Jaime Lannister is an angry Christmas elf, and other funnies

Twas the week before the week before Christmas, and all through the house, people were laughing at goofy stuff Game of Thrones cast members did, like when Nikolaj Coster-Waldau went on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and played a terrifying elf that sat on a bannister and frightened young children with stories about severed hands and red weddings. Here’s that:

“Lannister on bannisters” is just a stupid enough pun to work. I love it forever.

Over on YouTube, we check in with steve as he continues his out-of-order journey through the Game of Thrones. At this point, his gimmick of watching random episodes one at a time so as to maximize his confusion has worn a little thin since he’s now seen enough of the series to piece together what’s happening no matter which episode he watches. But he’s still a funny guy, and when he watches an episode as good as season 6’s “The Winds of Winter,” you don’t need a gimmick to be entertaining:

Finally, reader Austin sent in a hilarious video where his grandfather, a big Game of Thrones fan who’s seen every episode and even read the Song of Ice and Fire books, is asked to name several of the characters. Let’s watch.

Daenerys = Queen Daiquiri

Tyrion = Tyrone

Littlefinger = Pennypincher

Varys = Fat stuff

Catelyn = “She was killed at that red party.”

And of course: “That’s Cersei. She’s a bitch.” This guy’s the best. Thanks, Austin!
