Oh goodie, it's time for the annual 'let's rant about people who want to avoid spoilers' fest. No, it is good. It's like they're conveniently wearing a sign saying "Hi, I'm an inconsiderate dickhead, please avoid me".
We are thinking alike again. I used the line 'one side says entitlement whores and the other says inconsiderate arseholes and never the twain shall meet.' *g*
I got narked about it as well. I honestly think it's one of those instances that unless you've been a non-North Americans shoes and have been spoiled -- repeatedly -- and then given the platitude of 'oopsie, I thought everyone had seen it' then thou shalt not point fingers and accuse. And, also, thou shalt not proclaim your point as the only sensible one as if it's a pronouncement from the Mount.
Hell, I've seen other North Americans spoiled, who hadn't been able to watch something yet (timezones, lack of time, didn't have channel etc etc), cause someone had to post whatever they wanted right then. But it does tend to come down to an us vs them, and IT DOESN'T HAVE TO! It's not a zero-sum game, no one is saying "don't discuss future spoilers" or "don't post about the current ep", all it takes is some freaking common sense and everyone can be happy.
