Colours Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Because more meta is best meta. This is a thread for making up remotely Brandon-related discussion topics, discussing the discussion topics, and maybe having the discussions that the discussion topics would entail. How remote is too remote? I have no idea! Shall we... Talk about the complete and 100% factual history of the name "Brandon" (which undoubtedly involves large amounts of conspiracy and possibly a prophecy or two)? Think up good Awakening commands for his favourite childhood pencil case? Have shipping wars over which two of the leaves on the (hypothetical) tree outside his window look cutest together? Whatever you can think of, fire away! (I personally think the second leaf on the far left branch should absolutely go with the one with the little black spot on it. They're so tragically separated by the (hypothetical) lamppost! You are, of course, welcome to disagree.) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobold King he/him Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) The best remotely-related Brandon topic I can think of is discussing remotely-related Brandon topics, especially if that discussion included remotely-related Brandon discussions about remotely-related Brandon topics. Because more meta is best meta, right? Edited May 25, 2015 by Kobold King 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgedancer he/him Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 What about discussion that are remotely Brandon-related, by being remotely Sanderson-related in our discussion like tlaking about the son of sand, which is randomly also named Brandon? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have OTP armour! I'm sure of it! ... (Mistborn) (cough cough Vin x Elend) (cough cough Sazed x Tindwyl) (cough cough Lord Ruler x Swivel Chair) Yes, bring forth the meta!

Adamir he/him Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Yes, bring forth the meta! Let us have all of the Meta-Meta Brandiscussions about Sandertopics (?) that are possible to bring into existence! When you add an exclamation mark after meta, it looks at first glance to be metal. It might just be my eyesight, though. I would upvote, but, and I quote, 'you have reached your quota of positive votes for the day' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colours Posted May 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Ah, so he argues his books are useless? Which they are not, they are very useful for forgetting things. Which is why he forget they were useless? Good Sir/Madam, I believe you are mistaken. His books are, in fact, Eustace. Easy mistake, I understand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaa he/him Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) One possible remotely Brandon-related discussion topic is "Sanderson Characters in Well-Known Comedy Sketches".In such a discussion I would contribute this shortened version of Monty Python's Argument Clinic sketch, starring Hoid:Man Who Likes An Argument: Ah, I'd like to have an argument, please.Receptionist: Certainly sir. Have you been here before?M: No, I haven't. This is my first time.R: I see. Well, do you want to have just one argument, or were you thinking of taking a course?M: Well, what is the cost?R: Well, it's one pound for a five minute argument, but only eight pounds for a course of ten.M: Well, I think it would be best if I perhaps started off with just the one and then see how it goes.R: Fine. Well, I'll see who's free at the moment.(Pause)R: Mr. DeBakey's free, but he's a little bit conciliatory. Ah, yes, try Mr. Barnard; room 12.M: Thank you.(Walks down the hall. Opens the wrong door.)Hoid: WHAT DO YOU WANT?Man Who Likes An Argument: Well, I was told outside that...H: Don't give me that, you snotty-faced heap of parrot droppings!M: What?H: Shut your festering gob, you idiot! Your type really makes me puke, you vacuous, coffee-nosed, malodorous, pervert!!!M: Look, I CAME HERE FOR AN ARGUMENT, I'm not going to just stand...!H: OH! Oh I'm sorry, but this is Wit.M: Oh, I see. Well, that explains it.H: Ah yes, you want room 12A for Argument. Just along the corridor.M: Oh. Thank you very much. Sorry.H: Not at all.M: Thank You.H: (Under his breath) Stupid git! Edited May 26, 2015 by skaa 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
