Chrono Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Ohio totally is like Roshar. If you don't like the weather, just wait till the next day. The seasons will have changed on you so that you get a day that is 70 in january, and a day that is 35 in August. Utah is definitely the same. We've gotten snow in July before. One year we got two feet of snow all winter, the next we had no snow at all. Either we're on Roshar secretly, or the gods of weather are bipolar when it comes to us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delightful Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 When you have an entire conversation with someone about book size, and conclude that you could never have an SA omnibus because you could neither print it nor carry it around. I worry about box sets too. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khyrindor Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 When you decide to write a fanfic, but then you realize that it will probably be the size of a rather long short story, because there are so many awesome things to do! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesomeness Summoned Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 When you have an entire conversation with someone about book size, and conclude that you could never have an SA omnibus because you could neither print it nor carry it around. I worry about box sets too. Nothing to worry about. It will just have a more fitting name since your omnibus will be an actual book filled bus. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmingly Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 I want a single strip of paper the width of a receipt printed with the complete works of Brandon Sanderson so I can have wallpaper for my entire house. Each room will be named after a different book. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobold King Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 When you walk around in public with a thousand-page book, much to your family's embarrassment. Why the embarassment? It's a sign of physical prowess. It is more likely tp attract a mate or frighten predators than it is to embarass anyone. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
