That doesn't look like a potato salad, that looks like cookies

Huh, maybe the picture's blurry. It looks like potatoes to me.

[+Doomstick he/him]

Me too

I can vaguely see it, but it looks like chocolate chip cookies at first glance.

Edit: Okay, the changed version definitely looks like a potato.

(Please ignore the next couple of profile pictures, I'm just putting random photos on to see what looks good)

(Seriously, go look up salad stock photos. They're great)

Noted!

I won't let my unbridled fury toward potatoes sweep me up in a fit of hatred.

Spoiler

I'm kidding, for anyone who's not in the Alleyverse.

Someone please explain the Alleyverse to me I'm so confused.

I hate The Potato. (I'm actually indifferent toward potatoes.)

Do you want me to explain this specific joke, or the entire RP, or like what because I'm happy to do it

Also I'm sorry but I had to immortalize this one.

I am laughing waaaaay too much over that right now.

Like seriously someone send me help.

The whole RP, I guess. Every time I go over there, I'm just so overwhelmed.

That's 100% fair. Nobody understands all of it, not even the people who made it.

Sooner or later there'll be an easy packaged way people have made for this to be explained, but basically the Alleyverse is a universe which connects to all of Brandon's books, and has something like another dimension called the Alleys, and a bunch of organizations called guilds. The Dark Alley is a heavy influence (and what created the world both IC and OOC) and is a giant guild living and working in the Alleys, doing a lot of science and baking and Hemalurgy (they love combining all three by putting spikes in their baked goods, with a focus on cookies). The main guild I'm in, The Underground Bakers' Association, was founded to oppose them but now no longer formally does, and just provides unspiked baked goods.

You can keep asking me any questions you want, whether OOC or IC, I love talking about stuff like this.

*Starts laughing even more hysterically* Oh no, it's reached the second stage. 

I actually completely forgot that I changed my profile picture so I logged back in expecting my original one, but was greeted with a guy holding up some lettuce as if he's never seen it before. Why do I find this so amusing? I don't even know what I'm going to do about a profile picture anymore...

Okay, that clears up my confusion (mostly, I think. Though if no one truly understands it then I think I'm fine). I've always been on the fence about joining because on one hand RPing is fun, but on the other I don't know if I have enough time to devote to a larger-scale RP.

[Truthless of Shinovar he/him]

Hmm... sorry, this is all a bit upside-down-ish, isn’t it?

Anyways, after reading the state of Sanderson, I decided to take a look at the Mistborn coins, and decided to buy the keychain. It came super quick and it’s SUPER AWESOME. Sent from the Canton of Finance itself!!

Edit: I just checked the website, turns out I accidentally read last year’s state of Sanderson

Glad to help! And I'd recommend joining - it definitely is fun. While the world itself is larger, you often only have to pay attention to a couple IC threads at the most. And if you ever need help or get confused, there's a subforum full of people who are happy to answer any questions you might have.

I'm trying to recruit you, but don't feel pressured

So, not saying that I am going to join, but hypothetically, if I did want to, how would I? 

It's not like a character idea just suddenly formed in my head and I'm in the process of developing them or anything.

[The Awakened Salad they/them]

No, it is you who shall be going to sleep!

[Honorless he/him]

Go back to sleep, Salad! Victory is mine!

 

Edit: (Yes, I cheated)

[The Awakened Salad they/them]

Okay, I'll admit, that did confuse me. 

However, I will not be deterred!

[Honorless he/him]

All will fall before my ingenuity!

[Nathrangking he/him]

Or my victorious ways.*
