Is there some place where I can look at a full list of class archetypes?

I mean stuff like flexible spellcasting or even the undead archetypes. The different kind of archetypes that you can take at level 1 that force you into taking the level 2 feat and typically alter some fundamental aspect of your class.

I've been trying and failing to find some place where they're listed separate from other archetypes (mainly on AON, but googling and reddit threads haven't been any help either).

Do you feel like an asshole sometimes?

For context, I'm from Argentina. There are a lot of cafés here, but most are godawful. People are used to drinking absolutely godawful espresso drinks here.

We have been slowly phasing out torrefacto coffee, coffee with burnt sugar as part of the roasting process, which often hides poor quality coffee behind a layer of profound bitterness. Older customers especially expect their milk boiling hot, I guess because they learned to associate milk at a reasonable temperature with horrible tasting espresso drinks.

There has been some influence from specialty coffee places that have changed the palate and preferences of younger people in urban areas, but many places still either don't train their baristas or purposefully train them wrong to appeal to this older customer base. You are more likely to find a good cup of coffee than before though.

I'm very reticent to try new places and older relatives often find my facial expressions at the practices of the places they think "serve good coffee" offensive.

Does something similar happen to you? Am I just an asshole?

Edit: I don't say anything to the people working there as it's often the owner's fault if the coffee is bad, and I only offer my opinion when they ask me as I'm still a coffee nerd even if I haven't worked as a barista in a hot minute.

(Spoilers Extended) Was Tyrion bullshitting or did George make a mistake?

I'm rereading AGOT and I got to Tyrion's last chapter on the Wall. When he's talking privately with Jeor Mormont he is asked how many winters he lived through and he replies "eight or nine".

We get a tidbit saying that he was born at the end of a three year winter, and his first memories were in spring. Let's be generous and assume he lived through 8 winters counting the one he was born into. He was 24 or 25 at the beginning of the series series.

Robert's rebellion happened 15 years ago at that point and it got started on the year of the false spring, so at the end of a winter. That means that Tyrion was 10 years old the last time he saw winter.

Jeor doesn't question the notion that Tyrion saw 7 winters in the span of 10 years. Nor does the internal monologue suggest Tyrion was bullshitting.

How long did the seasons last in that period of time? How long did the winter before Rhaegar abducted Lyanna last? Does that make this claim even less believable?
