Spoliers - are you angered when people post spoilers on social media?
-
I just actively avoid social media when there is something I am watching late that I don't want spoiled.
-
Spoilers don’t affect me. But I do respect others to not spoiled it for them.
-
Since the spoilers I care most about are in book series I don't really have this problem.
-
There have always been and will always be spoilers. If it is something you care about, it's really on you to go see the thing or avoid talking to people (including social media.)

As long as they put "spoiler alert" at the beginning it's fine, I can just not read that post. But no reason to get all up in arms about it.
My problem here is that "spoilers" are also "social consciousness references." So if you think about common literary references, they are really all spoilers.

No spoilers bother me.

I had this ruined for me by someone in the mall due to a magazine article. I was pissed.

I enjoy spoilers.
I'm the type to want to know what happens before I watch.
For example, on Netflix for a given show I'm watching, I'll scroll ahead to read the descriptions of the ones I haven't seen yet so I know the basics of what will happen.
I don't know why, but it makes it more interesting to me. Same with movies.

That is definitely a unique perspective. IMO it really diminishes the entertainment value. I honestly dont even like reading the current episode description until after I watch it.

Yeah I do this as well. If I'm really interested in the story I'll go on the internet and look at episode synopsis just to see what happens faster. Most of television is just filler anyway so I'm not really losing out on anything.

This is more about books than movies for me, but one of my greatest regrets with good books is that I can never again read them for the first time. There is something in the flavor of the story that is lost in the knowing. For me. My wife prefers to read the last chapter if things get at all tense.
