The Walking Dead on AMC. >> SPOILER ALERT <<

Similar to someone looking on FB before viewing a current episode, why would you click this thread before watching the episode? Doesn't make sense to me.

It is sad that people even get angry at shit like that. The whole world can't talk about something just because you haven't seen a tv show yet? People are so stupid and the sense of entitlement is distressing.

Dave, the amount of folks in my current situation in life that I trust I can count on one hand, and I end up with extra fingers.

I clicked on this thread saw the spoiler alert, then thought "wait a minute, I haven't seen this episode yet," and clicked away.

Back when Myspace waspopular, I logged on one morning to read a spoiler alert about the ending of Harry Potter #6. The book had just come out at midnight that day. I was LIVID. In fact I still get pissed off thinking about to this day. I think it is a trolling thing that is popular though. People go to releases that happen in other countries the day before, flip to the back of books, then post up spoilers for people waiting for them to be released here.

Hopefully those folks' skills stop at internet trolling, and when it comes time for real skills and knowledge are needed to survive, those folks will go the way of survival of the fittest. Then we can all concentrate on the stuff that really matters.

Until then all this is is entertainment and I don't get too upset about it all. It isn't worth it. ;-)

Also, what was the point of Beths "I get it now" comment? That Dawn just forced people to "always come back"?

I was posting from my Nook before and couldn't type well enough to explain. I totally agree with you about people being mad about social media spoilers, but this was a 650 page book that had just been released hours before. Plus, I enjoy books and movies strictly off of recommendation. When someone tells me a movie or book is good, all I want is the title. I don't even read the sleeve of a book until I've read the whole thing. I realize that is just my own quirk though.

Oh yeah, the best line of the night was "Where are your people?"
