My friend watching Sherlock for the first time: oh my god, they (John and Sherlock) are so gay when do they get together?
Me watching it for the fifth time: damn are you in for a ride
My friends: they don't get together? They date other people? Sherlock is actually married to his work and isn't playing hard to get? John has internalised homophobia? They marry other people? Oh my god, does one of them DIE?!
Me: Yes.
Oh, the utter confusion on her face. y'all should have seen it.
