postfix spoiler alert

An acknowledgment of a spoiler very much like a spoiler alert except that it's provided after rather than before the spoiler in question. See, for example, the Dinosaur Comics strip for April 15, 2011.

By extension, any would-be warning preceded by the thing it's supposed to warn against.

"So then Snape kills Dumbledore. That's a particularly infamous spoiler." "Nice postfix spoiler alert, you numskull." / A week after the drop deadline, the registrar told me I was taking the wrong classes and wouldn't be able to graduate till next semester. Talk about a postfix spoiler alert! Does he think I'm Merlin or something?

White spoiler 

Built on the same model as "white lie", a white spoiler is either:
- a spoiler of no (serious) consequences
- a spoiler dropped by accident

A: "Did she just spoil the entire film?"
B: "No, don't worry. It's just white spoiler. She only told you what happens in the first two minutes of the movie."

or

A: "Jimmy! You just told me how the story ends!"
B: "Oops… Sorry. White spoiler. It just came out."

no spoiler rule

An unwritten rule which involves people telling others NOT to spoil the events which would go on in either a movie, TV show, video game or anything else that entertains a person. It soon became really popular in social media through memes, posts, videos & etc.

It was a no spoiler rule which prompted my refusal to watch"Avengers: Endgame" simply because I feared people would cause problems if I was to break it.
