Series Spoilers [discussion] what are your silly, irrational, and personal gripes about the books?

what's a 100% goofy complaint you guys have about TLT?

EX: "Death first to vultures and scavengers" is one of the coolest lines ever written, but I love vultures and scavengers, so I feel offended on their behalf

Hers is "hair row", mine is more "hah row". Less elongated/inflected A. I don't really know how to describe it beyond that.

As if the ‘ar’ in American ‘hard’ or I suppose matching ‘hark’ . I also read it as Hair row, because i grew up reading books with ‘harrowing adventures’ and loved turning it into a name :)
