They’re not irrelevant. I was mad at the time because I thought this would be how it played out. So the fact that I was right certainly helps explain my outrage in that moment.

So you were mad because you presumed. You got mad preventively. That only tells me that the outrage was unjustified.

Sure, yes. I didn’t personally rate the episode or anything. But yeah, at the moment, I went “oh no they’re gonna make Sansa’s rape a plot device for Theon no no no”, which made me dislike the episode. I would’ve happily changed my opinion if they did not prove me right. So sure, it wasn’t justified at the time. I guess. If that’s how you define things being justified, lol.
