Wow, Months? It has been almost a year... It took you a lot longer to get her to read Mistborn than it did me to get you to read Mistborn. In the time it took for you to get 1 person to read Mistborn, I convinced 6 people to read Mistborn (although to be fair only 4 so far have actually read past the first book).

I think my friend has the record for fastest conversion. I'd seen her reading WoK in the mornings, but one day at lunch she just up and dragged me to the library and checked out the first two MB books. I started reading immediately. So... A ten-minute conversion?

Then again, as you may be able to tell from my username, I read a lot of things. ... Some of them are... Bad... and I really should've done more research into them before starting.

I too have a working respiratory system.

How did I upvote this twice? What? Ah well, no regrets. It was a funny post.

When you see the word 'void' and your first thought is Voidus.

When you wear a Sanderson shirt to your first day of school, and ask one of your teachers if she's read anything by him - and decide to do the rest next time.

When a teacher wants you to make "name glyphs" (name tags, apparently, only you draw on them) and you try to remember glyphs. And utterly fail.

It means someone else upvoted in between you coming to the thread and upvoting, so it reloaded the upvotes.

Thanks!

Someone says the cookies were spiked.

 This girl I knew would get so hyper after eating this one type and would say that. 

I always did a double-take and checked to be certain they weren’t

When you re-read Harry Potter and can't stop thinking about how Hemalurgy would work with wizards.

Spoilers for Harry Potter

Would you spike out all of their magic or just certain types, and what about those with special skills, does Harry's magic and Horocrux status count as one thing or two things?

[Ethan_sedai he/him]

when you're asking your friends about how they will get somewhere, and your friend who works for Brandon says that he can just walk from Cosmere, and you DEMAND to know where the perpendicularity is before you realize he means where he works  

Sorry about not giving all that much information about what he does for Brandon, I'll ask him next time I see him. 

Also, in addition to picking up other habits from Alcatraz,  I've picked up some habits that were around a while back in the shard, and I've also learned how to use footnotes!*

When you get your sister to finally read Mistborn, and the first thing you do is put it on the 17S.

Guess what? I finally got my sister to read Mistborn!

I mean, if you have magic, then you can do any type of magic. So I assume one spike could be fine

But what about Harry being a Horocrux (did I spell that right) you probably need a different spike to get that out, but because the Horocrux is a spell would it be connected to the magic Harry already possesses.

You guys know those squiggly floater things on your eyes? I like to imagine those are Cryptics

Yes, you're right. That could definitly be cryptics.

Inever thought about it that way before...

you probably want to put that in a spoiler box

When you realize Las Vegas is totally of the Void

[NoiseSpren he/him]

When you read You Know You're a Sanderfan When... because you don't want to be only Sander-freak in all the world.

I have watches with two small blue lights. I occasionally light them up and breathe in at the moment they stop glowing.

[Rebecca she/her]

When your sister asks you to help her come up with a metaphor about herself (for English class), and you tell her she is a potato in a mine field.

[+Sorana she/her]

When nobody wants to discuss their favourite books anymore, because they all know what you will say.

(and I will continue to tell them to read his books until they do...)

[Undead Wookiee]

when you go into depression because you read everything and can't wait for more to come out. the only solution is to read them again

[Ishar]

When you have to raise a shelf on your bookshelf because the shelf below it is to short to fit any of the Stormlight Archive books.

[+Ark1002]

When you willingly listen to a shardcast. And no, I have not forced anyone to listen to one.

[Undead Wookiee]

When you make yourself remove non-sanderson books from your bookshelf so you can fit newly bought sanderson books on said shelf

YKYASFW your science teacher from last year got a bunch of sanderson swag, and gives some of it to you and your friend, and you get extremely hyped. 

(I got a Syl sticker and a bookmark with a map of Roshar, my friend got a koloss sticker and a map of Luthadel)

You have the best science teacher ever.

Although mine did respond to my joke about cosplaying Kelsier, after my lab partner accidentally shattered a test tube, which nearly cut my arms.

When you convert your science teacher.

When, after the summer, you return to school to find that she's finally finished Mistborn. She loved it and said it was the main thing she read all summer. I'm so going to nerd out with her...even though I no longer take biology. Full circle - this was my first post on this thread.

When you do a double take upon reading the name Senna in Breaking Dawn, then conclude that obviously Leras was talking about a worldhopping vampire and the Twilight Earth is in the cosmere. Because what possible other options are there? Definitely no others. DEFINITELY.

[Ink he/him]

Why is it always the science teachers who are converted?

when you're reading a book (Earth Unaware. Orson Scott Card. Check it out!) and someone's name is Wit, and you can't not think of Hoid.
