Your House of Cards spoilers rage is totally justified

Respect the boundaries people.

THERE IS A fine line between the time when a spoiler is a spoiler, and when it becomes a legitimate topic for public discussion.

Exhibit D: Have we learned nothing?

Nobody wants a replay of the great Breaking Bad Spoiler War of 2013. Nobody. Friendships were broken, families torn apart, lives ruined.
