minus-square@cm0002@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink48•1 year agoOhhhhh, I thought it was about Godot, the C# game engine
minus-square@mindbleach@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink2•1 year agoThat’s what it’s named after! “The engine you’ve been waiting for.”
minus-square@mkwt@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink20•1 year agoIt’s a play. And the famous spoiler is that ::: spoiler Spoiler Godot never shows up :::.
minus-squareDoctor xNolinkfedilinkEnglish8•1 year ago“Where is your Godot now!” … Sorry, couldn’t help myself. 😅😂
minus-square@voidMainVoid@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink4•1 year agoWell, yeah, that is one of the interpretations.
minus-square@funkless_eck@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink6•1 year agono. 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
minus-square@can@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink3•edit-21 year agoHeads-up, that spoiler formatting might not work for users not on Sync.
minus-square@mkwt@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink2•1 year agoI’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.
minus-square@can@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink2•1 year agoI checked and it doesn’t work at all on the web.
minus-square@saigot@lemmy.calinkfedilink1•edit-21 year agoWhich is weird spoiler because boost has a button to add spoilers.
minus-square@MBMlink1•1 year agoI don’t think that spoiler worked. Maybe because it’s all on the same line
minus-square@AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink4•1 year agoPublished in 52 by Les Éditions de Minuit. In a book. “En attendant Godot”
minus-square@TheyCallMeHacked@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilink1•1 year agoYeah sure, I’ll admit defeat. Btw, weird flex for an Irishman to write a play in French…
minus-square@BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilink8•1 year agoThat makes me feel old. It’s Waiting for Godot the classic play.
minus-square@can@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink13•edit-21 year agoDon’t feel old. A lot of people just aren’t into plays.
minus-square@BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilink3•1 year agoDid you read it in high school? I did. And I’m old haha.
minus-squareAltima NEOlinkfedilinkEnglish7•edit-21 year agoI mean Im over 40 and Ive never heard of it. We didnt read plays in high school.
minus-square@BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilink2•1 year agoWow, we read all kinds of plays in English and drama class.
minus-square@can@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink1•1 year agoNo, 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.
minus-square@BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilink1•1 year agoI am also Canadian. But probably old enough to be your mom.
minus-square@can@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink2•1 year agoYou could be but she’s not very old. Could be a province or eastcoast/westcoast thing too.
I don’t get it
Waiting for Godot is a book.

He was waiting for good dough.
