Also, you know there's a problem when WoK and WoR are too tall to fit on your bookshelf.

That's when you know you have a normal sized bookshelf.

Were you?

The answer is probably yes.

[Sami she/her]

When you finish teaching and your reaction after getting paid is to immediately pre-order Oathbringer.

I barely own any of his books either, I'm ashamed to say . On the very insignificant account of money....

When you quote Kelsier in an attempt to justify your always being slightly late to everything to yourself.

If you can figure out that mess of a sentence I'll give you a cookie.

[Draginon he/him]

Saw a restaurant today called Kel's. I immediately thought about Kelsier and wondered if instead of liberating Scandrial he went on to become a chef

Honestly, I can still never figure that stuff out, so if I use it, it's by accident.  

I was referring to his quote about how if you're early, it implies there was nothing better you could be doing.

I can't make any sense out of it either. That's why I said it. 

When you are on the Shard and watching some of Sanderson's lectures at the same time. I'm on #3. One of the first things I noticed in #2 was the fact he had a Bridge Four sticker on his water bottle.

When the best pre-birthday gift you can get is a hardcover box set of Reckoners and an order for Oathbringer when it comes out. My friends are awesome

[Emerald101 he/him]

When getting on the shard is more important than the lab report due tomorrow.

First thing I noticed on #4 was his shirt....

'Hello, would you like to destroy some evil today?'

I need to get that shirt.

Or this one that his all the orders of the Knights Radiant on it...

Or all of the surges...

Only problem is, I currently have $5 in spendings.  I spent all the money I had before on Sanderson books.

When people around you are sick of hearing about Brandon Sanderson so you scour the internet for people to discuss with!

When I talk about Sanderson, people just ignore me. Well, they ignore me anyways. *shrug* That's the nice thing about the Shard. My voice is heard. I talk about books a lot. 

[Calderis he/him]

When you know you get new sander it's in the morning, so you can't sleep.

One of my college essays is on the cosmere. Probably a bad idea.

I feel like whenever I bring up Sanderson, people just smile at me benevolently and go "ah yes, ______ loves Sanderson."

 

 

Nobody ever takes me seriously

I feel like whenever I bring up Sanderson, people face-palm violently and go "ah yes, ______ loves Sanderson."

[Sami she/her]

Me in the middle of a discussion on how we all love reading: [goes into a long rant about his great Sanderson's books are, and the magic systems]

My friends: "yeah yeah, we get it. We should totally read Sanderson. Now - back to the discussion on the greatness of these silly-sounding pink and fluffy romance books about a girl agonizing over her crush's girlfriend-"

Me: are you kidding me, guys!?! 

*facepalm* 

 

EDIT: note that the above is not discrimination against pink and fluffy romance books - it is simply me agonizing over the fact that most of my friends waste their reading time over books like that when Sanderson is out there

No, that's a great idea. Look at what happened when my friend wrote a rhetorical analysis on Stick: 

See? Great idea, even if yours isn't sarcastic.  Good luck writing your essay. Those can be killer. Even if it is cosmere-themed. 

[Necessary Eagle she/her]

You're reading an article about a group of people called "Brigade Four", and you misread that as "Bridge Four".

[Tesh Any pronouns]

@Brightness Enna That's great. Absolutely 100℅ amazing. 

[Faceless Mist-Wraith he/him]

Your friend says they need to stop by the ATM, but you hear "atium".

[Emerald101 he/him]

When you laugh out loud on public transportation because of the sample chapters.

When you see someone reading WoR on the train, hear them mention it's their second time, and can't resist telling them about the sample chapters.
