I got pinged before I left...

When you reply to the post pointing out your Sanderfanness 6 hours later, having slept in between. Possibly, in fact, sleep-Sanderfanning.

(I totally do the same thing. With slightly more sleep)

When you actually know the meaning of the word "maladroitly"

[The Technovore he/him]

When you watch a Film Theory about how Spiderman would die every time he web-swinging due to the laws of physics and think:

"Oh, so Peter Parker is also unconsciously burning pewter. Makes sense, really."

This is amazing. I wish I had more upvotes.

When you've had a vague hope for 2 months that your rep count will catch up to your post count exactly at 1337, and you notice this, and then realize you care, and then tell yourself IT DOESN'T MATTER BRO. And continue arguing with yourself in this vein while you should be working.

Dude.... Dude... Look at my rep. 

Now look at my post count. 

You sir, are winning at... Post.. Rep... Ratio... Stuff... 

Edit: speaking of, when every time you look at your post count you wonder how it jumped up a couple hundred more...

Nah I’m not looking to compete. How could I compete against the glory of @Knitwitz with 3 posts and 46 rep.

And least of all against you Calderis. You’re my bruvva from annuva Bava. Din.

No, I just want 1337ception. A glorious moment in which all the 1337 comes together in a swirling highstorm of 1337.

Well there are a couple for the cause.

Don't post anything else!!! I'm gonna go find some of your old posts and give you rep so that you can get to 1337 at the same time as 1337!!

[Calderis he/him]

@Extesian watch and be careful with how much support you get here. You don't want to accidentally out rep your l337ception

[+Extesian he/him]

Ha! I'm sorry Chaos. Don't ban me. I'll never talk about rep again, I promise

And please, no upvotes for this, I like my jokes but I do want to earn my rep, it's a pride thing

(You guys are rad though)

Edit - achievement unlocked!

You should definitely take back any upvotes that were related

Oh and you know you're a Sanderfan when all of THAT just happened

[Tesh Any pronouns]

When the first question you ask someone you have just met is 'Have you heard of Brandon Sanderson?'

Or you go to Barns and Nobel and get five books, four of which are by Sanderson and the other one if the Eye of the World.

Or you stay up till two in the morning to finish your book so you can start Arcanum Unbounded.

Boy, this list could go on, and on, and on, and on.

When you nickname your albino parakeet the assassin in white.

One of the things on your bucket list is to own all of Brandon Sanderson's books in hardcover and get them all signed.

Or all you do with your best friend is discuss the Cosmere.

I'll stop now. Maybe add some later.

When you start reading the WoK intro to your 9 year old sister and your mom walks and and asks 'Are you sure this is age appropriate?' So I stopped. And told my sister to read the Reconers trilogy when she's older.

[Ammanas]

@Tesh like this? 

[Tesh Any pronouns]

@Ammanas Pretty much.

Could you imagine telling people you read a lot of BS?

That'd actually be really funny.

Also, I'm a sanderfan because I've started recommending his books to everyone. 

[Necessary Eagle she/her]

When you realize that certain concepts in your stories, which you've been having a lot of trouble putting into words, can be explained with Realmatic Theory.

When you see that your Uber driver is named Honour, and think "I guess he's not dead, then."

[Calderis he/him]

When you can't stop discussing Sanderson long enough to read Sanderson...

Did you ever finish Aether of the Night?

Ugh, I wanted to upvote most of the posts above me because @Calderis and @Extesian are pretty awesome, but I'm out of upvotes. You're both too hard on yourselves, you guys are awesome. I haven't seen Pagerunner, Spool, Argent, or the others in all their glory yet (though I know how good they are), but you guys are just amazing. Like, I'm starting to get into the theory scene, and you guys are like the perfect role models for what I want to be as a theorizer. Oh, @The One Who Connects is another amazing example of a modern theorizer that's awesome. Basically everything has already been said about you guys, but I just wanted to say it all again.

Pagerunner discovered harmonium. I've got mild hero worship for that alone.
