Getting spoiled

You can change. You can.
Yeah, seriously, fuck that. Fuck wikipedia and its need to put the whole character arc of a character in the heading paragraph, while we're at it.

    "General"

    Dagnabbit, I thought it was about how we are spoiled by our consumerist lifestyle. You could have put it in Media.

    Thought this would be about getting spoiled by your parents.

    Till shade is gone, till water is gone, into the Shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath, to spit in Sightblinder’s eye on the last Day.
    I predicted the topic correctly.

    I know that feel, bro.

    Feels bad, man.

    I knew what kind of "spoiled" he meant, but I figured it would be about the tendency some people have to blab about new installments of stuff right after it's released.

    For example: The myriad of Homestuck fans on Tumblr who don't even hesitate to blog panels from the most recent update.

    I predicted the wrong topic before I predicted the right topic.

    But you never had any to begin with.
    To be fair, most single Homestuck panels don't spoil anything. Although there are a few exceptions.

    Touche.

    There are a few that are less funny once you've already seen them, though.

    One nice thing to do on Wikipedia is add a very climactic spoiler right in the 1st paragraph of the article.

    Kind of a tricky definition of "nice" there.

    I especially hate it when there's a work which you think is kinda interesting but don't have time to watch/read/whatever it. So then you read more about it and read discussions of it and read spoilers not caring because you're not going to read it anyway.

    Then you make time to read/watch it and spend half your time trying to forget the spoilers.

    The worst part is it ruins the effect of dramatic character thingies because when you read about it you didn't know the character and it was just a case of "some random person in a work dies/turns evil/learns to bake"

    Wikipedia ruined me finding out that the main character of Cave Story is a robot

    At least it turned out that was the very next thing I was to learn in the game, so the damage was limited

    When I read TVTropes, I don't mind spoilers because I'm expecting them. But Wikipedia at the very least shouldn't have the spoilers in the damn first sentence!

    Wait... that's supposed to be a spoiler?

    I have to avoid two 4chan boards because I have to avoid spoilers for Redline and the AT genderbent episode

    Cake is the one with tits and blonde hair, right?
  • nohaynicklibrenohaynicklibre

    Cake is the cat

    ^^^^^^^^ I figured the explosions whenever he died were just that games way of showing the character's death

    Didn't help that he has a drowning countdown

    Yes Vorpy Jake = Cake and Finn = Fiona

    When I first played through it, I thought the character wasn't drawn in 3/4 perspective for some reason, making it look like its "front" ear is a green nose (and its "back" eye a sideburn). As such, it didn't look like anything except a robot, making the reveal specially weird.
