Speak Hodor’s name into Google app, and the results are the same. Different searches will give you a different number of Hodors each time (I can tell you from firsthand experience that this an endlessly amusing way to pass at least 10 minutes on a Friday night), but let’s be honest, there’s no such thing as too much Hodor.

Hodor? Hodor.
