Kat, I thoroughly enjoyed reading your review. And as I have just recently started watching the show, I think i'll grind through this for the 1k.
memes were an expertly crafted addition to an already great read.

Don't you ogle Daenerys, she's MY girlfriend.
You just keep your eyes where they belong. In fact, don't even watch the first 4 episodes.

the cancer is that meme's are so popular now it's stupid, overused, and half the time used wrongly. i mean, im no /b/tard by any means but even i think that the meme flood is dumb.

Pretty sure the definition of /b/tard is someone who uses /b/tard in a serious manner...
But 4chan didn't create memes, and the concept has been around longer than the Internet has been available for home pc users. The actual word was coined in the 70s to describe idea transmission through pop culture. Music has been a meme in the past, as have stories, commercials and tv shows.
If anything, people who think there's a way to "wrongly" use a meme are more appropriate to liken to a cancer, because if a meme is a gene in the social genetics, someone trying to stop progress and instead wants the same exact thing duplicated over and over and over, long past the time it's supposed to have died is social developmentally cancerous.
There is no wrong meme, just wrong people.

i dont believe i got served by any means. i just stated my opinion, and i still think that. meme's are so overused i cant stand seeing them. people who have no idea on how to create or even the basis of a meme. perfect example: a dumbass decides to be funny when his friend isnt talking to him much, so he creates a "Y U NO TALK TO ME" meme to post on his wall. thats not funny. you saw a Y U NO pic and all of a sudden you know everything about it and how to use it? doesnt work like that. you just created something totally wrong. it's like saying Skrillex is the greatest dubstep artist ever and you dont know jack shit about the genre.
p.s.
fuck Skrillex.

edit:
i dont take too kindly to you implying im a 4chan elitist Kat. how does saying the word /b/tard in a serious manner constitute me being one? what sense does that make? i hang around at least 2 of em, so i do by some degree know the way the chan, reddit, and 9gag work although i have no use for them, so i never get on them. it's a war between them all thats about as retarded as the sites themselves.
p.s.
fuck Skrillex.

Are you serious right now? You're trolling, right? Those quotes right there should answer your question, though.
Your entire logic is based off some misconception that the Internet created memes, and that there is some right and wrong way to do something.
Guess what? Neither of those is true. It's like music and etymology. "Correct" is simply what the majority decides.
That said, this is not a thread for a discussion of memes and popular culture. It's a review and discussion of a mediocre RPG. Let's stay on topic.
