When your dad says something about spiked punch, and you immediately think that the punch has hemurgalic spikes in it.

When you're typing an essay for Astronomy, and you keep accidentally putting Cosmere in the place of solar system, galaxy, universe, etc.

When you classify a 132 page story as a 'short story.'

The company I am working at is celebrating the launch of our new product today. My calendar reminder popped up saying "Ship party" in 15 minutes. I groaned inwardly as my mind first assumed it meant that I was going to a party where everyone debates who they "ship" in the various series.

I agree 100% with your opinion on that.

When your brother is complaining about how his stubbed toe hurts, and you tell him, "Well, at least it won't hurt like that forever. You should be grateful that you aren't an Elantrian!"

When you are reading the climax of Words of Radiance during a thunderstorm, and get the incredibly stupid idea of reading through it in the rain. Don't get me wrong, it was the greatest reading experience I've ever had, but my hardcover copy is missing its hardcover.

That's why I wish you could buy laminated books.

Okay, that is really good. It's really hard to get little details and stuff, so I like how you modified it slightly. 

How'd you get it on there so well?

I printed a glyph off the internet. Then, I cut only partly into the skin. I scraped that off, then cut a line into the center of the scraped off part, so more light could get through. It was very delicate work. I couldn't cut all the way through, that would just be impossible to do that and get the level of detail. So scraping off the top layer does the trick. Cutting a line into the center of that just makes it look better.

@Steeldancer Thanks!

Oh wait. 

When I printed it out, i toothpicked it into the pumpkin. Then I used a sharp pencil to poke holes to make an outline. I used those to guide my knife.

OK. 

We're going to carve them tonight, actually.

I'll post a picture when I'm done.

When you go to a family Halloween Party dressed as a Mistborn, and no one knows who you are. My aunt called me the Grim Reaper, and a cousin called me a dementor. But luckily, I have a cousin who does read Sanderson, and he came later in the day, but he knew who I was. It made me so happy that someone understood my costume.

I did that too my ward's trunk-or-treat. 

Absolutely no one recognized me. 

So then I grabbed the rubber unicorn mask...

When you are so insanely busy that's you barely have time to finish all of your overdue assignments and have to stay up past midnight to finish them - but of course, there's definitely enough time to check the Shard and reread WoR a couple of times... :ph34r:

I went to a Halloween party at BYU dressed as Vin, and at least ten people knew my costume.  I also saw another Mistborn there.  :)  I was actually surprised there were that many people that got it, and then I got to talk about Oathbringer with several of them and it was great :D

I just finished my pumpkin!

It took forever. But it was worth it. Very much so. :D
