Obligatory Hello Post!

[Lexodio]

Hello all. I plan on "wasting" a good chunk of time here in the future.

Firstly, I listen to audiobooks, so I apologize if I don't take the time to spellcheck names before I spell them incorrectly. :-) Also, Michael Kramer and Kate Reading are amazing narrators.

My first Sanderson book was TWoK, then TWoR. After that I heard about this Cosmere thing and was enamored. I then found out about the wheel of time because of Sanderson's work on the final books (which I realize is a reverse of the cause and effect for many).

I've since listed to Elantris, The Emporor's Soul, Warbreaker, and more recently, The original Mistborn trilogy and The Alloy Of Law and Shadows of Self. With getting The Bands of Mourning today, I figured that it's about time I join my people. Rust and Ruin, it took me long enough.

I've noticed from other threads that the cookies tend to be hemalurgic spikes. That does not sound tasty.

They really aren't.  I prefer my cookies to be chewy, not crunchy.

Don't bother with the "T" in TWoR or TWoK, just cut it out and go WoK or WoR

Shut.Up. Cookies are fine.

Oh no of course they are tasty.

And not Hemalurgic Spikes.

I mean, who has ever heard of something as ridiculous as "hemalurgy"

on another note, how exactly are cookies the ideal delivery method for a hemalurgic spike? Sure, it'll catch your prey off-guard, but how will they not notice a metal spike when they are eating? And what if they are a horneater? They'd just bite right through it.....

I'm an Obligator, too! Well, was, at least, for a while...

It kinda relies on the idea of stop thinking about it, as far as I can tell. Also, the supreme power of innuendo.
