Man exacts revenge on the guy who spoiled Infinity War for him through year-long fake friendship

This is absolutely brutal.

Avengers: Endgame is out just long enough for most of the movie-going world to have seen it. In these crazy times, it's best to engage with a huge pop culture event in real time if you can, lest you spend days on end avoiding your phone and society at large to avoid spoilers. Game of Thrones and Endgame arriving in quick succession has sent us all into a state of paranoid panic, afraid to look even good friends in the eye for fear that they'll tell us about REDACTED. We've even had violent scenes, like the unfortunate gentleman in Hong Kong who got beaten up outside of a cinema for shouting out spoilers to a crowd waiting to go in. If you still haven't caught Endgame, back away now, as the below tale is PACKED with spoilers. Gather around for a fresh tale of Avengers fallout woe, this time via Reddit. It goes a bit like this; an unnamed man fell afoul of Avengers: Infinity War spoilers last year when a vindictive individual hit up his Instagram account, at random, in order to be a complete prick. Cue the two somehow becoming friends when the injured party laughed it off, leading to a year of legitimate good times between the two. But it was all a ruse, you see, and the mother of all revenge plots paid off when Endgame arrived. Check out the post below for the full account, which pays off in incredibly vicious fashion. Can't say we approve of all of this behaviour, but you have to respect the effort...

"So about a year ago, I made a post on Instagram about how excited I was to see Infinity War, and I foolishly used the hashtag “Thanosdemandsyoursilence” As you may know, you can look up hashtags on Instagram and browse through posts using that hashtag. "After I made the post, a random guy (who I assume was browsing the hashtag to find people who used it) randomly targeted me, and commented on my post a full list of everyone who died. I hadn’t seen the movie by then, and I did get it spoiled. "Now by that time, Endgame was confirmed, (just not the name) and it was then that my master plan was born. I messaged the guy and told him that I had already seen the movie, but that was a good prank. It was then that we became “friends,” So for about 7 months, me and him messaged eachother, texted memes, talked about movies, and stuff like that. (Keep in mind the friendship was fake, I was just trying to get his trust and make him comfortable with me.) "Skip forward to about last week. I bought my Endgame tickets and I was going opening night. I asked him if he was going opening night and he said no, which was great news. He said he was going next week (this week.) So I saw Endgame, and while I was in the theater, I took PLENTY of pictures. I took pictures of Thanos death #1, Captain Marvel, Ronin, Black Widow’s death, Smart Hulk, Fat Thor, 2 Captain America’s, 2 Nebulas, Stan Lee’s cameo, all the snapped coming back, Iron Man’s death, and several other plot points. "When I got out, I almost thought of not doing it. I don’t like to spoil movies, I think it’s lame, but I reassured myself that this guy deserves it. So I texted him that I saw it, he asked how it was and I told him it was great, he told me not to spoil it, and I said “Oh, like how you spoiled Infinity War.” “Then he switched moods, he was all like “Hey man, that was a long time ago, we’re friends now,” Stuff like that. "Then, in one glorious action, I sent all the pictures as fast as I could, messaging plot points along with the pictures. It was all over in like 30 seconds, but he definitely saw it all. He cursed me out, saying I was a horrible person and stuff. Then he said “Why would you do that, we’re such good friends?” "And I texted back, “we’re not friends, a year ago you picked me out of a crowd of thousands and ruined a movie that I had been wanting to see for months, since then I’ve been lying to you, deceiving you and gaining your trust all for this moment. You are not my friend, just a person who got what they deserve.” Then, he cursed me out some more, and I haven’t talked to him since."
