Newan he/him Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 You know you're a Sanderfan when you refuse to refer to your roommate's cremlings as "hermit crabs". That's just ridiculous. They're obviously cremlings. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookspren Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 (edited) Is he tall with black hair and blue eyes? And does he periodically disappear for a few days, only to re-appear mysteriously and give cryptic hints about where he's been? Well, he is rather tall and extremely fond of cryptic answers. If I ask him how he did something, the standard response is "sorcery" or "magic". His mannerisms are very Hoid-ish, which is what made it so perfectly hilarious.

Twenty@20 he/him Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 When you think that all swords in fantasy movies should behave like shardblades (looking at you LoTR) and expect slo-mo visual graphics for shardblades in action. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titan Arum Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 When you order personalized books from Brandon for no other reason than to ask a question in the "Personalization" field because you've never been able to ask your question at a real signing or Con of some type. (And I must say, I hope that all of these personalized books are money well spent and not just "RAFOs"...then again it's still money well spent because Brandon deserves every cent he makes from his amazing books!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bookspren Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 When you realize you are closest to ISTJ on the Myers Briggs type indicator, discover they are described as dependable people who will make sure things get done, and think "Ha, I really am a Stoneward!" When you wonder if it's significant that there are 16 types. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjustice99 she/her Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 (edited) You know your a sanderfan when you lie to your friend (who you're making read Mistborn) saying that TLR=Alendi to make the plot twist of TLR=Rashek more intense.By "you" I mean "me" (or "I" depending on context) because I seriously just did this. When you want to try on a ballgown to be like Vin. When you feel a bit exposed when your safehand is uncovered. When everything on your Christmas list is from Brandon's website, or one of his books. When you spend 30 minutes looking for a WoB to prove something. When you see this on your profile: Most Active InMistborn (16 posts ) and think that it is the most amazing thing that will ever happen in your life.

mail-mi he/him Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 When a friend asks a question about mistborn half way through and you respond with RAFO. I have done that so many times and it's the greatest thing.

Delightful Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 You know your a sanderfan when you lie to your friend (who you're making read Mistborn) saying that TLR=Alendi to make the plot twist of TLR=Rashek more intense. By "you" I mean "me" (or "I" depending on context) because I seriously just did this. I once gave Mistborn to someone who usually works out plot twists early on. He was SO disappointed that he was barely halfway through and had already worked out that TLR must be Alendi. Like legit actually disappointed that this amazing book wasn't going to surprise him. I laughed so hard at that. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Joe in the Bush Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 When you kick a bald child with cancer across the room in front of the kid's parents just you can tell people that you have "kicked someone's Shin". I wanna upvote that cause it's clever, but at the same time I wanna downvote it since it's horrible. . . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BreathTaker he/him Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 That is horrible... I'm laughing right now but I don't want to. Ya know... a bald kid probably would have worked too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbird he/him Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 Even just using a smaller bald person would have worked better, seriously, i'm laughing, but I shouldn't be. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Joe in the Bush Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) Yeah, maybe edit out the cancer part. Then I'll give it an Upvote. EDIT: Upvote given. Edited November 24, 2014 by The Only Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasimir he/him Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 I'm going to hope you didn't actually do that and you're just saying it for kicks. When you forget to codeswitch when talking to a friend who hasn't (yet) read the Stormlight Archive and you describe your lecturer as having "flipped his chull" over something. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oudeis he/him Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Yeah... I don't see how adding "cancer," "in front of parents," or even making it a child to begin with, added to the "humor" without being purposefully mean. I'm not sure how you can make those decisions without knowing that you're just trying to say the most shocking, borderline offensive thing you can think of in the belief that this will make the joke funnier. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatebreaker he/him Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 When you become excruciatingly angry at yourself for sullying this Sandersonian bit of the internet with your poor decision. Kudos for owning your mistake. That's extremely rare on the internet. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
