#1126; In which Stabbing is spoiled

Comic Transcripts

[[Two young people discuss a recent television show. One is clearly upset.]]
Knowledgeable Viewer: Can you BELIEVE what happened on Headstabbers last night??
Knowledgeable Viewer: When Duke Gristleton popped out of that birthday cake with a halberd —
Aggravated Viewer: AAHHH! SPOILERS!! I haven’t seen it yet!

Knowledgeable Viewer: SORRY. But, you know, the BOOKS the show is based on have been out for OVER SIX YEARS.
Aggravated Viewer: I haven’t READ the books! The show is still new to me, if I’m ALLOWED to enjoy it!

Knowledgeable Viewer: The books are a loose dramatization of the Franco-Prussian War, anyway. So there aren’t a lot of surprises.
Aggravated Viewer: I don’t know anything about that war! All I know about PRUSSIA is that it sounds like Russia but looks like Germany!

Knowledgeable Viewer: Well, even the Franco-Prussian War, like any troop conflict of the cavalry era, was a rehash (with variations) of every pre-mechanized conflict going back to the Peloponnesian War of 400 B.C.
Aggravated Viewer: You know that stuff’s all Greek to me!!
Knowledgeable Viewer: Really, ANY clash of forces has its roots in the second law of thermodynamics.

[[The aggravated viewer is now so panicked that he appears to be upside down at a 45 degree angle.]]
Aggravated Viewer: I never had a science class! And I only watched Cosmos with the sound off!
Knowledgeable Viewer: It just means that in a closed system, chaos tends to increase.
Aggravated Viewer: C’MON, dude! SPOILERS!!!
