Do you like Joffrey Baratheon, or not? [SPOILER]

[Romanow122]

Good Day,

My question: do you like Joffrey Baratheon, or not?
Please with justification.

I like Joffrey, because I am a big fan of the houses Baratheon and Lannister.
I also like him because he has such a good fashion sense. His clothes always looks great.

I like him but to be honest I prefer Ramsay Bolton. He is such a sweetheart.

Joffrey Baratheon is the son of Hitler, Stalin and Mao all put together...

[Herr Shimmler]

Joffrey Baratheon is the son of Hitler, Stalin and Mao all put together...

I'd add hypocrites such as Churchill, Obama and Sarkozy to that list

Such posts are totally useless. You should also be able to justify your opinion.

[Skizbot]

Dude has style. That red and gold half-cape thing he wears in the show is baller status 4realz.

[Toho]

well lets see

1) spark a nationwide rebellion by unjustly killing a highborn instead of the wall as protocol decrees specially when they plead forgiveness and guilt.
2) stripping their future wife to be naked infront of the court and ordering his guards to hit her with PLATE GAUNTLETS
3) ordering all bastards of his father to be killed (innocents)
4) being an incopetent ruler
5) being an ass and a coward (look at Arya's case & the wedding feast)
6) plotting to assassinate a highborn for no particular reason (Bran)
7) do I need to go on?

No one can deny that Joffrey Baratheon is the worlds biggest douchbag/sadist, also he is born within incest wich is disguiting! Romanow122 please name the things that make Joffrey Baratheon likeable...

1.He is a Lannister.
2.He is King of the Seven Kingdoms
3.Cersei is his mother.
4.He always has nice clothes.
5.He has executed Eddard Stark.

That would be a few reasons.

unless you hate Eddard that is the ONLY reason to justify you liking him, whether he is a Lannister or not is irrelevant. please cite reasons, IE actions and accomplishments that Joffrey has done so far that show us why he is such a likable figure.

please try again.
or else this is a useless thread.

No, no, you understand this completely wrong. Joffrey's how Eddard, Robert Cersei and Co. a fictional character. The factors making Joffrey sympathetic for me,are personal. For you it is, whether he is a Lannister. For me as another person that can be important. And now I'm a troll, just because I like a character from a book? Dany also has her downsides, but hardly anyone has anything against them. I accept e.g. that you like Eddard Stark, it's just a story.

1.He is a Lannister. He is a bastard and therefore a Waters, not a Lannister
2.He is King of the Seven Kingdoms No claim due to being a bastard and half the realm is in revolt against him
3.Cersei is his mother. Cant see how that is a good trait for him? I at least judge people for who they are, not who their mother or father is
4.He always has nice clothes. One usually does when you`re rich
5.He has executed Eddard Stark. And started a war in the process that has left the entire continent without food enough to last through the coming winter

That would be a few reasons.

[Karnil Vark Khaitan]

I think he is trolling.
I mean you are not suppose to like him, and if you really do..... I dont know what to say.
But when you thinking about it, maybe joffrey would have turn out to be a even more twisted Ramsay, becouse he had more power osv.

1.He is a Lannister.

YEAH! 100% blooded

[SammyBoy]

I fully blame Cersei for Joffrey. And maybe also partially Robert.

Joffrey bad sides come from 45% Robert Baratheon ,45%Cersei Lannister and 10% Jaime Lannister.

Joffrey Baratheon is a gentleman and a scholar.

That dear childrens was terrible sarcasm.

[Skizbot]

Joffrey is years ahead of the Westerosi surgical community when it comes to feline vivisection, but of course the obstinate fuddy-duddies at the Citadel refuses to acknowledge his revolutionary studies.

[QUOTE=Toho;11403431]well lets see

1) spark a nationwide rebellion by unjustly killing a highborn instead of the wall as protocol decrees specially when they plead forgiveness and guilt. It was not actualy unjust.
2) stripping their future wife to be naked infront of the court and ordering his guards to hit her with PLATE GAUNTLETS
3) ordering all bastards of his father to be killed (innocents) This was actualy his mother.
4) being an incopetent ruler
5) being an ass and a coward (look at Arya's case & the wedding feast)
6) plotting to assassinate a highborn for no particular reason (Bran)
7) do I need to go on?

[QUOTE=Dido;11403576]
1.He is a Lannister. He is a bastard and therefore a Waters Hill (His parents are both from the Westlands therefore his bastard name is)
2.He is King of the Seven Kingdoms No claim due to being a bastard and half the realm is in revolt against him (Actualy only the Lannisters and Crownlands supported him so I would say around 80% of the realm revolted against him)
3.Cersei is his mother. Cant see how that is a good trait for him? I at least judge people for who they are, not who their mother or father is (I suppose he has a thing for Cersei which means he is letting his feelings for Cersei get in the way of his opinion of Joffrey)
4.He always has nice clothes. One usually does when you`re rich (I am not even sure he picks his clothes, his servants or mother probably decides that)
5.He has executed Eddard Stark. And started a war in the process that has left the entire continent without food enough to last through the coming winter (Actualy this was not due to him but rather due to the entire nations lack of professional armies)

That would be a few reasons.
