Titan Arum Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) When your favorite part of a camping trip is the drive because you get uninterrupted reading time. This is precisely why I love commuting to work on the subway: a full hour every day of reading Brandon's books...over and over and over again (however, I'm now reading Gardens of the Moon while also intermittently reading the Hero of Ages). When you go to your mother's house for Easter and the first thing out of her mouth (instead of a hello even!) in a dejected voice was that she can't get a copy of Elantris from her local library. My response: gifting her my e-book version then and there. Edited April 7, 2015 by Titan Arum 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaladin Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 When... The Lopen tried so many times to suck in Stormlight, which he obviously would never have access to.But then it worked. Maybe if I keep trying ... (don't ask where I got the infused spheres from) 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistrunner Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 When you and a friend are talking about Ice Inquisitor Olaf and she suddenly bursts out with "Does that mean Elsa is Ruin?!" leading to an in-depth discussion of what Mistborn characters Frozen characters would be. When one of your posts gets a "popular" star and you feel like you've won an Olympic medal. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistrunner Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) When you realize the reason you don't like Game of Thrones (all you fans, don't kill me!) is because they're always saying "winter is coming", and foretelling the future is not of Honor.

Sirce Luckwielder Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 When a survey asks for your religion and you put "Church of the Stick." Did you really do that? That's amazing. I actually converted someone to the Church of the Stick. They have never read a novel other than Mistborn and have no idea what I am talking about, but they think it's cool anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaladin Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 When you read about ancient peoples using darts, and your mind wanders for a few minutes thinking about Mraize... And you realize Shallan was probably not in a whole lot of danger when Mraize was shooting darts near her (see the post-WOR Jasnah scene) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connormce10 Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 When you decide to rewrite Godwin's Law for the 17th Shard because it's the only place you participate in online discussions. Original Godwin's Law: "As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1." My 17th Shard version: "As a 17th Shard thread grows longer, the probability of an unnecessary reference to the Stick approaches 1." Of course Nazi references do pop up on here, but not very often, and very rarely in the sense which Godwin originally meant. Heil Nazi Stick! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistrunner Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 When you start posting a half-billion posts everywhere at 11:00 PM and become depressed that no one responds or upvotes.

Mistrunner Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 When depression sets in when you realize you would be a terrible Rithmatist.

I actually converted someone to the Church of the Stick. They have never read a novel other than Mistborn and have no idea what I am talking about, but they think it's cool anyway. Yes, it was an online university survey about discrimination on campus; in the "Religion" section I checked "Other" and typed Church of the Stick in the explanation box. The next page asked if I had ever received unfair treatment for religious reasons, and my first thought was "There have been times when a poorly placed mention of the holy Stick meant an immediate shower of downvotes..." and you certainly get strange looks when someone is trying to make you change your mind and you reply "I am a stick." 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This made my day.In any case, you know you're a Sanderfan when you lend your nice copy of Mistborn out, and then you start to feel nervous. Did I judge this guy's character well? How will he treat my book? Will I ever see my book? We never know. Edited April 9, 2015 by LarkoftheRiver 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured he'd like Ashe better, so I did that instead. When reading this makes you want to compose a poem in Aons using their symbolic meanings to convey emotion...and all those vowels just sound nice. Then you realize what a project that would be, and decide to do it over the summer...maybe...possibly...OK, I'll have forgotten by then. -Sigh- 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king of nowhere Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 When you start drawing love Aons in front of a certain someone. when you think that's sweet. I don't remember the aons by memory (not sanderfan enough for that), but if a girl attempted that on me, and i recognized she's drawing aons, and recognized the one she's drawing when consuulting my copy of elantris, then there's a good chance I'd reciprocate her just for that. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dankworth Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 [...] if a girl attempted that on me, and i recognized she's drawing Aons, and recognized the one she's drawing when consulting my copy of Elantris, then there's a good chance I'd reciprocate her just for that. Me too. I'd recognize Omi (love), Rao (spirit), maybe a couple others, but I think I'd be interested the moment I saw Aons, never mind being able to read them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
