What's confusing me about this whole "Sam is annoying!" saga (besides it being completely ridiculous, of course) is that practically all the reasons to hate Sam could also be applied to Sansa. She's awkward, she had entirely unrealistic expectations, she keeps moaning about everything.. And yet nobody here hates Sansa. I'd like to think that it's not just because she's a pretty girl instead of an overweight dude, but other than that entirely shallow reason, I cannot think of anything..
I think sansa's annoying as hell. because she doesn't have too many redeeming qualities, no loyalty, no exceptional intelligence, she's smart enough to survive but not help herself, nothing except looks, which honestly don't mean too much when it comes to liking characters.
EDIT: i'll admit i've dated some girls that whiny and its kind of a problem for me now lol.

Sansa is normally close to interesting guys that steal the show... Littlefinger, Tyrion, Geoffrey.... She herself? Why care about her, she's just a prisoner-princess that sooner or later will get saved :p.
Sam on the other hand is pretty much on his own now so your stuck with his actions and not much interaction with awesome/hated/whatever vis a vis happens...

Did sam really ran away without picking his new magic weapon that kills white walkers? It would be a good reason to hate sam over sansa xD

For the "Sam is an idiot" discussion: what I like so much about Game of Thrones is the level of stupidity the characters are showing. It is just about right. It is neither the flat "everyone is a hero and always does exactly the good and smart thing" and it is not Jeeper's Creeper's idiocy of "hold my legs so I can lean into that well head first".
Ned was an honest fool, Catelyn a loving mother and Sam is a bit of a coward but they are all believable at that.

I loved the parallel between Daario and Jaqen. I immediately thought back to the last time we saw him when he gave Arya the Braavosi coin.

I am so pissed after watching the new episode of Game of Thrones last night. WHY THE HELL DID SAM NOT PICK UP THE DAGGER? I seriously wanted to jump in there and slap him in the face. Jesus christ, that one act made me so mad.

Was it said that Daario is from Braavos or are we only assuming that?

I believe it was said, they said one of the captains was from Bravos no?

You did. Stannis' daughter has been teaching him. Last episode had about 30 seconds of him struggling with a sentence from the book she gave him.

I thought the entire group of mercenaries were from Braavos.

no, if I recall right they mentioned a Bravosi, singularly, within the Second Sons leadership.

I looked back, and it was only one person. But it was Mero, not Daario. I guess he might also be from Braavos, but it'd be odd since they introduced Mero to the queen as "Mero of Braavos" but didn't do the same for the others.

I can't be sure here but is it possible that you're mixing up the part where they described the three coins, one of them being Bravosi?
Edit: Don't mind me then.

Ahh well who knows then : P out of the past 2 Bravosi we've seen, he seems the most like he's from Bravos (foreign as well as mannered and well spoken, Syrio/Jaq ringing bells? : D)
