re: Crackpot ASOIAF Theories SPOILERS

It is forced. I agree the evidence only supports it for someone who has already drawn the conclusion. I admit it is a possibility (for the irony, if nothing else - Tyrion, while flawed, is the most "Tywin" like, from a cleverness, rational and competent standpoint, although Jaime has grown as much as anyone during the story), but dismiss it as pure crackpot. Everyone wants to see Tyrion riding a dragon. Targ blood may be a requirement or at least the most likely qualification for that.

Heck, if we didn’ have Catelyn’s POV, and someone were to propose a theory that Littlefinger was Robb’s real father, you’d find more evidence for that than you’d find for Aerys being Tyrion’s father."

This is excellent analysis.

This isn't remotely the same as the almost certain R+L=J - which is still possibly not the case, but it will because the reader was consistently and deliberately misled or GRRM changed it to make the theorists wrong.

It is one of the bigger stretches of the theorists.
