Well, another Game of Thrones episode set the internet on fire. “The Lion and the Rose” featured a very different wedding and a very different shocker from last time, but the reactions were no less passionate, as these amazing tweets prove. SPOILERS AHEAD, obviously.

King Joffrey: one glass of one too many. See you later, you sadistic little punkass.

I still mad #GameOfThrones ended 7 minutes early. That could have been 7 more minutes of Joffrey dying like a bitch.

I had a feeling that eventually Joffrey would choke. Just surprised at how #GameOfThrones

Joffrey seems like the kind of guy who would have a look-a-like get killed at his wedding then pop out of the cake holding Robs head. #GOT

Finally, the Game of Thrones to Mad Men handoff returns tonight. The Joffrey to Pete transition is completely seamless.

"Can't believe HBOGO broke the Undertaker's streak. ..something, something King Joffrey." – What I think Twitter is telling me.

"My queen, what shall we do with this copy of 'MILFs With Their Eyes Gouged Out' Magazine we found in Joffrey's undergarment drawer?"

Joffrey should have named his sword Bookslayer, Blade of Ignorance #GameOfThrones #GoT #GAMEOFTHRONESSEASON4

By Dothraki standards, Joffrey's wedding is a rather dull event tho.

If you listen really closely, you can hear Joffrey say, "Hail… HYDRA…"

It's hard to believe that the Dothraki wedding in the pilot was the most boring wedding on #gameofthrones

I hope everyone in the Westeros wedding industry demands to be paid upfront. #GameOfThrones

I'm starting to get the impression that King Joffrey isn't a very nice guy.

You're welcome.

Of course, King Joffrey himself was no slouch in the tweet department:
Spying on Margaery getting dressed for our wedding. If that's bad luck, why does it feel so right?

Thinking of making Ned's head my best man at my wedding tonight.

What does Joffrey say to the God of Death? "Not Tod–…damnit" 😵

When you play the Game of Thrones you either die or fucking die there is no middle ground, you just die.
