Netflix has launched a new website, titled 'Spoil Yourself,' which is dedicated to -- you guessed it -- spoilers.
There are people who are fanatical about avoiding spoilers, lest it ruin the ending to their favorite book/television series/movie; and then there are people who like to read the last page of the book first. Technically, there is no "right way" to enjoy a work of art (even the linear, chronological way in which it was intended to be enjoyed by its creator).
If you're the type who prefers to view a film or show without the tension of not knowing who will live or die, or who will end up with who, then you now have the luxury of moseying on over to the Spoil Yourself site, instead of bugging your friends to spill the beans.
