I'm not sure if you heard the news, but Game of Thrones returned on Sunday. Before I confuse anyone with the ridiculousness of this post, I need to make one thing clear: I do not watch the show, sue me. For the past six years, I've been bothered, pestered, and straight-up begged to watch the show by my diehard fan of a brother. My friends didn't help either. With every single social media feed inundated by Westeros weirdness, I was understandably overwhelmed and confused, like, I thought Jon Snow was dead, why is he trending on Twitter?
Why would I start a show that everyone already was obsessed with? I had trouble justifying binge-watching seasons that just look *cold*, and who has that kind of time? I've clearly done a lot of thinking about why I shouldn't watch the show, but on Sunday, I said f*ck it, time to see what all the hype is about. What better way to get in on the most talked about show of the past decade than to start on the season 7 premiere? With no prior knowledge of the show, I ripped off the band aid and watched the episode, and let me tell you, I had a lot of thoughts.
Whether you've obsessively waited for season seven to return, or you're just as annoyed as I was with bearded men and long-haired women taking over your feeds, read on to see all the thoughts I had while watching Game of Thrones for the first time. (Seriously, does no one believe in haircuts there?)
Here goes nothing. . .
I know I have a ton of questions that would make any GOT fan roll their eyes far behind their head, but I'm convinced I finally understand what all the fuss is about. For anyone who doubted the show the way that I did in the past, it's worth giving it a shot, and I'm definitely going to start the series from the beginning, as soon as I have 60+ hours to spare!
