Netflix India tweets comical disclaimer about 'Dark', asks to calculate mass of the sun
Netflix’s posted a disclaimer for fans that has conjured humour in comments thread, noticeably, the dark viewers have been advised to indulge in other errands.
While Netflix’s German-language series Dark has been trending with a new 10-episode season that hit the screens featuring ominous dark-themed locations, eerie forests, scantily lighted garage, and dim rooms, Netflix posted a disclaimer for fans that have conjured humour in the comments thread. Noticeably, Dark viewers have been advised to indulge in errands such as “differential equations or calculating the mass of the sun” in a tweet posted by Netflix on its official handle. Internet instantaneously begged to differ stating that those tasks were yet, seemingly easier.
“If you're watching multiple episodes of DARK remember to take a break and do something less hectic like solving differential equations or calculating the mass of the sun,” Netflix wrote, with a hashtag #darknetflix. While the post was liked over 11 thousand times, netizens agreed that their “life would be different” once they finished binging on a complete season. Many discussed that it was easier to calculate the mass of the sun which some wrote, “is 1.989 × 10^30 kg” but the impact of the series, the ugly secrets, grotesque killings, and dead birds, would linger on for much longer.
Netizens struck with horror, confusion
“Please come up with some commerce jokes, all my commerce friends are scared of watching it,” a user requested, jokingly. “After watching all the three seasons of #DarkNetflix, anybody can be a specialist in Quantum Physics, Big bang, Blackhole, Time travel, parallel universe,” said the other. “I've watched entire 3 seasons in 22 hours without any sleep,” wrote the third. However, most users agreed that Netflix's advisory might not be as effective because “calculating the mass of the sun is an easier job than understanding what's going on in Dark.” Narrating his experience about the sense of swoony horror that inflicted him while watching the show, a commenter wrote, “Take a break,” while he made exercise meme recommending a good workout instead.
