TRITE, THE CAFFEINE FROM MY 17 CUPS OF COFFEE HAS JUST KICKED IN; YOU BETTER START RUNNING.
I don’t get it
Waiting for Godot is a book.
Ohhhhh, I thought it was about Godot, the C# game engine
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.
That’s what it’s named after! “The engine you’ve been waiting for.”
It’s a play. And the famous spoiler is that ::: spoiler Spoiler Godot never shows up :::.
“Where is your Godot now!”
… Sorry, couldn’t help myself. 😅😂
Well, yeah, that is one of the interpretations.
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
He was waiting for good dough.
Heads-up, that spoiler formatting might not work for users not on Sync.
Yeah, doesn’t work on boost.
Which is weird
spoiler
because boost has a button to add spoilers.
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.
I checked and it doesn’t work at all on the web.
I don’t think that spoiler worked. Maybe because it’s all on the same line
No, it’s a play
Published in 52 by Les Éditions de Minuit. In a book.
“En attendant Godot”
Yeah sure, I’ll admit defeat. Btw, weird flex for an Irishman to write a play in French…
That makes me feel old. It’s Waiting for Godot the classic play.
Don’t feel old. A lot of people just aren’t into plays.
Did you read it in high school? I did. And I’m old haha.
I mean Im over 40 and Ive never heard of it. We didnt read plays in high school.
Wow, we read all kinds of plays in English and drama class.
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.
I am also Canadian. But probably old enough to be your mom.
You could be but she’s not very old. Could be a province or eastcoast/westcoast thing too.
I think I read it in drama class.
So, let’s go then
No, we can’t go yet
Why not?
We are waiting
Waiting? For whom?
For Godot!
Oh, yeah!
