On one hand - I get this. I am the type of person who gets annoyed whenever god-forbid I’m watching an episode of a show or a movie that I’ve never seen before with friends (I tend to avoid watching shit with them for the first time unless we’re going to like, a movie theater, because my friends love doing this) & one of them pulls up their phone and looks up the entire synopsis and plot of the film 15 minutes into it.
On the other hand - even when I’ve been spoiled on something personally, I’ve never been the type to go “oh well guess I’ll NEVER finish it now since I know”. There’s a whole 100 chapters between where that dude stopped and the ending of Moby Dick lol - he arguably could’ve forgotten the finer details of what was spoiled for him by the time he got to it.
