5. Crass pumpkin carving contests
6. You’re that much closer to the return of “Game of Thrones”
7. For hardcore GoT fans, an The World of Ice and Fire encyclopedia is out in October (although this means the rest of us will have to hear about how it isn’t really an encyclopedia, so it’s really a scratch)

9. Thrift store sweaters
10. Public transit is considerably less smelly
