Well, speaking for myself, I thought you’re post would be a continuation of the OP, a “spoiler” already under discussion and only a rumor to boot. A new spoiler regarding the next episode took me by surprise. I wish I hadn’t read it either. ---

**Omniscient** , I’m sorry if I revealed something here that would ruin the next episode for you. If you think others might also be upset, please report my post to a mod for deletion. Sorry again. ---

I only squinted at this thread. Is this the unofficial discussion thread for tonight’s ep. or hasn’t that one started yet? ---

If you think others might also be upset, please report my post to a mod for deletion. Sorry again. I didn’t see much spoilage in your post. Most of it was covered in the preview at the end of the last episode. ---

> [@Honey](#): > > **Omniscient** , I’m sorry if I revealed something here that would ruin the next episode for you. If you think others might also be upset, please report my post to a mod for deletion. Sorry again. I was refering to the OP, not to you. I suppose I have no one to blame but myself, I knew I was gambling by opening the thread, but based on the forum [rules](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=343601), this sorta goes against the proper spoiler usage as **Dex** detailed. Ideally the OP would have said something about “in the next Lost” in the thread title. As it is I had no idea if he was spoiling past episodes I’d already seen or upcoming ones, also I had no idea of the magnitude of the spoiler. The more you can prepare people before tossing out a spiler the better. ---

Actually, I think DEX is the one who changed the title of the thread. It originally had the spoiler in the title for all to see. ---

Well, if they decide to kill her off I certainly won’t shed any tears. I can’t stand the character and I’m no overly fond of the actress either. I’ll join my voice to the POLAR BEAR! faction in the hopes of seeing her devoured…slowly and with relish (yeah, I know most polar bears are saddly lacking in relish, but what the hell…). -XT ---

Even if the bear’s lacking relish, Hurley should at least be able to hook him up with some ranch dressing. ---

It turns out that [polar bears are actually pretty wimpy](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=359964). Unconvincing CGI polar bears are probably _complete_ pushovers. (Except when they’re all Coked up and out of control, in which case all bets are off.) ---

Maybe I’m a little slow, but it only occurred to me now that those smartasses may have cast Tom Cruise’s less-obnoxious cousin on the strength of the last five letters of his surname. 😉 ---
