Most. Horrible. Episode. Ever. That about sums it up. You'd think at some point of time we will stop saying this every week but hey, not today.

Who! (SPOILERS. Avert yon eyes if ye wish to preserve yon innocence) Who kills one of the leads on the show like that!! Jon Snow got the 'Julius Caesar' treatment on Monday's episode as we are still trying to wrap our heads around it. Like so many people around the world who are in first few stages of the Loss Cycle: Denial and Anger. See for yourself:

George RR Martin sort of deserves it

Our thoughts exactly

Rushing for tissues, crying our eyes out

You should get an idea when Daenerys herself tweets this

Sorry random citizen

So not ok

Like a particular Snow we know

Truer words have never been spoken

OK. BYE. We're out.
