In anticipation of Season 2 I decided that I wanted a Game of Thrones poster - who doesn’t right? I also decided to buy three extras and give them away. I’m feeling generous and wanna share my GoT love. Each poster is 24x36, so normal poster size. I’ll pick three winners. The first place winner will get their choice of the three posters above, the second place will get their choice (between the remaining two) and the third place will get whichever hasn’t been chosen. If you are picked for 2nd or 3rd place and don’t like either of the posters please let know and I’ll pick someone else.

Rules:

  • You don’t have to be following me so don’t feel obligated.
  • You have to feel comfortable with giving me your address and full name. I’ll ship anywhere - including international, so don’t worry about that.
  • Only reblog once. No spamming! I will be checking and If I see that you aren’t following this simple rule, you’ll be disqualified.
  • Likes do count and it will give you an extra entry.
  • The winners will be chosen by a random number generator so I won’t be playing favorites or anything like that.
  • I’d like to pick the winners on April 1st since that is when the second season premieres. I know that’s fast but hey it’s my giveaway. I may or may not extend it, we’ll see.
  • I’ll contact the winner via askbox, so please be sure those are open. If the chosen winners don’t respond within 48 hours I’ll be picking a new winner. That goes for all three.
  • That’s it! Happy blogging.
I was the fifth drummer in Nirvana, they had A LOT of drummers. They were from Aberdeen, Washington.. And so, but their early drummers, were so… The people that were in Nirvana before I joined were just bananas, they were all just crazy. One of them drove a truck through, like, a supermarket window once with, like, the mayor’s daughter in the truck. So, but, the first time I met the first drummer we were at a laundromat and he comes in… and he hands me some quarters and he goes, ‘I’m gonna get in the drier, put those quarters in once you close the door.’” - Dave Grohl.

Interviewer: “Are you pro Clinton?”

Kurt Cobain: “Oh, yeah. I voted for him. I would have rather had Jerry Brown. I contributed my hundred dollars. But I’m definitely happy that Clinton’s in.”

Interviewer: “Would you play at the White House if they asked you to?”

Kurt Cobain: “[Laughs] If we could have some kind of influence on something, yeah. I know that Chelsea likes us a lot, so maybe Chelsea could say, “Dad, do this & do that! Nirvana says so!” [Laughs] Sure, I’d play for the president. And Chelsea seems like a pretty neat person-Birkenstock-wearing kid. Amy Carter’s pretty cool too, from what I’ve heard. She’s been seen at Butthole Surfers concerts!”

Our hometown was horrible, there was no kind of social outlet at all because everyone was so negative and macho all the time, so because we hated all that we were just staying in our rooms all the time playing guitar or whatever. It’s very hard to deal with these social cliques, you’re always expected to be in a certain social category for different walks of life.
Kurt Cobain, January 1990 (via beenason)

  • Interviewer:

    How do you feel about Guns N' Roses fans coming to see you?

  • Kurt:

    Well, when we played that No on 9 benefit in Portland, I said something about Guns N' Roses. Nothing nasty-I think I said, "And now, for our next song, 'Sweet Child o' Mine.'" But some kid jumped onstage and said, "Hey, man, Guns N' Roses plays awesome music, and Nirvana plays awesome music. Let's just get along and work things out, man!" And I just couldn't help but say, "No, kid, you're really wrong. Those people are total sexist jerks, and the reason we're playing this show is to fight homophobia in a real small way. The guy is a fucking sexist and a racist and a homophobe, and you can't be on his side and be on our side. I'm sorry that I have to divide this up like this, but it's something you can't ignore. And besides they can't write good music." [Laughs]

  • Interviewer:

    You know, you were probably taking money from people who were voting yes on 9-but they really wanted to see Nirvana.

  • Kurt:

    [Laughs] Right! Chris went to a Guns N' Roses concert when they played here with Metallica a couple of months ago, and he went backstage, and there were these two bimbo girls who looked like they walked out of a Warrant video. They were sitting on the couch in hopes of sucking Axl's dick or something, and one of them said, "Chris, we saw you at that No on 9 benefit! We're voting yes on 9! You kissed Kurt on the lips! That was disgusting!" [Laughs] To know that we affect people like that-it's kind of funny. The sad thing is that there's no penetrating them. After all that, after all the things those girls had seen us do, that was the one thing that sticks in their minds.

  • Interviewer:

    You used to push people's buttons like that in high school, didn't you?

  • Kurt:

    Oh, absolutely. I used to pretend I was gay just to fuck with people. I've had the reputation of being a homosexual every since I was 14. It was really cool, because I found a couple of gay friends in Aberdeen-which is almost impossible. How I could ever come across a gay person in Aberdeen is amazing! But I had some really good friends that way. I got beat up a lot, of course, because of my association with them. People just thought I was weird at first, just some fucked-up kid. But once I got the gay tag, it gave me the freedom to be able to be a freak and let people know that they should just stay away from me. Instead of having to explain to someone that they should just stay the fuck away from me-I'm gay, so I can't even be touched. It made for quite a few scary experiences in alleys walking home from school, though.

  • Interviewer:

    You actually got beat up?

  • Kurt:

    Oh, yeah. Quite a few times.

  • Interviewer:

    And you used to spray-paint GOD IS GAY on people's trucks?

  • Kurt:

    That was a lot of fun. The funniest thing about that was not actually the act but the next morning. I'd get up early in the morning to walk through the neighborhood that I'd terrorized to see the aftermath. That was the worst thing I could have spray-painted on their cars. Nothing else would have been more effective. Aberdeen was depressing, and there were a lot of negative things about it, but it was really fun to fuck with people all the time. I loved to go to parties-jock keggers-and just run around drunk and obnoxious, smoking cigars and spitting onthe backs of these big redneck jocks and them not realizing it. By the end of the evening, usually I'd end up offending a girl, and she'd get her boyfriend to come beat me up. [Laughs]

  • Interviewer:

    Because people thought you were gay and you had gay friends, did you ever wonder if you might be gay?

  • Kurt:

    Yeah, absolutely. See I've always wanted male friends that I could be real intimate with and talk about important things with and be as affectionate with that person as I would be with a girl. Throughout my life, I've always been really close with girls and made friends with girls. And I've always been a really sickly, feminine person anyhow, so I thought I was gay for a while because I didn't find any of the girls in my high school attractive at all. They had really awful haircuts and fucked-up attitudes. So I thought I would try to be gay for a while, but I'm just more sexually attracted to women. But I'm really glad that I found a few gay friends, because it toally saved me from becoming a monk or something. I mean, I'm definitely gay in spirit, and I probably could be bisexual. But I'm married, and I'm more attracted to Courtney than I ever have been toward a person, so there's no point in trying to sow my oats at this point. [Laughs] If I wouldn't have found Courtney, I probably would have carried on with a bisexual life-style. But I just find her toally attractive in all ways.

  • Interviewer:

    She has been described as a fag hag

  • Kurt:

    Oh, she is. That was all she did for about five or six years of her life-hang out in gay clubs. She learned everything about perfume and fashion from her friends.
