I think he’s thinking of the fact you can have several window air conditioners, they can be installed individually at any time, and any handy individual could install their own. Not necessarily the best analogy, but there you have it.

I have always had philosophy about things I want to see, I don’t read about them. If it’s a movie I really want to see or a TV show I watch, I just don’t read the article. The idea that it’s hard to avoid spoilers isn’t true unless you have some douche who will lend you a copy of the Usual Suspects while saying, #spoiler ‘Kevin Spacey is Keyser Soze’. Day to day it really isn’t that hard. If you want to enjoy a film or TV show in it’s true form, you just have to avoid the temptation to sneak a peak

I think that’s probably the most important component of “The Spoiler Alert” though. You HAVE to know your audience. Making a Vader is Luke’s Father or Dumbledore dies comment in a forum of sci-fi and fantasy fans is probably going to be fine. However this idea that this is all fair game in all media can be frustrating.

It kinda makes me a little sad that future generations of movie watchers will NEVER be able to watch Soylent Green without ALREADY knowing what it’s made out of…

I've never read Harry Potter, and I've only seen the first movie once. Therefore, you can tell me whatever you want to, since I have no intention of reading/watching ever. Which is an excellent case of spoilers being in the eye of the beholder. Nothing wrong with a #spoiler hashtag though. .-= Elwood Blues´s last blog ..Changes in Latitude, Changes in Attitude =-.

*whew* Since it’s Dexter, it didn’t even occur to me that you might be making it up.

It was a joke. You just don’t know my humor. That was, like, a really extreme and totally fake example.

How ironic that a comment on a post about spoilers just spoiled the latest season of Dexter for me--I'm only on ep. 4. ::headdesk:: Alas. .-= Lindsay Dunaev´s last blog ..LJo83: RT @sesamestreet: Cookie Monster: Sometimes Moon look like giant cookie. Must look into joining space program. =-.
