This Is Not A Democracy

You know what pisses me off more than anything in the world?

People who don't place spoilers behind cuts.

There is no excuse for it. We don't all live in the same time zones or have the same time available to us, to watch something we've probably had to download, if we're outside the country where it's made.

Posting pictures or gifs or capslocky announcements of what has happened, "OMG! THEY KILLED BOB!"-style is just plain selfish and inconsiderate. LJ gives us the capacity to make a post with all the content you could want without ruining it for everyone else. Please use a cut for ALL of the content you have to say about new episodes or series or films.

I lose so much respect for people when they do things like that, even if it's not a series I'm following; please think about how you could be ruining other people's enjoyment when you're posting this stuff. They're supposed to be your friends, after all.

I swear to God - the next person who spoils Atlantis for me is going to be defriended.

I don't give a fuck how much you want to squee, or if you 'try not to give too much away', saying what the episode contains or who plays what role is A FUCKING SPOILER. There is absolutely no excuse for it.

Don't even think I'm kidding. An inability to use an LJ-cut shows nothing but selfish disrespect for the people on your flist, especially if you know (because they've told you before) that they hate spoilers.

Seriously. Have some fucking consideration.
