I am a Cosmere purist, and object you you calling Reckoners just as awesome as Stormlight.

Didn't we have one or two going already in the darker alleys corners of the 17thS?

My friends and I just had a long conversation about Mistborn and the depth of both the worlds and the characters. One of them has read TFE through BoM plus SH, like me, but the other just finished HoA and is getting increasingly annoyed by our wide-eyed, wordless reactions to SH and BoM. However, we did agree to back off a little bit, since it is finals week and she doesn't have time to read.

 

... well, neither do I, but that never stopped me. :D

You know that you're a Sanderfan when you start annotating your copy of WoK with all of the info that you've found on the 17th Shard.

I do this too! I also highlight any creature names that I think might not be on the Coppermind, as well as any name that's Israeli. He does this all the time. Brightlord Yonatan and Brightness Meirav are both Hebrew names (my dad is Yonatan).

I wonder if that's on purpose... either way, that is really neat.

You know you're a Sanderfan/Fanderson/Cosmerenaut when you immediately think of Mistborn whenever you hear the word "ruin".

I would not be the least surprised if it is. Brandon puts a lot of thought into his names.

Sanderson Ruined a lot more words than that for me: awesomeness, anything having to do with sticks, the Waxing and Waning of the moon...

IIRC those are inserts for real people or something along these lines.

I wonder how much Moshe Feder (his editor, not Israeli AFAIK, but definitely Jewish) has to do with that.  (I noticed that too with Yonatan and Meirav, but I don't remember any others.)

When you see a license plate that reads BYUCREW but your brain interprets it as BYUCREM.

When you see the word "dominant" first as damnation (SA) and, when you look a second time, as dominion (Sel). 

It kept switching between those two and I had to ask a friend what the word was. Even then I had to squint before it registered in my brain.:lol:
