Per Brandon, he didn't set out to make that joke but once he realized that he'd unintentionally set up functioning tinfoil hats, he went with the joke. Quote Questioner (paraphrased) I caught that reference. [in reference to tinfoil hats blocking emotional allomancy] Brandon Sanderson (paraphrased) I built aluminum to do all sorts of funky things to all the powers, and I actually hadn’t made the connection of tinfoil hats until after I’d built it in, and I was writing it in Alloy of Law, years after I built it in, saying “Wait a minute! I just put tinfoil hats in the book!” (laughter) So I actually built that without thinking that there would be a joke to that. West Jordan signing (Dec. 15, 2011) Quote Questioner Was it a deliberate move on your part to make it such that on Scadrial, people who wear aluminum foil hats actually are safe from mind control? Brandon Sanderson Yeah, yeah that was a big inside joke. *laughter* When I realized it would work, I had to put it in. *pause* I’m doing some fun things. The gun thing is another one I’m very fond of. Shadows of Self San Jose signing (Oct. 9, 2015)
