I actually felt sorry for Georgie...

  • He was an unlucky guy, maybe, but he should have died. Just because of that he tried to kill Bigby at TCM's hideout, I didn't care.

    Bluebeard is not more well known than Georgie and I love that you refer to being impaled with a sword as "a single stab wound". lol!

  • Who says I am taking anything personally? I was merely calling you out for being a bit condescending.

    "I'm assuming you haven't read much of the comics then."

    That doesn't come off as douchey to you? Yet you're catching feelings over "ass-umption". XD

    Lol, no idea why you're talking my response so personally. And Georgie isn't really well known at all. Not really any more so than the ones that died from "minor" incidents.

  • I was legitimately wondering if you had read much of the comics. It's your own fault if you interpreted some hidden meaning/insult behind that. Not sure why you wouldn't just take my comment at face value, which is why it seems like you were taking the question a little personally.

    Maybe not to you, but overall I would say he is the more famous fable. Its probably close though. Its not like the difference is big enough where one would be significantly or noticeably harder to kill than the other.

    Bluebeard's story is kind of dark and gruesome, so a lot of people don't hear about it until they are older. The Georgie Porgie nursery rhyme is heard at a very young age, and most people frankly forget about it. I don't think I had thought about that nursery rhyme since I was like 10-12 years old. I think it's popularity is probably rapidly declining as well. It wouldn't surprise me if it was relatively unknown in a generation or two, where as Bluebeard will live on in classic European literature.

    Umm.. okay? I'm sorry that I wasn't colorful enough for you? Being "impaled with a sword" and dying is the same thing as dying from a single stab wound.

    No, if you were legitimately wondering then you would have just asked. Not said, "I'm assuming you haven't read much of the comics then", like some pompous arse. At face value it's a condescending comment. lol

  • 1) Dunno why you feel the need to oversell Bluebeard. The fact is that that story has barely left Russia. I haven't met a single person who is into Fables or TWAU, that knew of BB prior to getting into it.

    2) Being impaled and stabbed isn't the same thing. There are people in real life have survived getting stabbed over a dozen times. It has nothing to do with being colorful. You are talking apples and oranges.

  • Not me, i was having a Marv (sin city) through this whole game. Finding Faith's killer was all that mattered. Letting him die in pain was the icing on the cake, and i could pretend to do the right thing, by telling him i wasn't a murderer. GOLD

  • I thought Bluebeard was French?

  • Okay, you're just being ridiculous.

    There is nothing wrong in me assuming you haven't read much of the comics. Get over yourself.

    1) Bluebeard originated in France, and is part of classic European literature. It is not from Russia at all. Tons of people who study European literature in school/college hear of this story. Like I said, typically you hear of this story when you're older.

    That isn't to say that its really popular or anything, but neither is the Georgie Porgie rhyme.

    2) Okay, I suppose a stab doesn't go all the way through the body. Whoa, massive difference (except not really). Either way, we're talking about a sharp metal object going through internal vital organs. I don't care if the stab didn't go through Georgie's entire body. You're being way too technical and it's causing you to entirely miss the point.

  • Do me a favor and dont feel sry for him. Neither for Vivian. There little romeo & julia think in the end was might a little tragic yes, but dont forget what they dont. They just feel bad how theire situation ended...both would be still assholes when bigby wouldnt stoph them...sry for grammar

    Get over myself? Why don't you take your own advice. lol

    I am going to assume that you don't know how to speak to people and are a basement dwelling introvert. Not in a rude way though, I am just making an assumption. ;)

  • 1) Neither one is extremely popular, but Georgie is more well known. People who I have pulled into this game always comment along the lines of, "Oh that's pretty clever that his strip club is Pudding & Pie, just like that rhyme". Yet I have the same people asking me "Who the f*ck is this Bluebeard guy?"

    2) So I guess to you a paper cut is the same thing as your finger getting cut off? Give me a break. lol, hilarious

  • While i was playing the game, it occurred to me, are your thoughts those of BigBy thoughts or does he have his own mind and form his own opinions. At that point I was just thinking, what would BigBy do.

    Snow did spoke of how BigBy enjoys killing, but this would collide with my thought process since I don't take the pleasure in that activity.
    "or do I !?!" But I was just wondering about that.

    I was shocked to see that most people didn't kill Georgie. What is wrong with people?

  • To think about it, although he is a killer and nothing would ever change that fact, the death he did gave to those girls, I would think it'll be a painless way to go. When whats her name, screw it. Pull of her ribbon, a quick and painless death and not a word or breath.

    I didnt kill him cuz I wanted him to suffer. Painfully. I may have felt bad for him for like a split second, but then I remembered that he took advantage of those girls and then killed them. So yeah.

  • I knew about Bluebeard. Ive read his story a few times. Granted, not many people are into fairytales but I would think that since he has a complete story about him and not just a few lines of a rhyme, that he would be more powerful going by the rules of the Fable Universe.

    Listen man, if I wanted to seriously insult you, why would I be here telling you that that was not my intention? That would be entirely counter productive and pointless to supposedly wanting to insult you in the first place. I had no other intention other than to seriously question whether or not you had read far into the comics. That is a completely valid thing to wonder.

    Let's try a comparison. Lets pretend you said something along the lines of: "I don't think Bigby and Snow will ever get together". I then come in and say; "I'm going to assume you haven't read much of the comics then". Is that not a completely valid thing to wonder?? Given the fact that you seemingly could not think of any examples from the comics to relate to Georgie's death, I seriously wondered if you had not read much of the comics, hence why you weren't able to make a connection. All you had to do was back up your stance, and everything would have been answered. There was no reason for you to think I was being condescending or insulting.

    I am going to assume that you don't know how to speak to people and are a basement dwelling introvert. Not in a rude way though, I am just making an assumption. ;)

    Literally no comparison to what I said. This is obviously a veiled insult, and its not based on anything. Seriously, if you think that compares to me wondering how much of a story you have read or not, there is seriously something wrong with your reasoning skills.

    This debate is totally pointless. I can't really argue against the fact that you supposedly know a decent amount of people who know about the nursery rhyme, and you can't really argue against the fact that I know a decent amount of people who know the story of Bluebeard.

    It really doesn't matter. Neither one of these characters are very popular. One shouldn't be noticeably more difficult to kill than the other. I mean really, if we're getting into such little specifics such as this, we should see a very wide range of how hard Fables are to kill, and we really don't.

    2) So I guess to you a paper cut is the same thing as your finger getting cut off? Give me a break. lol, hilarious

    Yes, because the difference between getting stabbed and getting impaled is TOTALLY equatable to the difference between a paper cut and getting your finger cut off (not). Seriously, the only one making that kind of comparison is you. I was comparing a lethal wound to a lethal wound.. and you're comparing getting your finger cut off to getting a papercut?? Talk about an apples-oranges comparison. There is no logic behind your post what so ever.

    And again, you're missing the point because of your apparent need to split hairs. Forget about debating the technicalities between getting stabbed and getting impaled. We're talking about serious lethal injuries. Seriously, Georgie's guts were hanging out of his stomach.
