You Know You're a Sanderfan When...

I meant that because Brandon is always so specific in the words he chooses to use to explain cosmere stuff.

Okay, yeah, makes sense. =)

Which character did you have in mind as the psychopath? Zane? Straff Venture?

Actually, I was thinking Kelsier.

When you have a choice between studying for finals, or rebinding your copy of the Well of Ascension because the cover fell off. And of course you choose the book.

When one of your coworkers enters into your office shouting "colors! colors!" and your first reaction is wondering if he's a nalthian worldhopper.

Alas, nothing so spectacular. As one of the enterprise chemists, I am in charge of preparing dyes under 5 grams of wheight, and so he was just asking me to make a color. Still, I tried to tell him about nalthis. I don't think I was much convincing, though.

Are you sure the guy wasn't Vasher in disguise again?

Or is HE Vasher?!?

You know you're a Sanderfan when you read the sentence "Toru flared his Power" as "Toru flared his Pewter". Though in my defense, the guy's Power is becoming super-strong and super-tough.

When you realize Rogue One came out on the 16th of December in 2016, and you're all like: Oh wow. Sixteen is an important number.

When you pass a street named Chiquita and do a double take because you read it the first time as Chouta.

Speaking of Chouta... Did anyone else start reading Lopen with a thick New England accent after that first Chouta scene? I know I sure did.

Maybe more that you realized....16+12+20+16=  64.  Or 16*4.....and sqrt 16 is 4.

16*126 = 2016.

 

Inquisitorati confirmed!

December 16th is the 16th from last day of the year.

Suprised you didn't mention the golden ratio  

Wheny your friend who's skiing in Colorado calls you an Airsick lowlander, so you change his contact name to Numuhukumakiaki'aialunamor

When I was forced to do some Mindfullness Attentitive Training before an exam once, the teacher told us 'focus on your breath Breath.'
I was trying so hard not to laugh throughout the entire thing.
Now, focus on your Breath...

When you go on vacation and bring along WoK as some light poolside reading. 

[A Budgie she/her]

When you see a 'Standard Archive Box' and take a moment to think of Stormlight.

I realized today that the only Sanderson books I do not own are BoM, all Alcatraz and non-Cosmere short stories and novellas. I'm closer than I thought to perfection 

[Emerald101 he/him]

When you and all of your sanderfriends got together about once a month to eat chouta, carry a homemade bridge around BYU campus, sing Sanderson-inspired song and recite the first KR oath, and talk Sanderson. When each of you has a cosmere - mostly bridge four - name (I was Nazh). The joys of living in Utah, that there are some 15 of us.

Sadly, the two group leaders have now left for their LDS missions, and the group fell apart.

Okay, that's insanely awesome. 

My only Sanderfriend is an employee at Books-A-Million with a super-cool Syl tattoo. She's a coworker of my best friend's sister.

And I wasn't even the one to convert any of them, I found out about this b/c one of my friends was initiating the thing and wanted me to come along for the ride to explain some of the in-depth things they weren't aware of. That friend of mine had self-converted and then converted almost every single one of them on the basis of it being good and clean, which is pretty persuasive among a bunch of nerdy mormon high-schoolers.

That's excellent, considering I can't get any of my fellow strange musical depressed gay Southern agnostic high-schooler friends into it.

I'm sorry but any time I see a long string of adjectives I have to add "robot pirate laser zombie vegan mutant raptor ninja ranger doctor captain penguin". Can't be helped.

When you decide that if you ever own a ski resort, you'll name a ski-lift Wyndle.

[A Budgie she/her]

To be fair though, when you add lots of adjectives to anything it becomes amusing.
And you're very lucky to have lots of friends who are fellow fans. I'm getting one of my friends into them, and my mum's started reading them...but I don't really know anyone else in real life who knows them.
