The only person I ever knew who drank Zima was a Bush voter from upstate New York.

And the biggest badass, in my opinion, is either the Greatjon (a direwolf ate his fingers and he laughed) or Barristan Selmy.

Truthfully, unless someone comes up with a better alternative than Greatjon Im going with Arya....cause a wolf ate his fingers (his FREAKING FINGERS!!!) and it made him chuckle.

And Arya, I bow to your knowledge of all things herbal. Let this be a lesson kids, dont comment about things you have no knowledge of (damn you security clearance and LAN people who could be reading this)

Dany has the baddest pets but does not win the badass of the week contest....

Even though this paraphrased passage is a close second

Strong Belwas lets each man cut him, so he can count the scars and know how many men he's killed. Prepare liver and onions, Strong Belwas has a hearty appetite after he's done his killing.

i dont mind randyl tarly actually. i reakon hes funny cos hes just so full of what should b and what cant b. n im not a fan of sam, i know ppl who like sam, but i cant warm to him. but for a "baddass" as u lot say, im on the smith from castle black. cant remember his name right now. im sure u all know who im on about. but he had 1 arm and he still wanted ta kill them bloody ginats lol.

Donal Noye.
Not quite badass enough to survive the encounter though was he?

My Buck's on Sam...

Martin has a way of introducing a character .. and through a writer's mastery able to 'change' the reader's outlook on the character due to the characters actions or reactions in the book.

more iconic characters would be Jaime and The Hound.

I think that Samwell Tarley has a bigger role to play .. and will find his courage. He is Sam the Slayer after all. (forshadowing, anyone?)

he killed a Giant with a normal sword with one arm in close quarters, and you gonna whine about the fact he did not survive it?

Sam the kin-slayer. I dont think so somehow. If Sam somehow faces Randel I think he'd let him live but disgrase him or shame him if it ever came to that which is doubtful but he needs to be taken down someway

[southron sword]

yeah, see kiwi bird knows where im commin from. he did allright. y do baddasses have to live? it shouldnt make them any less baddass.

Okay, I think thirteen year old girls who traffic with witches and sorcerers, then kill them and who conquer cities are pretty damn bad ass but maybe that's just me. I never heard of Randyll or Donal Noye or any of these others doing that. And who's your dragon mama?

[Werthead]

Hey! Credit where credit is due! The Randyll Tarly Badass description was my work after one night after too many vodkas and staring at the legendary Badass of the Week website!

sorry but to me she isnt a baddass, obviously physically she aint all that much on her own (without her dragons and protectors), and secondly she aint all that cunning so far and what often got hand whe needed. The only badass thing she did was stepping into the fire, but to me she reads as having a rational yet insane moment (if that is possible) at the time

Welcome to the Dany-aint-all-that bandwagon Kiwi, Ill be the conductor for this trip.....

You can sit anywhere ya like....theres never anyone but me here.

Im just ecstatic I got a passenger.

[the smiling weirwood]

A little girl who lost her family, her home, and her innocence all in one blow and kept on despite everything without having her spirit broken is pretty damn strong. She IS a f***ing dragon. Watch out or she'll eat you

[TK-421]

I'm with SW on this. Dany, is definetly a viable candidate for the Badass of the Week (I hope Werthead, you are keeping score here). Not too Mothers of 3, count them, 3 dragons, conquerer of cities, killer of slaver, heirs to the throne, whips in the face "A dragon is a slave to no one. Dracaris!<sp?>" around.

But The Hound is my favourite badass...just the best badass you can find unlike some obscure one-armed guy.

Oh, and Werthead...shame on you for glorifying an a#$hole like Randyll
