Looking at dir(request.GET), I notice that pop is listed as a method. I also believe i've popped off attributes from request in the past.
Is that accurate? If so, why would this fail?
request.GET.pop('key')

request.GET and request.POST are immutable QueryDict instances. This means you cannot change their attributes directly.
Copying a QueryDict, returns a mutable QueryDict. You can then call the pop method of the copy without raising an error.
request.GET
GET = request.GET.copy()
GET.pop('key')
