You know what really set me off on Sunday night? I really lost my cool when AMC spoiled that Angela Baker was in fact a boy and the camp killer. Of course I’m in Central time zone so it hadn’t aired here yet. Never watching that channel again after that botch.

No but seriously, I have recently come to terms with SOSM. Like you said, I shouldn’t have to, but I better do it since that’s where we are at now in this internet age.

From a marketing aspect, ouch…AMC with the party foul (and I don’t mean Adam Rose’s finisher).

Haven’t yet seen Babadook, but will likely be checking it out this week – and reviewing it here on Halloween Love. Looking forward to it, as I’ve heard nothing but good things.

In reply to John Squires. I appreciate what you do. You have found a lot of cool things I would never have seen otherwise, such as my Sam bobble head from Killer Design! Thank you It's tough right now because I am dying to see The Babadook but my family wants to wait until friday. It seems every site is talking about Babadook right now.

In reply to TrickR TreatR. I make it a point to never outright spoil anything on social media, though I'm sure I'm guilty of saying too much, from time to time. Within posts, such as Walking Dead recaps, there are of course spoilers. But when it comes to tweets, I try to express some quick opinions without really giving anything away. Again, I think it's a dick move to spoil shows on social media, and I sincerely hope I've never been the one to spoil anything for you. I do my best!

ironically John, you are the main feed on my social media that I have to avoid when a show I watch has aired but I have not yet been able to view it. For me, it is not simply a few hour delay or just catching it tomorrow. My wife enjoys many of the same shows as I do and we will hold them in the DVR for days until we are both able to sit down and enjoy them together. Somwtimes less favored shows even get backed up a week or two!
The challenge here is that avoiding your social media comments would also deny me seeing the reason I follow you in the first place; the cool articles you write for various other sites and other links you share that I often enjoy. Too bad because attracting readers to these sites and possibly selling some the items you bring to peoples attention is how you make your living I understand. I plan to hang in there as I am pretty good at reading the first word or two and knowing it may be spoilery.

My wife saw the meme before I did and tried to tell me about it. First time in 16 years of marriage I ever yelled at her to SHUT UP!!!!

Agreed. I avoid social media if I am unable to watch live. The world is not going to just stop for little old me.

Yeah, I was spoiled on it too, only cause I couldn’t stay off FB. No big deal though, in the grand scheme of things.
