You storming genius

When you correlate Epic the Musical and Sanderson 

Just a Man (song about how he doesn’t want to drop a baby off a wall) is like OB spoilers:

Spoiler

Dalinar at the rift 

Polyphemus, in which a favorite sheep is killed, WaT:

Spoiler

Szeth and Molly

Survive: need I say more?

Remember them: Literally Kaladin

Spoiler

”But captain, what’ll we do with our fallen friends?

Remember them, when the fire begins to fade, for the fallen and afraid, we are not to let them die in vain

Remember them, we’re the ones who carry on, the flames of those who’ve gone, and our comrades will not die in vain”

”My friend is dead, our foe is blind, the blood we shed, it never dries”

Storm: It’s just a highstorm

Spoiler

Brace for a stoooooorm, stooooorm, the likes of which we’ve never seen before

The Underword: Szeth/Kaladin

Spoiler

All I hear are screams, every time I dare to close my eyes

I longer dream, only nightmares of those who’ve died

Nothing’s what it seems (nothing’s what it seems)

For in the Underworld you past is close behind, this land confuses your mind

Little wolf: Telemachus getting beat up

It’s just like Kal in TWoK

600 strike:

Spoiler

For every comrade, every one of my friends, almost all of whom were slaughtered by your hand, 600 striiiiiiiiike

When you find out that these security cameras are called seons and start laughing then your friends think you're weird for laughing about the name of a security camera

 

When people say chivalry is dead and you respond with chivalry is not dead so long as it lives in the hearts of men

Not sure if this counts a spoiler or not, but thought I’d be safe

when you see and interesting pattern on a wall and scream in delight that you’re a lightweaver

when you boil water and yell that you’re soulcasting

When you have more posts on here than on any other social media

Just so you know, you're meant to say what book you're spoiling

Thanks for editing the post - you can also be more generic when it is not plot relevant (e. g. SA Spoilers)
The reasoning is, how would a reader know if it is safe for them to read the spoiler box if it is not labelled?

Real tho...

Technically group me is social media, but I just use it to text my friends.

[Wasing the want of this]

When you are reading mistborn and your friend asks what you are reading and you tell her, then when she says she hasn't heard of it you recommend the book that you decided they would want to read.

When another one of your friends complains that after the book she read, random stuff reminds her of the book and you start laughing because she just agreed to read cosmere books.
