"Sunset found her squatting in the grass, groaning. Every stool was looser than the one before, and smelled fouler. By the time the moon came up she was shitting brown water. The more she drank, the more she shat, but the more she shat, the thirstier she grew, and her thirst sent her crawling to the stream to suck up more water."

>>	Anonymous Thu May 8 15:41:56 2014 No.4868850 >>4868837 I am absolutely convinced that George R.R. Martin has a scat fetish. Even if you accept the conceit that he's writing about the messier parts of life in a medieval setting, he mentions shit and shitting way too fucking much.

>>	Anonymous Thu May 8 15:54:44 2014 No.4868910 >>4868850 Have you even read the books? He is just using the same ideas over and over. It isn't a scat fetish, its reused filler.

>>	Anonymous Thu May 8 16:03:20 2014 No.4868942 >>4868910 Of all the filler he could choose, he chooses poop and pooping? Something's up.

It sounds like you've never shat brown water before.

I ate a piece of cheese last night that had been sitting in my refrigerator for quite some time. It smelled stale and fungal, in the way that many people compare body odors to "stinky cheese," but it wasn't moldy so I ate some anyway. I spent several minutes suppressing my gag reflex as I swallowed. My girlfriend told me I was crazy.

I spent the next hour sitting on the pot, hunched forward as my abdomen squirmed in agony, while my arseful of brown stool poured forth in a liquid river whose headwaters must have lain in some alien sphere where viscosity had no bearing on the laws of molecular physics.

When my body had finally purged itself, I spent the rest of the evening sobbing while reading and re-reading the "shitting brown water" passage in my dog-eared copy of ADWD until my tears bled the ink illegibly. My girlfriend left me the next morning and now I'm sitting alone in our apartment masturbating to Game of Thrones. Don't mock what you know nothing about.

HAROOO, brown water, and that shitty S&M scene are the low points of the books. They're also the sections that represent the series as a whole for many people on here. With the shows shitty advertisements and disregard for subtlety I wont blame them, initially I was excited to see my only favorite fantasy series adapted to the silver screen, but it's too hit or miss.

>>	Anonymous Fri May 9 08:41:23 2014 No.4871741 He describes people getting raped, or vomiting blood as they die. I don't see why describing someone shitting is any more shocking or fetish-y than those.

I don't know whether you're being facetious about his killing off of so many characters or if you actually read that

I don't think he's ever said lotr was bad as much as he has that it was a bit too unrealistic and overly-idealized even for fantasy, or something to that effect. His admiration/the influence he takes from Tolkien is very apparent even if he veers off in a very different direction. In an odd way, he seems to Tolkien what Nietzsche was to Schopenhauer

>>	Anonymous Sat May 10 01:48:52 2014 No.4874734 >>4872147 It would be absurd for George R. R. "Stoneheart" Martin to complain about characters coming back from the dead, subtly changed.

>Tolkien made the wrong choice when he brought Gandalf back. Screw Gandalf. He had a great death and the characters should have had to go on without him.
