Okay, responding to Ms Barnes’ write in about people spoiling things. There is one that I’m proud of. Not because I ruined someone’s experience but because it was revenge.
Years and years ago, my brother ruined Tywin Lannister’s death because he was as GOT book reader and I was not. When he did it, I didn’t react, I just took note. And I waited. And waited. Then, a few years later, Spider-Man: No Way Home released. And because I’m a real one like y’all, I saw it on Thursday night.
So, Friday, I asked him: Did you see Spider-Man yet? He of course said “no”. So I proceed to tell him that Green Goblin kills Aunt May. And he goes “What??? Spoilers!!!” And I just reminded him that years ago he spoiled GOT for me and now we’re even and to have a blessed day.
I know this comment was in response to a small part in a much longer episode, but I had to spread the gospel of revenge lol. Hope y’all have a great week and I’ve been listening to y’all since 2015ish and I don’t plan on stopping.
