I've listened to the Wicked OBC and never picked up on that. Nor did I know the plot of A:OC. I'm neither a child nor an uninterested party.
Some people also pointedly avoid finding out things about shows they are aiming to see (though I knew the story of course, I avoided music/video/photos of the Lord of the Rings musical like the plague before I went and loved it all the more for doing so)

Hey logan, way to insert that "warning" AFTER Weez complained.
Not only are you a dickwad, you're kind of an idiot. You realize we can see when you updated your post, right?

I think he had a spoiler warning before I complained, but the eye moves faster than the hand and the brain had read on before it occurred to the brain to not read that bit. I think this board really needs a good way to screen spoilers, like on the IMDb or something. Just writing

SPOILER!

Aeris dies FOR REALS!

END SPOILER!

isn't enough to hide the secret info from the average person. Perhaps if we all read things one word at a time and had to really work our way through each sentence, that'd be an effective method. But I'm pretty sure the eye looks at a block of language as a whole and only goes back to break down something unfamiliar or difficult. I know mine does, anyway.

As for PiraguaGuy's pic, I recognise all those pop-culture references. Does that make me supercool, or supernerdy? o_O

Wrong again Piragua.

The spoiler warning was always there. 3 minutes after posting I added that it was an A:OC spoiler. After he complained I italicized it to further differentiate it as a spoiler.

EDIT: Corroborated by Weez himself before I even could.

But then again, if Logan doesn't want to remove that rod from his tushy, then I suppose adding one in after the fact and then continuing to be a dick will be fine.

*Her*self. I realise the avatar is confusing, but if I keep reiterating my gender, perhaps eventually everyone will get it. :)

Ooh, I like PG's spoiler warning: the eye sees the block of language, and the message is effectively taken in and processed before the eye can read the bit the brain doesn't want to know. :3

Damn, I was going to use "they" as I normally do but it slipped my mind.
