LOST Spoilers

No, I’m not going to give any, because for one, I haven’t figured anything out yet. And I like it that way.

Two episodes into the first season, I had it all figured out. Pergatory. Done. Good concept. Will be fun to see how it plays out, who sleeps with who, who kills who, etc. Nothing more to decipher.

The beauty of this show is that I was way off. Or was I? Either way, that’s why this show kicks ass. It is a pleasurable mind fuck. Each episode ending with, “What the fuck??? Huh??? Hell yeah!” It keeps you guessing and takes these twists and turns that make it fun to fruitlessly try and predict what will happen next. A huge part of the enjoyment is being left in the dark.

But, there are these internet retards out there who post all these “spoilers” on the net. And they too have next to no idea what is going on since you can’t predict where this show is heading, but they all have their theories or bits and pieces they have picked out of each episode to share with whoever can’t handle the simple of enjoyment of being confused and need ‘answers’. Similar to Christmas, the individual who peeks on-line for ‘answers’ are the same who tear little holes in their presents pre-25th to see what they’re getting. (Or mine, and tell me what I’m getting -thanks sis).

The whole point in the fun is not knowing. I don’t want to know, and I don’t want to hear your theories unless they are entirely your own and you happen to be one of my friends.

I make this distinction because my friends are balanced enough to not be spending their waking hours scrutinizing every scene like the Zapruter tape.

For example, (and sorry for ’spoiling’ this…but for the point of making one) when Jack or someone, I already forget, was in…it was Hurley…when Hurley was in the market, he walked next to some Ho-Hos that were extra visible or something. Apparently some internet Lost wizard figured out that the letter H and the letter O were placed 8th and 15th in the alphabet.

Ring a bell? Who cares? But the flight that they crashed on was 8:15.

This is not illustrating the point of spoiling anything, but merely illustrates the degree of stench that must fill the room where these LOST detectives are spending their days and nights making these useless connections.

But the damage they do do. The unwrapping of gifts and my gifts mother fuckers, is when you point out shit that I don’t want to hear. And no, I don’t read this shit. I just accidentely hear it from others who go online, which feels like such a betrayal.

*Spoiler*

“I can’t believe that Jack’s dad might be Jacob?”

“What? Where did you get that?”

“You can see him in that scene with Hurley and the house. It’s crazy.”

“What are you talking about?  I didn’t see him.”

“If you freeze frame it you can see that it’s Jack’s dad in the cabin.”

“No shit. Wait, you froze the shot you retard.”

“Well, actually I saw it on-line.”

Betrayal.

So anyways, that friend of mine is now in the penalty box when it comes to this show. What’s the fun in having shit pointed out? Nothing. It can only be fun to predict certain parts and be right.

Anyways, enough on that. I’m late and have to time to read what I wrote here, so enjoy the spelling errors and horrific grammar. I am off to Tahoe til Saturday to finally get some skiing under my belt. Have a good week.
