    Dial down the snark, it's making you overreach; discussion thread means discussion of any and all content of which the thread was created for, and episode previews (I still can't believe this) are part of that content.

    It's insanely irrational and egotistical to insist that, in an discussion about things that happened in the current episode, that the preview(which is a collection of things that happen in the NEXT episode) has to be discussed as well.
    Even though you flatter me by mirroring my sentence usage, please don't put words in my mouth. I've never said a preview has to be discussed, just that it's insane to not want it to; you don't have the right to not know, only the right to not participate.

    And they BOTH said I was free to continue discussing it, even though they wouldn't change their minds.

    So I did.

    If you don't like it, nothing is forcing you to keep reading.
    Nobody had called you fucking stupid either, all this irrational discussion has got you hallucinating.

    Funny coming from the first person in this thread to actually respond venomously to it.

    They really aren't. They're commercials for the next episode that happen to air right at the end of the current episode. They put them after the credits for a reason.

    A simple Ctrl-F will show that you're wrong.

    (A) I'm the only person to use the term "fucking stupid" and it clearly refers to the concept that an episode preview is a spoiler (comparing it to saying the OP/ED is a spoiler in that same way), not an individual. The reasoning, not a person. But hey, egotism. I called you a whiner only...which ya are.

    (B) Previews are not always at the end of the credits. They're quite frequently in the middle of the ED, so they're most certainly not commercials that just "happen to air right after." They are part of the episode. I can't believe how many times we have to reiterate this.

    edit:
    Since you'll just refuse to believe me, some examples:
    - Suisei no Gargantia
    - Magi Season 1
