  1. Still waiting on a feature that lets you store unused upvotes and then unleash them all at once. I propose we call this "Obliterationing."
  2. I don't remember my score on the SAT, but I also remember it not mattering as much as everyone said it did. (I also went to community college for two years before transferring to a four-year university, so that probably impacted my view of those tests.) Also... I'm sorry. It sucks. I know it does, and I know how much it sucks, because my parents would do the same thing. All I can do is reiterate what Delightful said—cultivate supportive friendships outside of your family, even if they're online. And don't let your parents criticize those friendships. Well, let them—I don't see any way of stopping them, if that's what they do—but don't listen to their criticism. If you find some friends who are good for you and they help you see the best in yourself without dragging you off on wild "sin parties" every weekend (or….something…..I'm not sure what teens are into these days ) then lean on them. Don't let your parents spoil it.
  3. This seems like a very roundabout way to learn an oddly specific lesson.
  4. A bit closer, but this is an annual event.
  5. No, but closer. It's not a reality show, either.
  6. Voidus? Any objections, or will the zucchini trigger Bioterror's weakness? Is…is this where I make a comment about pearls before swine?
  7. And Obliteration is so distraught over the loss of his loyal cockatoo that he destroys the entire state in his rage. That, my friends, is what happened in Oregon.
  8. Apparently. Another option is that this is his bird which we never heard about in Firefight for some reason.
  9. After hearing that it's what Obliteration sat on, I decided to Google "apocalyptic sunbathing chair." For some reason, I got this.
  10. Thanks. On another note, has anyone ever wondered how a chubby pug makes it up the stairs? Wonder no longer.
  11. He interested me at first….but then, I don't know what happened. I wish I could have prevented it somehow, because I'm not sure at which point, exactly, I lost interest. I think I just didn't give him enough facets, and for that, I know I failed him. The random powers thing might work, but I've no idea how Rainmaker could use a pastrymancer to control her populace. Should he summon the Metal just in case?
  12. No and no. The armies are pretty small, if that helps.
  13. Don't deprive yourself of cake on my account. I was considering it—the world setup is fascinating, but I can't think of a character from that world that interests me, and the last thing I want to do is join with a character I'm not passionate about. As for whether the Metal would be summoned with 40,000 zucchini….it doesn't seem likely, considering Bioterror's fondness for reducing populations to zero, but the Financier might summon him to tell him about his new friend.
  14. Fritos go well with a surprising number of things. Refried beans is definitely one of them.
  15. Why? Why must I be at work, unable to celebrate all of this cake-eating with cake?
  16. You and your husband are good bicyclers. You are also nothing like the cyclists where I live. These cyclists will actually use the vehicle lane, ​getting in front of a line of cars 5 or 10 deep, blissfully unaware of the fact that the speed limit is 45 and they are incapable of going faster than 20. Or they'll cut across a vehicle lane without signaling or waiting for traffic to clear, forcing cars to slam on the brakes.
  17. ….I tried to cut a slice, but the cake seems to be protected by some sort of screen. Well played, Edge.
  18. Two armies, chosen through elimination throughout a set period of time, fight in a bloodless battle for treasure.
  19. With a little bell he rings whenever he needs one of his Epics to bring him a glass of chocolate milk or something.
  20. Make it pink and sparkly, just for funsies.
  21. More WoK progress updates. How I feel looking at my progress when I have an assignment due Tuesday: Oh, and then there's Dalinar: …who is only slightly less insane….
  22. New fan theory: All of the most insufferable and self-righteous Epics were cyclists before Calamity.
