Spoiler-jutsu kicks my ass

[rachelmanija]

I went to the manga shop to pick up the latest volumes of Naruto. As I grabbed the latest one, one of the two ten or eleven-year-old boys standing there examining them said, "Oh, that's the one where [GINORMOUS AND TOTALLY UNEXPECTED SPOILER HAPPENS!]"

"...what?" I said. "WHAT?! HEY! I DIDN'T KNOW THAT!!!"

I had the volume in my hand, and I bopped him atop the head with it. (Not hard!)

"Dude!" said his friend. "Don't blurt out spoilers like that."

"Uh, sorry," said Spoiler Boy.

"You SHOULD be sorry!" I retorted ungracefully.

The shop employees attempted to console me ("you should have hit him harder!"), but the damage was done. It was just like Kakashi getting spoiler-attacked, only worse.

And then I went home and tried to console myself by printing the yaoi-illusion since stupid Viz censored it by transforming it into a silhouette, only the site linked on reread_no_jutsu is virus-infected and completely crashed my computer, forcing me to type from a net cafe until tomorrow, when hopefully the computer repair place can fix it. (Details at oyceter.)

...please do not put spoilers in comments, or I will hit you with a shrink-wrapped volume of Naruto.

OH MAN, that's like the time when Second Sense had been out for a week and I was not even talking to my boss, who was standing near my workspace talking with a bunch of other people who had seen the movie, and they were all being v serious and hush-hush about it and my boss blurts out, "Oh, I knew all the time he was dead!"

And I literally did this: FACEPALM

Only it sounds even worse because I wasn't a big fan of Second Sense!
