there was no reasonable expectation of a person highlighting that post that they were about to receive a star wars spoiler. Really shitty thing to do imo.

In post 166, Thestatusquo wrote:Ok but Chevre is not vonflare, the tone of the thread had been joking about old spoilers that don't matter anymore and fake spoilers. To say that there was an expectation that you would have something like that spoilered in that situation is not reasonable.


It was leaked months ago.

Shea people who legit spoil things aren't trying to be reasonable. They're trying to be more clever than you are.

I personally was pretty pleased with the star wars spoiler.

It confirmed that I didn't care about star wars. At least not ones that pander to the fans of the originals. Episode 2 was the best one. Actually had the most interesting plotline.

At least my least favourite character dies. That was another plus.

I love this

oh lol

i thought another thing we were doing was making vague spoilers that wouldn't mean anything to ppl who didn't read the work in question/ doesn't know what i'm talking about.

sry. :oops:

Wait, would that spoiler mean anything to someone who hasn't read it? A large part of me feels like they wouldn't.

I assume that's a poirot reference? Am I wrong? I think you'll find that this site has a lot of crossover with the kind of people who like Agatha Christie.

That's a spoiler for Murder on the Orient express, is a twist that basically everyone with half decent knowledge of Christie's work probably knows, and it's vague enough that most people wouldn't realise it was referring to it.
Basically... it's not a huge deal.
