It happens twice!
Different characters too!

I hope when the series gets there they both exclaim it at some point

My point exactly. I read through Dance less than a month ago, and it does sound sort of familiar, but not even that much. And definitely not twice.

You need to pay more attention then, you're missing out on the best writing.

If you're looking for ideas, Dolorous Edd/Grenn/Jon's reaction to Sam's "three horns" comment would be great as well as Jaqen's eye point with the Arya part removed.

I remember that one!
Also, I have avatar ADD. Nobody will ever recognize who the hell I am. I will try to stick with this one, as it matches my name. Wish there was more Dayne resources to work with.

Well, those are suppose to be colloquialisms. Although, it is weird to read them when they're found only in one/a few of the books. But that can't be helped.
It is known.

It is not known. This post is as useful as nipples of a breastplate.
Though really, the repeating phrases didn't get out of hand until ADWD, but it's mostly because that book was rushed and poorly edited. AFFC had some issues with it, but nothing that took me out of the reading process and make me shake my head at GRRM like ADWD did.
Rushed? I haven't read it yet but how could that be possible? It took 12 years to make!

Rushed editing. Although most of it was already edited before he finished the last chapters, so even thought it was a very quick turnaround, I'm not sure that was the case. Probably more friends with the editor than anything.
Nowhere near as bad as Rothfuss. God damn does that man need to hire his worst enemy as his editor.

The editing process was was done incredibly quickly to get the book out as fast as possible. And he seemingly finished a large portion of it late and it wasn't properly refined. Even beyond the actual prose, the book has no structure and feels like they just cobbled together a bunch of disparate chapters and said here is what we have, let's publish this.
I agree that the problem starts with GRRM here, but it was clearly rushed as well. Ran at Westeros' comments about the editing process from last year make that pretty clear.

I'm not a fan of "where whores go"
Are you serious? [ASoS]
I shed a tear when those were her last words.
Same. I also love where whores go. I love the books wholesale. No complaints.

ADWD SPOILERS
The best repeated phrase involving Jon is "Kill the boy."

A lot of his repeated bull shit didn't start happening until ADWD.
Why are you spoiler tagging that?
You know nothing, endre.
EDIT: Nice gifs.
Another one with "Anyone can be banned." would be nice.

Need an intercut gif of that Arya scene + the Charles Dance gif from Ali G Indahouse with subtitles for Arya saying "Dance for me bitch"

So is that shadow-thingy a spell or a creature that persists? Spoiler tag the answer if necessary.

Spell with semen reagents and a long cool down.
Can Jon Snow brood any harder!?! *faints*

(series spoiler)
doesnt it also make Stannis look years older as a result? I wish they had made him seem a little weaker or something at least, i've read a lot of complaints about how the shadow baby seemed OP and that it didnt seem to have any limitations. Also the whole thing about Melisandre not wanting to continue doing it because it was draining his life fires

Also, Ros has been in more episodes than Robb Stark this season. Think about that.

Who's more important, King in the North or Queen of the Whores? I think I just answered my own question.
EDIT: I have no idea what the spoiler below me says since I haven't started AFFC yet and I'm scared to see it.
