You Know You're a Sanderfan When...

When you try to inconspicously read Oathbringer at a family reunion. Unfortunately, there is nothing inconspicuous about Oathbringer or my reactions while reading it.

Lol this has been me in all of my college classes this week... just finished like 30 minutes ago and I've probably scarred my roommate with all my rambling and various noises

When you finally finish Oathbringer (ignoring all else but the essentials), and feel like you can never read another book again. Unfortunately I have to read other books for English...

[PlanetReelo she/her]

When all of your passwords contain something to do with Brandon Sanderson/the cosmere because that's the only way that you can remember them.

When you're about to march onto the field and perform your final show in the marching band season, and instead of panicking about your performance, your mind just comes up with a random cosmere pun and you have to hold back laughter so you're instructor doesn't scream at you for not staying quiet.

Q: Why did Kaladin join the order of the Windrunners?

A: Because he was a surgeon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here's the joke that randomly came into my head:

@Warbreaker_Weiss Brilliant!

@Warbreaker_Weiss It's posts like these are the reason I'm on the Shard xD

[Tesh Any pronouns]

When you dream about the endpapers in OB. (Which I am finally reading)!!! I also had some other weird Cosmere related dreams that night.

[Taliax none (name only)]

When you still haven't emotionally recovered 3 days after reading Oathbringer, and are practically exploding to tell everyone you know all the spoilers about everything.

Only none of my real life friends are done yet and there's a certain amount of screaming and noises that don't translate well onto the internet  ^^;

[Tesh Any pronouns]

When you start crying in joy after page 78 of OB. Yes, I'm not even to 100 yet. But that will change. But it is so good! 

I'm going to get ready for school.

[Elsecaller3414 she/her]

When you spend all of your phone battery on the Shard... I mean, mixed reasons, including Oathbringer, but still, it’s been all afternoon... my mom is going to kill me if she finds out...

[Tesh Any pronouns]

When you read 100 pages of OB in one sitting. 

Spoiler

This spoiler tag does not exist...

But it's getting sooo good.

I only just finished chapter 14.

I should probably go to bed now...

[Shadowmancer he/him]

@Tesh haha, you are in for a WILD ride, my Surgefinder friend.

When you read from 7:30PM to 6:30AM STRAIGHT through Oathbringer, and take a quick 30 minute nap so you don't die at work. Then you dissolve into "GAH!!!" and "Finish Word of Radiance already so I can give you Oathbringer then finish Oathbringer so I can flip out about it with you!"

Also, when you have trouble explaining the Sanderson/the Cosmere to your friends without sounding like you're having a psychotic breakdown.

And when you get really frustrated that Chrome doesn't recognize "Sanderson" or any other Cosmere-y words and underlines them in red. I know how to spell, storm it!

[Penumbra]

When google chrome gets confused and puts the front page of the 17th shard as the icon of your business web page on the "most visited websites" section as you start up the browser ... uh.

100? That's nothing! I read the first 200 pages when I got it. Now I'm wondering what that says about me.

200 pages, thats nothing. I read the whole book when I first got it

[Tesh Any pronouns]

@King Cole @MasterJack I take in every word, and I'm savoring it. We won't get another SA novel for at least three more years. And I really don't like speed reading.

[MistbornAlpaca he/him]

Honestly @Tesh, I also prefer to read slow and enjoy it, but I did get a little carried away when I first got it. I'm only on pg. 700 or so now,so I've really mellowed out.

[Shadowmancer he/him]

@King Cole Right there with you, buddy

[King Cole he/him]

Well, Im aout to read it again, and again, and then again, so Im happy

[MistbornAlpaca he/him]

This Day In History shows up in my inbox on November 14th. 

What is wrong with these storming people! Oathbringer's release is not included in the summary!? That's the best storming November 14th I've ever had! 

People these days...

I'm on chapter 16 right now. Luckily, Thanksgiving break started today and my marching band season just ended. I see a few hours of reading in my near future!

I'm on 16 as well. I've hardly read at all. (The internet is a huge distraction).

I can relate to becoming distracted while trying to read. It doesn't help that my dad decided to buy tickets to Justice League a few minutes ago during the time I had reserved for Oathbringer tonight.

You know you're a sanderfan when you make a hat out of aluminum foil so you can't be affected by emotional allomancy.
