The longest you've managed to avoid getting something spoiled...

I don't understand the anti-spoiler fervor. Spoilers only negatively impact bad media. Seeing how a twist you see coming unfolds is just as enjoyable if not moreso.

Maybe for you. For me, having something like that spoiled often ruins it.

Yes, same here. That's why they're called 'spoilers'. I hate it. The more I'm enjoying the media, the more it pisses me off. I've had 2 things spoiled for me, that really ruined my fucking day. One was unintentional:

Spoiler: Fallout 4

A youtube comment, you would think I'd know better but the discussion was interesting. Anyway, someone inadvertently revealed where your son is (should I say WHO he is), and that just destroyed me.

I was actually having a pretty good time with Fallout 4. I rarely comment on youtube but I told the guy what he did, and he apologized rather than be a smart ass, which I guess helped. But the damage was done.

Another was just very stupidly placed, I think it was a post somewhere I browse memes and such, and this one I just scrolled by accident

Spoiler: Game of Thrones

A joke for Winterfell (Bran falling out of tower) and King's Landing (Tommen Lannister jumping out of window).

That was like literally the last scene of the damn season, and yea I was not happy at all. I had managed to avoid every single spoiler for it up until that point, just to have that shown to me while scrolling Facebook of all things.

I don't even really understand the mentality of someone who would intentionally our even carelessly unintentionally spoil something for someone, mostly because of...

I've been reading A Song of Ice and Fire since the second book came out. I watched most of Season 1 of GoT, then stopped. I got bored, I knew what was going to happen every episode and just lost interest. (plus haven't forgiven HBO for canceling Carnivale.) GoT without its big shocking reveals isn't really all that good. But I WAS getting major satisfaction NOT spoiling GoT for 1 of my friends and 3 of my co-workers who hadn't read the books, and watching them melt down on certain days.
