I accidentally spoiled the identity of the Half-Blood Prince. It had been a very long time since I'd read the Harry Potter books, and I didn't really remember movies 6, 7, and 8, so I forgot that it was even a mystery lol. But at least I didn't spoil the part where Hagrid kills Malfoy and feeds his bitch-ass to Fluffy. His father heard about that, alright.
I was present for a SKD moment. It was at a dinner table with some friends and a lot of new aquaintances. One of these new people was very obviously a shithead. No one liked this loud-mouthed guy, except he was a "brother" or whatever college Greeks call them.
This other girl was reading the half-blood prince- it had just came out the week before. She brought it to the table for some reason. Probably couldn't wait to continue right after dinner. He sees it, gives a knowing look around the table. I looked right at him and said. "Don't you fucking dare. Ben, stop your asshole friend from ruining toni-"
SKD!!!!
She was talking to someone and didn't quite hear him. But she could see the rest of us looking down at our hands what he shouted slowly dawned her and she fucking yelled so loud, left the restaurant and cried outside until we came out. She couldn't leave entirely because we were on a road trip. I felt so horribly for her. When the trip ended I never saw her again.
Why are there people like this? Why do we let them do this without consequence? Shame clearly isn't enough.
Hagrid kills Malfoy????
Yeah, oops. I thought it was weird that they didn't keep that in the 5th movie, but whatever, Peeves the Poltergeist was left out of the entire fucking franchise.
