1. I got to piss off some GOT cosplayers this weekend

My city's major league baseball team's game this Sunday did a Game of Thrones event for people who bought special tickets. Got a dragon bobblehead; there was a replica of the Iron Throne that you could sit in for pictures (with or without the cosplayers), and then there was me and another guy... twisting balloons. Supposed to do swords and dragons I guess. Anyway, before the event started, I got my picture taken on the Throne with the cosplayers, and I said, "I feel like I should say something GOT instead of cheese when the picture is snapped."
"Say, 'Winter is coming!'" some of them suggested.
"No, I got this... a good one," I said.
We get settled in, the person with my phone goes to take the picture and asks, "Ready?"
"Frodo! You must take the Ring to Mount Doom!"
Cue groans, "Oh, no, you didn't," and some woman ringing a bell in my face, yelling, "Shame!"*

Later on, the guy dressed as Hodor asked me for a balloon door.

*Never seen an episode so I don't know who the Shame lady is.
