          I took it to mean that too and thought it was saying that there was some update that was taking forever. We already got 4 though, so it wouldn’t make any sense being posted lately.

        It’s a play. And the famous spoiler is that ::: spoiler Spoiler Godot never shows up :::.

              no. Beckett specifically said “If I meant God I would have written God.”

              He also wrote in French, where God is “Dieu” and Godot is “Gohdough” so the pun doesn’t work

            I’m on jerboa, and the spoiler part works okay for me. But it somehow swallowed the first part of the post.

            I haven’t looked on the web client.

            No, I never heard of it, sorry lol. I’m not really into plays though and I’m Canadian so it might not be part of our curriculum.
