daveholmes: The really alarming thing about the George W. Bush/Game of Thrones kerfuffle is how many respectable news organizations use the phrase “decapitated head.”  UNLESS THE HEAD HAS HAD ITS HEAD CUT OFF, IT IS A SEVERED OR A DISEMBODIED HEAD.  Sorry to be a stickler, but somebody has to, and the people who are paid to be sticklers at respectable news organizations are asleep at the stickle.
