Spoiler Tags

[Ensign9]

These should be reserved to talk about leaks and rumors and not TV episodes, movies, etc. that have already been publicly released. Enter any threads I start at your own risk if you haven't seen something yet.

B, start a poll. Vox populi, vox dei.

"Threads I create." Get a load of this jabroni.

Yes, because I just created a Knock at the Cabin thread and I ain't usin' tags. Fair warning.

[epilogue]

Tags aren't required for things that are already out.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Especially if you’re not an asshole. Cause if you are it’s probably too much to ask

[Ello Sailor]

Only main character d bags don't use spoiler tags for shit that just dropped. Shamalama's latest has been out for a while, so... meh.

It’s wholly selfish not to include spoiler tags for things that have been out for only a brief period. My hat’s off to people who see things the day of release, and I’m glad Jorge’s friends worked craft services for Neruda or whatever but not everyone has the same capacity to consume media and I don’t think a little bit of courtesy is too much to ask.

I fully agree and I already explained that the Tar joke I posted isn't a spoiler

You've gotta let this one go, bro. If you're on Twitter you're going to see some bullshit.

Assuming the plot points in the tweet are authentic, it most certainly was. The movie has been marketed as about her downfall, for being “cancelled.” I’d had no idea what the impetus was until you posted that, and now when I watch the movie I’ll be watching her interactions with other characters with a solid hunch of how they’re going to pan out.

To explain why that wasn't a spoiler I would have to actually spoil the movie for you. Just watch the movie

[Jorge]

Still my stance:

It takes zero effort to post or open a spoiler code. Who the fuck cares. I understand not using them if you don't feel they're warranted but campaigning against them in this case?

yeah it's all dumb, but i was trying to be nice.

I'm more on your side here. The negative effects of using precautionary spoiler codes are literally NOTHING, while the potential upside is that maybe we save the poor hapless bozo who absentmindedly clicks open a thread of a show they're not 100% caught up on. It's a stupid thing to get mad about.

Literally all I knew about the movie going in is that she plays a conductor. But i'm also generally out of the loop on new stuff, and don't use Twitter and the like.

I don’t even have a Twitter account

So are you going to get one now?

[Ello Sailor]

Oh, the tweet was posted here? God damn, the plot thickens.

Based. Twitter is for chodes.

I suspect I will be puzzled by this line for weeks to come
