"Just seen Star Wars?"
"How was it mate?"

"Ah, man."
Re: Spoilers!
You don't like surprises? I find it hard to enjoy anything that has a decent twist if I know what it is already, because I spend the whole time thinking "oh, maybe it comes after this scene."BostonBeaneater wrote: ↑16 Jul 2017, 11:50pmWhat kind of grown-up non-douche gives a shit about spoilers on TV shows and movies?

Re: Spoilers!
There was some study several years ago that concluded that spoilers generally don't hinder enjoyment of a movie or book. It creates a different audience experience, but not a necessarily disappointing one. Courtesy says don't spoil something without another person's permission—why dictate that they can't be surprised—but it's not an obvious evil.

Re: Spoilers!
I'm not usually too bothered by it unless it's related to a property that I have a deep investment in, but I usually say that after a year you don't have to give a spoiler warning anymore.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑17 Jul 2017, 3:59pmThere was some study several years ago that concluded that spoilers generally don't hinder enjoyment of a movie or book.

George Will's insights on the use of the Madagascar hissing cockroach with soy cheese as it relates to Tony LaRussa's bunting strategy in the 1988 ALCS runs a bit long at four minutes, but, you know.

They could have edited it down a bit, but that would have necessitated expanding the section on gullmeat as used in calzones.
