This photo of “Lost” stars Evangeline Lilly, Daniel Dae Kim, and Nestor Carbonell (plus bonus canine cuteness) was posted on Lilly’s Twitter feed, which was then shared on the “Lost” message board 4815162342.com. Try to guess what one Lostie did when he saw that picture. (Hint: if you guessed “bitched about spoilers,” you get a gold star.)

crow216: I know i’m being a complete tool here…but this is a spoiler to me. I did NOT want to see Richard the way he looks.
DaBooty1: what do you mean by “the way he looks”? with a beard? are you kidding? we don’t know where or why this picture was taken, it is far from a spoiler.
crow216: Well, if you are posting it now, are we to assume that it’s a new picture? If that’s a new picture and Richard is on set with a beard….Yes, yes it’s a spoiler and a big one.
crow216: the comments start on 3/15. I’m fairly certain it’s a recent photo. If you guys agree it’s not a spoiler then it’s fine but I sincerely hope not…..because that would fn stink that I just saw that.

Or, you know, maybe he didn’t have to shoot any scenes for a week and simply didn’t shave. But no, I’m probably just not obsessing over details enough. “HIS BEARD HOLDS THE SECRETS OF THE ISLAND!!!! Now the show is ruined for me, RUINED I say! How was I to know that a fan message board might share information about a show I want no new information about whatsoever?”

Now, granted, if you read the whole thread, you’ll see that the slightly less bitchy and insane fans talk some sense into “crow216.” But be warned, side effects of reading the whole thread include eye-rolling, headaches, and (eventually) drooling. Consult your doctor before clicking over there.

(Thanks to Clement for braving that message board so I didn’t have to.)
