    During last night's epic Game of Thrones finale, Jon Snow landed quite the promotion. In sharp contrast, someone will probably lose his job over the hilarious continuity error involving Mr. Big Shot's hysterically, uh, mobile sword.

    Eagle-eyed Imgur user voicesinmyhead spied the unconvincingly floppy prop in the Battle of the Bastards, but it's still got the internet cracking up a week later. Just look at it!
