The Dwarf has played his little trick, he can only play it once.
P.S. How did Stannis know that? Did he read the Script too?

Theater Renames ‘Snow White’ Because the Word ‘Dwarf’ Is Too Offensive
by KATHERINE TIMPF September 8, 2015
The production will be called “Snow White and her Seven Friends” instead. De Monfort Hall in Leicester, England, has announced that there will be no dwarves in its Snow White Christmas pantomime because the word “dwarf” is too offensive. The production will be called “Snow White and her Seven Friends” and feature child actors as the “friends,”
according to an article in the Leicester Mercury. Despite the fact that that Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs has been around for approximately 9 million years, a spokeswoman for the theater insisted to the Mercury that the word “dwarf” is “generally not a word that people feel comfortable with” and that the play had to be changed.
But Warwick Davis, a dwarf actor who has appeared in movies including Harry Potter and Star Wars, told the Mercury that he’s suspicious of that explanation: “The profit margins for pantos are not very big and it’s obviously much cheaper to involve schoolchildren than it is to pay lots of professional short actors,” he said. Davis also said that, as a dwarf, he found the decision to eliminate dwarfs to be far more offensive than the word could ever be.

Frozen precipitate with low albedo and zer seven associates.
Those supporting this are mentally ill or part of the left’s push for mind control
I don’t want to be called by the “H” word. I just decided it’s offensive. Hope all those Black Lives Matter brothers know I mean bidnez.
Yep. This particular circus act, though, is in the U.K.
Yup! What’s the difference? We’re doing that here too. That’s kind of what I was getting at. Sorry.
Snow White is make believe. The dwarves are make believe. They are short, but also have exaggerated features like noses bigger than their hands. And when they sing animals join and dance with them.
If (generic you) don’t know the difference between a fictional character called a dwarf and a person who was born of short stature, then you are an idiot and don’t deserve to be given the time of day.
snow is always white so there is that

LOL!
At the shipyard where I am a gate guard there is a giant dwarf in the pipe shop. He is proportioned like a dwarf with very short arms and legs and his torso is very large. He is about 5’8”. Everybody calls him Doc.
The more tolerant they try to be the more tyrannical they get!
