I don’t get it

Mrderisant ,

Waiting for Godot is a book.

mkwt ,

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. 😅😂

voidMainVoid ,

Well, yeah, that is one of the interpretations.

funkless_eck ,

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

jaybone ,

He was waiting for good dough.

MBM ,

I don’t think that spoiler worked. Maybe because it’s all on the same line

can ,

Heads-up, that spoiler formatting might not work for users not on Sync.

mkwt ,

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.

can ,

I checked and it doesn’t work at all on the web.

Yeah, doesn’t work on boost.

saigot ,

Which is weird

spoilerbecause boost has a button to add spoilers.

cm0002 ,

Ohhhhh, I thought it was about Godot, the C# game engine

AeroLemming ,

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.

mindbleach ,

That’s what it’s named after! “The engine you’ve been waiting for.”

TheyCallMeHacked ,

No, it’s a play

Published in 52 by Les Éditions de Minuit. In a book.

“En attendant Godot”

TheyCallMeHacked ,

Yeah sure, I’ll admit defeat. Btw, weird flex for an Irishman to write a play in French…

BonesOfTheMoon OP ,

That makes me feel old. It’s Waiting for Godot the classic play.

can , (edited )

Don’t feel old. A lot of people just aren’t into plays.

BonesOfTheMoon OP ,

Did you read it in high school? I did. And I’m old haha.

can ,

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.

BonesOfTheMoon OP ,

I am also Canadian. But probably old enough to be your mom.

can ,

You could be but she’s not very old. Could be a province or eastcoast/westcoast thing too.

BonesOfTheMoon OP ,

I think I read it in drama class.

altima_neo ,
@altima_neo@lemmy.zip avatar

I mean Mm over 40 and Ive never heard of it. We didnt read plays in high school.

BonesOfTheMoon OP ,

Wow, we read all kinds of plays in English and drama class.

Norgur ,

So, let's go then

No, we can't go yet

Why not?

We are waiting

Waiting? For whom?

For Godot!

Oh, yeah!
