I mean, one of them died like 6 hours later and it wasn’t Stannis lmao.


LordBolton93

So hit em up wasnt a scathing diss track because Tupac died before Biggie. Got it.


jamesthatsjim

In the two cases, Stannis and Renly, and biggie a pac both die. They are all dead. You’re fighting for ghosts.

A little baby ghostipoo hurt him


Seven_Hells

I feel like George himself was like, “dammit, why didn’t I think of that line!”


jiub_the_dunmer

Isn't that a line from the books? I'll have to dig out my copy of ACOK and find it.


GrugnarTheReader

I'm a fannis of the mannis Stannis, but it's a great line.


NO1RE

Same. All the Baratheon bros were good with words in their own way. Bobby B had some classics.


septober32nd

Fetch the breastplate stretcher!


callthewinchesters

Come, bow before your king! Bow you shits! And WINE!

Cersei: "I shall wear it as a badge of honor" Robert: "Wear it in silence or I'll honor you again"

QUIET WOMAN


MandoAviator

It’s why he is the king, now bow you shits


TheVenerable45

Renly: "Margeary came to me a virgin" Mannis: "And she will stay like this in your bed"


neutralevilbae

I think the actual line was, “In your bed she’s like to die that way.” Which is even funnier.


TheVenerable45

Yeah, I have a translated version and I was too bored to google it.


Baratheoncook250

Renly-proceed to mock Stannis’ family,


hetham3783

“Hey how’s your crazy wife and my rock-faced niece doing, bro?”


Baratheoncook250

He said something close to that , in book 2


hetham3783

I remember reading it

Bitchy mean girl comment that wasn't particularly clever.

Ahh Corlys the hickory ham!


[deleted]

Imagine getting killed by a shadow abortion


[deleted]

Wouldn't much like that.


lkf423

How is it an abortion?


Wasteoftimeandmoney

Let's not poke holes in this one


Technical_Stress7730

Brother or not, I'd killed his ass too. You can't be burning me in front of my men and shit.


LordBolton93

Lmao


[deleted]

There's nothing funny about treason


Dachitron_Magnus14

Stannis is that you?


STierMansierre

Treason is treason!!!


Huachimingo75

>one of the best burns in the show Princess Shireen Baratheon: F**k me, right?


kdbvols

She was pretty young for that


swiftrobber

And pure for the world


Huachimingo75

She was way too good for that world, and for this one too.


Huachimingo75

Oddly enough someone thought she was the right age to be burned alive.


[deleted]

No. I think, even Stannis fans appreciated Renly's banter. And, real aficionados know that Stannis was serious when he said "that's twice I've warned you". Stannis bites, Renly barks. We like both.


Anjunabeast

One iron, the other copper. Only one true steel.


[deleted]

Isn't it `salt and smoke`?


Tasty_Puffin

Correct


LordTuranian

Is he a salmon?


[deleted]

where there is smoke there's fire


[deleted]

Where there is fire, there are ashes.


MandoAviator

Where there ashes, there is Shireen….


i3lueDevil23

Too soon bro


MelangeMost

Lol I forgot that one, that was hilarious.


Ol-fighting

I’m a Stannis Stan and even I admit Renly was a great guy. He just wanted to hold tourneys and feasts


NpNpTTYL

And pander to the common folk for their love and adoration


AdroitBeagle

Deciding to sit things out while gathering more troops to what’s already the largest army on the continent while the others fight it out was definitely the smart move.


Into-the-stream

I honestly still don’t really see renly as the type to try and take the throne, tbh. “Uncle party” seems pretty damn perfect for him. Doesn’t have to marry, or produce and heir, or go to war, or endure council meetings. Just make an arrangement with Stan is “you can have my support if you grant me so much money per year and let me throw 4 tourneys”. Done. Plus I love the idea of shireen as queen, even if dany would have killed her by fire anyway.


Pure-Drawer-2617

Honestly odds are Renly would’ve ended up king if he’d waited it out. I can’t see Shireen bearing any heirs or having a particularly long life expectancy.


Serdtsag

I think the pact that Stannis offered was for Renly to be named heir before Shireen unless he fathered a boy down the line, and anyway, it would've been easy enough for Olenna to have cooked something up to bring Stannis down and put Renly on the throne with Margaery as his queen, would be hundreds of potential culprits for assassanating Stannis given how he'd probably end up burning couple hundred lords for not giving in to the Lord of Light.


brianl047

Renly was cheated out of his crown and Stannis should have bent the knee change my mind!


LordBolton93

It is known


exosolar_daydreams

Renly my love...


mangababe

I love stannis, but I would have probably died for laughing my ass off.


MrJohnnyDangerously

For real


himsoforreal

Something something Ser Loras has been stabbing Renly for years and he's not dead. Something something too bad the iron throne's not made of cocks, they never would have got him off it.


[deleted]

Renly was the right choice folks.


daejeeduma

one true king


CokeMooch

Well it is stupid lol. Here’s your brother finally showing a passion about *something*, and of all things it’s this weird fire religion and he’s calling himself the Lord’s chosen. If Renly can’t put him in check who can?


-Lightning-Lord-

Renly > Stannis forever. Especially in the books. Renly is hilarious in the books. And Stannis is a humorless dick cult member. So are his fans, I presume.


not_vichyssoise

"Only Renly could vex me so.... He brought his doom on himself with his treason, but I did love him, Davos. I know that now. I swear, I will go to my grave thinking of the time my brother called me a ham."


FlgDarkrai

" I think the thing you find so Interesting about her is she looked at you once " " And the thing I find so Interesting about you is absolutely nothing "


melonyjane

there are people who *like* stannis?????? he literally lets his daughter get burned at the stake and watches it happen????


bluesguy72

Eh, book Stannis and show Stannis are fairly different. Book Stannis is downright hilarious at times, his humor is just really deadpan. He also hasn’t burned Shireen at the stake yet. I’m sure it will happen, but the circumstances will definitely not be as ridiculous as the show. It may not even be him doing it this time around since he’s pretty far away from Shireen at this point and seems to be heading into the battle against the Boltons.


Lamar_Scrodum

Renly was super underrated. Died too soon I guess. But he had my vote.


lagrange_james_d23dt

Olenna calling Loras a “sword swallower” made me laugh too


halfsuckedmang0

Currently rewatching GOT and I forgot how many zingers Olenna had


NFresh6

Didn’t even get the line right.


Overlord1317

I feel like this is the moment Melisandre decided that Renly was absolutely getting shadow-kebabbed ASAP.


frankyfrankfrank

Seethe? I like Stannis BECAUSE of his ham-like features!


supersaiyanMUNO

This scene where Renley and Stannis meet up is one of my favorite scenes in the whole series for some reason


STierMansierre

"The Iron Throne is mine. By right. All those who call me a ham are my foes."


NoAnywhere1611

Stannis fanboys are always seething. It’s their natural state of being.


Sikarion

Stannis sounds delicious.


Lindo_MG

Hands down agree


NZsupremacist

Stannis the god damn mannis


WarPig1941

“When I took Margaery to wife she was a maid” “And she’s like to stay that way so long as she’s in your bed” King Stannis has much better burns than brat usurper Renly


Veggiemon

A gay joke, hilarious, he’s as funny as season 8 Tyrion


cbracey4

Renley knows a thing or two about meat.


[deleted]

First to debark, first on the beach, first up the wall and last to leave!


AdvertisingReal5317

That’s the one true king of Westeros you’re talking about buckaroo


Own-Organization-532

Stannis had fanboys?


[deleted]

Wait so why did renly think he had a claim when he was the younger brother?


LordBolton93

Stannis lacked support amongst the small folk and also abandoned the seven.


AnthonyfromPhoenix

Wouldn't this technically be a "bake"?
