But as much as we love the Khajiit and their silly accents,
there's one thing that we simply cannot abide: Argonians. Stupid, slow, scaly
and lazy, the Argonians are a blight on the economy of Skyrim, and also just
offensive to look at. Worst of all, one of them actually suggested that they
get married to my pure-blood Nord, Kraktar. I'm not racist, but I see no call
for mixing human and lizard blood. Haven't you ever seen Super Mario Bros? Ask John Leguizamo about it - he'll tell you.
Meanwhile, in Game of
Thrones there's not a single lizard-man in sight. Granted, there aren't any
cat-people either, but that's a price we'll gladly pay for not having Argonians
lurking in every alley waiting to take our jobs and/or impregnate our
daughters. In fact, there really aren't any minorities at all to speak of in
the extremely white first season of Game
of Thrones, except for the generally savage and
kind-of-tan-maybe-a-little-ethnic Dothraki, which...is kind of troubling now that
we think of it. Still though: No filthy Argonians.
