Don’t worry, by the start of season two, there’ll be a giant chair made of barnwood and picket fence pickets titled, “OOAK SteaMPUnK Hunger G4mES Harry p0ttEr GaMe 0f thr0nEs chair authentIC Real Barnwood 60,000$”
I’m determined for April to have a Game of Thrones replica throne to sit upon, while she shows us the latest in dirty re-sellers, like some kind of medieval superhero. I’ll make it happen if I have to blow everyone at HBO. I’ll need a little female help though for those straight men. It’s the least we could do. “A Lannister FJL always pays his debts.“
Because they’re smart enough to know that chunks of the demographic playing along at home wants to see a bit of the nip. Or a lot of the nip. Or hey, just wait until after 10pm and show the whole shebang to your heart’s content.
As Queen High Priestess of All Things Evil, one of you minions needs to buy this for me. Now. It totally goes with all of my furniture and I think it could be labeled ‘steampunk’.
I so want this – saw it last night. Sadly, 30,000 is out of my range. I was thinking of adding razors just to sure it cut anyone who sat in my throne. Excellent addition to my living room
diclosure: mega Game of Thrones fan and waiting impatiently for book 6
Also Q-tips? If you’re gonna spend $30,000 for this thing I’d invest in one of those mini vacuum hose things for cleaning computer keyboards. In fact I could probably use one of those myself, but I just use a paperclip to lever out the cat hair from my keyboard.
Just putting this out there… originally from this tweet:
What if the “game” in “Game of Thrones” was basketball, and the “thrones” were toilets, and it was about toilets that played basketball?
Therefore my boyfriend and I now watch Toilets Basketball. I would like to see this throne made into either a basketball hoop or a toilet. Then it would be worth the list price.
I’m a HUGE fan of the book series and the HBO show. Since I needed a new book to read while I wait for the 6th book, my friend suggested 50 shades of Grey. I couldn’t get past the first chapter, I had to force myself. Doesn’t even come close to A Song of Ice and Fire series.
To this day it still boggles my brainholes that such an awful Twilight fanfic (not that there are many good ones, mind) got published and is now going to be a movie.
But, on the bright side, at least GRRM got an HBO show. And Iron Throne replicas sold on behalf of his epic series. Ah, now I feel a little better.
I’m not sure I’d sit on it after a trip down the hall. Metals splinters are a bitch anywhere, so I don’t like the thought of a tiny iron spear in my ass.
I’ve read it’s not as comfortable as it looks (I know, I know, that seems highly impossible but hey, I’m going to have to take the former king’s word for it). That’s why you’ll also need a custom Regretsy ass pillow, to soothe and cushion on those long days of listening to the simpletons and the snobs alike complain about Game of Thrones and related things.
I think you’ll need to borrow Bronc’s butt balm if you sit on that for too long! Does it come with a joffrey douche-face mask, or a Cersei bitch-face mask?
I think I have a problem, I looked at the price and thought, “that’s expensive, but if I had the money I’d get it” then, and this is the odd part, I looked at the shipping and thought to myself, “WHAT THE FUCK?! There is no way in hell I would by that shit!”
How many ways could one rearrange a throne made of swords in their living room? “Honey, move the big pointy chair closer to the window, I can’t see the TV.”
I’ve actually sat on this at the British Sci Fi & Fantasy convention (yes, geek, I know!) and it’s surprisingly comfy! Feels as though it is made of plastic and it would make an AWESOME garden chair.
Hmmm, I wonder much it would be to just get the thousand swords and hire a blacksmith to hammer them for 59 days? Hey, you’d save the shipping cost. Buy local!
You should post this in a thread in the iWant section of the forum. Especially because that would look totes cool if you were sitting in it and you had say… Some ball pythons in your lap.

No. These are handmade in Bali by indigenous craftsmen. I mean one. One indigenous artist.

Well the good news is that there are no straight men at HBO.
June 6, 2012 at 3:25 pm
Then why does the show have so many boobies?
June 6, 2012 at 4:04 pm

Allow me to explain…
(I hope that worked.)
June 6, 2012 at 11:11 am
Perfect for lording it over the FJL. Will make my increasingly desperate attempts at arse-licking a bit uncomfortable though.
June 6, 2012 at 11:15 am
I’m certain there’s a really witty ‘butthurt’ joke in here somewhere, but someone really witty will have to make it.

So it won’t hack you to bits like the real thing?
June 6, 2012 at 11:12 am
If we sit on the Iron Throne, do we instantly become complete cunts?
June 6, 2012 at 11:13 am
And would anyone notice?
June 6, 2012 at 1:53 pm
I thought we already were.
June 6, 2012 at 2:32 pm
Yes unless you already were one before sitting on the throne, Joffrey

Dream of Aeron office chair has now been replaced. GAME OF CUBICLES.

When you play the game of cubicles, you win…or you end up on the party planning committee.

HBO-scammer don’t give a shit! It just takes what it wants!

(more closely resembles a porcupine, BUT THAT’S NOT IN THE MEME).
June 6, 2012 at 11:13 am
When ever I see or hear “Game of Thrones” I imagine a chess board with all kinds of chairs on it. (never saw or read any of it)
June 6, 2012 at 11:48 am
I imagine toilets. Lots and lots of toilets.
June 6, 2012 at 4:18 pm
And now I do too.
June 7, 2012 at 2:58 am
Where’s the toilet paper holder? I see plenty of places to cut the tp …
June 6, 2012 at 11:13 am
I’ve still not watched the finale. I’m not ready to have nothing to watch for the next several months.
June 6, 2012 at 11:14 am
For $30k I’d expect it to be made from real swords. How else would I maim rude houseguests?
June 6, 2012 at 11:39 am
If it’s going to be an authentic replica, it better cut me every time I sit down, too.
June 6, 2012 at 11:49 am
I so want this – saw it last night. Sadly, 30,000 is out of my range. I was thinking of adding razors just to sure it cut anyone who sat in my throne. Excellent addition to my living room

June 6, 2012 at 12:24 pm
For $30k, this fucker better come with a Tetanus shot.
June 6, 2012 at 12:48 pm
And a hot male nurse to give it to me.
June 6, 2012 at 11:15 am
I feel powerful just thinking about sitting in it.
My kid doesn’t really need a college fund, a therapy fund, maybe.
June 6, 2012 at 11:16 am
Making them pay for College themselves builds character. Bitter, resentful character. As does making them clean this throne.
June 6, 2012 at 11:19 am
It seems like it has a lot of places to collect dust, too.
June 6, 2012 at 12:33 pm
asecondsolution, great minds … I was imagining having to Q-tip out all the cat hair.
June 6, 2012 at 2:16 pm
Yeah I was originally going to say cat hair, but then I realized that maybe not everyone has 4 cats…
June 6, 2012 at 2:19 pm
Also Q-tips? If you’re gonna spend $30,000 for this thing I’d invest in one of those mini vacuum hose things for cleaning computer keyboards. In fact I could probably use one of those myself, but I just use a paperclip to lever out the cat hair from my keyboard.
June 6, 2012 at 8:09 pm
The sticky part of post it notes work beautifully.
June 6, 2012 at 11:15 am
Looks utterly awesome, yet uncomfortable. But perhaps that’s it’s lure.
I’m not watching it either. Waiting to finish books first. Yes, I’m behind in my pop-culture.
June 6, 2012 at 11:16 am
Holy shit, I need that. Um…who wants to help me rob a bank? We’ll get enough to buy two and we can be twinsies!
June 6, 2012 at 11:17 am
I still have my fingers crossed for a finale breakdown over on CF4L …
also, I think I just found my new beach chair.
June 6, 2012 at 11:44 am
Well, the matching Iron Beach Umbrella *is* only $7250!
June 6, 2012 at 11:19 am
Not to be a dick, well, maybe kinda to be a dick… but you’ll actually need $31,800.
June 6, 2012 at 2:53 pm
April HAS the $1,800. She’s just short $30,000.

My friend posted this to FB earlier today. I asked if it came with a lifetime supply of band-aids.
June 6, 2012 at 11:26 am
This is for people who ALSO love Fifty Shades of Grey. They can get their BDSM AND a place to sit all in one piece of furniture.
June 6, 2012 at 11:45 am
Never read Fifty Shades of Grey and have no interest to.
I have, however, read and rather well liked the first 4 books of the GoT series.
And it has nothing to do with whether I like BDSM or not.
June 6, 2012 at 11:55 am
Actually, reading these books (and I have read them all), is certainly an exercise in S and M–careful who you love!
June 6, 2012 at 8:07 pm
I dunno, I’ve read (and own all but the last 2) John Norman’s Gor series.
SoIaF is tame compared to those.

At least we’ll get to see 60 hours of Game of Thrones awesomeness, while they only ‘get’ to suffer through 10 hours of blech.
June 6, 2012 at 11:27 am
This is pretty cool, but it’d be even better if it were on casters so I could roll around the room with it.
June 6, 2012 at 11:31 am
I am going to submit this for an office supply request. There’s NO WAY they can turn me down. Do you think it comes with an ergonomical assessment?
June 6, 2012 at 11:27 am
Why do none of these people respond to my friend requests?
June 6, 2012 at 11:27 am
About the big chair – is that really something Bronc is going to want to sit on after cycling for 300 miles?
June 6, 2012 at 7:11 pm
I’m not sure I’d sit on it after a trip down the hall. Metals splinters are a bitch anywhere, so I don’t like the thought of a tiny iron spear in my ass.

I don’t know anything about ‘Game of Thrones’, but I misread ‘Shop the HBO UK’ as ‘Shop Drunk’. Perfect, all of us fat, jealous losers do that, right?
June 6, 2012 at 11:33 am
Just gonna leave this here: http://geeks.thedailywh.at/2012/06/05/supercut-of-the-day-2/
Maybe Tyrion and I can share the throne?
June 6, 2012 at 1:17 pm
I’d happily sit at his feet!
June 6, 2012 at 11:41 am
Unfortunately, I’m going to need $60,000.
Because the husband simply won’t be happy sitting at my feet, so he’ll need his own.
June 6, 2012 at 11:43 am
All that attention at the end of the description about the chair’s “impressive size” makes me think someone’s compensating for something.
Possibly something that was maimed as a result of sitting in a chair made out of swords.
June 6, 2012 at 11:48 am
I read the impressive size, but read the measurements as inches at first rather than feet, and thought, “well, that’s not that impressive!”

June 6, 2012 at 12:59 pm
A sack of lemons, to achieve either look.
June 6, 2012 at 11:47 am
I was expecting “local pickup only” but I suppose $1800 probably isnt that much to ship a 12 ton razor sharp chair.
June 6, 2012 at 11:47 am
I think I have a problem, I looked at the price and thought, “that’s expensive, but if I had the money I’d get it” then, and this is the odd part, I looked at the shipping and thought to myself, “WHAT THE FUCK?! There is no way in hell I would by that shit!”
June 6, 2012 at 11:59 am
Me too.
I was all like, “$30k? Whatevs… $1800, are you shitting me?”
June 6, 2012 at 12:21 pm
I feel sorry for the workmen who’d have to carry this heavy thing up stairs!
Imagine getting a sofa up a narrow stairwell, only ten times heavier and pointier.
June 6, 2012 at 11:54 am
I’d like that in my living room, except for the 30 grand, and it weighs 350 pounds, so you could never move it unless you kept it on plastic sliders?
June 6, 2012 at 11:59 am

Apropos of nothing and not Game of Thrones related, but is there anyone on earth that is in a SIMPLE relationship? They’re all complicated.
Sorry. The facebook post part made me think of that.
June 6, 2012 at 2:58 pm
I’m not in any relationship, it’s that simple.
June 8, 2012 at 5:37 am
Yes. I am in a simple relationship. Married, monogamous. It’s the exes and the extended family that complicate stuff.
June 6, 2012 at 11:58 am
Only if it comes with a holographic Joffrey that I can kill. Repeatedly.

“But only the true King of England could pull the sword from the throne, and so he named it ‘ASSCALIBUR’!”

After getting poked by that a few times you’ll wish they carried Nerf swords.

I actually loled at Dany’s like. Its the exclamation point that makes it.

Just would give a guy another excuse to use a bad pick up line

have you bought a sword lately? not cheap. :/
June 6, 2012 at 2:38 pm
But how will I know if it’ll go with my room color?! Sunrise Meadow doesn’t mesh with just any old thing!
June 6, 2012 at 2:45 pm
For $30,000, I want a padded seat, needlepoint pillows and a matching throw!
Give it a couple of weeks and the Chinese will be making knock offs, and the shipping from China will even be cheaper!
June 6, 2012 at 3:57 pm
And the Iron Throne will become the Lead Throne. Yummy.
