        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 :::.

          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

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

            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

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