Game of Thrones gives us a lot to “internet around” with. From Jonerys (the couple name of Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen) to the hotly-hyped, impending Cleganebowl, viewers catch moments and riff on them into abstraction. The closing scene of Sunday’s “Winterfell” episode featured an intense cross-courtyard stare between Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) and Bran Stark (Isaac Hempstead-Wright), the boy he threw out a window in the show’s first episode, when Bran was ten years old. Time is pretty weird on this show so now Bran is fifteeeeeen?
I will now be calling this impending conflict JaiBranBowl. Many good citizens of social media, memed the moment, and since I’m always online, I have collected the five best JaiBranBowl memes for you to enjoy. Here they are in VERY INTENTIONAL order:
5) Fergie – “London Bridge”
