Steel

schizophrenic OCD programmers,

Welcome! The Farseer trilogy by Robin Hobb is pretty good, Malazan Book of the Fallen is also quite interesting.

I hate "We Are Young" by Fun. I hate it so much. It just does not make any sense whatsoever. I will now go through the song, analysing the lines one by one. Give me a second I I need to get my story straight Okay, this line, at least, makes sense. He's drunk, and can't remember what's happening. My friends are in the bathroom Getting higher than the Empire State And where are you? My lover she's waiting for me Just across the bar Again, where the hell are you? My seats been taken by some sunglasses Asking 'bout a scar Has Voldemort taken to wearing sunglasses and asking about Harry Potter? And I know I gave it to you months ago Who did you give what to? A scar to some sunglasses? I know you're trying to forget But between the drinks and subtle things The holes in my apologies You know I'm trying hard to take it back TAKE WHAT BACK!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?! THE SCAR!?!?!? So if by the time the bar closes The if should be omitted, otherwise this sentence makes no sense. And you feel like falling down I'll carry you home Tonight We are young So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter Than the sun Tonight We are young So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter Than the sun Now, this chorus is what ticks me off the most. We are young. That implies two things, or one of them: that whoever is speaking, and his lover, I presume, are young, and have their lives ahead of them to enjoy and cherish. The other implication is that they are young and carefree, and willing to take risks. However, the next line completely contradicts both implications. He says that he wants to "set the world on fire", and that he can "...burn brighter than the sun." By setting the world on fire, they would destroy themselves, and making it "burn brighter than the sun" would, in fact, leave absolutely no trace of them or their bodies. So unless, when he says "we are young", he means that they are, in fact, drunk suicidal teenagers, he is completely contradicting himself. In addition, the fact that he wants to destroy the world shows a psycopathy, of sorts, which does not bode well for this artist's reputation. Now I know that I'm not All that you got At this point, it is unclear if he is talking to his lover, or some Mistwraith. In either case, unless the entity is poverty stricken and has no possessions whatsoever, then he/she is OBVIOUSLY not all that he/she has got. I guess that I I just thought maybe we could find new ways to fall apart For this, a punctuation mark is my only response: ? But our friends are back So let's raise a cup Wait... Where are you sitting? Also, I don't believe your friends, who are, as stated, "higher than the Empire State", are in any condition to be raising a cup. Cause I found someone to carry me home Whom, may I ask? Tonight We are young So let's the set the world on fire We can burn brighter Than the sun Tonight We are young So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter Than the sun Carry me home tonight Just carry me home tonight Carry me home tonight Just carry me home tonight Who are you talking to? Maybe you should clarify this. The world is on my side In which case, why do you wish to burn it? I have no reason to run Then don't! Nobody told you to. So will someone come and carry me home tonight I THOUGHT YOU WERE ALREADY BEGGING SOMEONE ELSE TO CARRY YOU HOME! Also, if you need someone to carry you, how do you think you're going to carry the person you promised to carry in the first verse? The angels never arrived Were they called? But I can hear the choir Perhaps that is simply your hallucinations. Don't forget, you're in a drunken stupor. So will someone come and carry me home By God man! We know you need someone to carry you home! Jesus! Tonight We are young So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter Than the sun Tonight We are young So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter Than the sun So if by the time the bar closes And you feel like falling down I'll carry you home tonight Contradictory statements galore! And that concludes my rant for today.

Here's one: Granted. You have a child. It's a one day old lizard. I wish for telekinesis.

I beg to differ. Christel Holch is five.

When you regularly use "..., kulo?" at the end of a sentence. When you write "I am a stick" in your notebooks, and, when questioned about it by your teachers, attempt to convince them to admit that they too are truly sticks. When you name all the characters in your DnD campaign after ones from the Cosmere. When you remind all your friends to read Brandon Sanderson to the point that it becomes an hourly routine. When your life's goal is to meet Brandon Sanderson. When you attempt to summon your Shardblade when someone insults Brandon Sanderson, and then, failing that, slap them round the head and call them airsick, colorblinded, foolish lowlanders. When you are heartbroken because you can't get Brandon Sanderson merchandise to your house, and read Brandon Sanderson to mollify yourself. When your computer crashes because of the amount of 17thShard tabs that are open on your browser. When you devote hours and hours to drawing/writing Sanderson fan art. I'm a Sanderfan, kulo?

My partner, Melody

NOOoOoOoOo! Cause then we can't go to the midnight release

Continuation > Harry Potter > Arc Number > Brandon Sanderson

When you dream about having a higher reputation than Kobold King. EDIT: When you make a post in YOU KNOW YOU'RE A SANDERSON FAN WHEN... and see that you're an Obligator, and scream with joy.

Has anyone considered that Calamity could be sentient? And if it is, is it sapient? If so, does that mean it has morals? If not, then could it be an object of extreme power being controlled by someone? That seems pretty similar to a Shard, although Calamity is not a Shard. And I just realized that all those questions will be instantly RAFO'd :/

I wouldn't mind.

Granted. You are now able to draw stickmen perfectly. I wish to be fluent in all the languages of the world, including dead languages, and to be able to speak them.

Granted. If you're a player, you die. If you're a DM, all your players die. I wish I had Hoid's left ear.

I wouldn't mind a game or two.

boogers and blood

Great game, though I didn't play much

Meanwhile, the Cremling ran into the tree of Origin. "Stupid Life Tree!" the Cremling said. The tree summoned a Tiny firebringer. it was measured at one millimeter and 13 micron. The tiny firebringer brought fire. Huzzah! But the cremling was flame resistant. Unlike the tree which burned down. Then a Goat flare Pewter. The goat teleported Tacos into the shattered icebergs of Western Universities. Pizza froze Solid, but some quickly melting sausages melted her heart. But then mistborn-llamas spat luminecent bile onto the Goat. "I am Stick" Said Stick Proudly "No. Fire is your current Form." "I'm not Stick?" "You're not Stick, but a Firebringer" "I am a Firebringer? How strange? I'm not a Silly Stick anymore?" Don't worry my Precious. I'll make them pay dearly for their Treason. But just the, fire burned stick and no ash shrieked in pain. So Shallan changed Fire into rock, shaved quite fabulously Tozbek's Thaylen eyebrows, which are Luxurious. Fire into rock, shaved quite faboulusly Tozbek's Thaylen eyebrows, which are luxurious burts into flames of pink colouration. Then Brandon Sanderson wrote 1000 books About stick. It was the Weirdest And lamest of his book series. So he burned The stick to Make the room look less like Dyring's Inn. But it failed woefully. The stick reappeared, consumed a greatshell And Turned Evil. Lord Evil Stick died tragically from being Soulcast by her imperial majesty, Lift, the Empress Of the Moon Lift then collapsed, But was Lifted metaphorically; literally however She was held Down by Shiny, the awakend lamp, who slapped her. Chaos is Here! He backslapped everyone. "Ouch!" they cried "Please don't eat!" But Chaos ate every living soul In his sole. The sole soul Was cobbled by Ym, master cobbler. He also bakes Darkness into Pie. But Bakery's sin And cobbler. Nale Really likes nails and delicious pies And has tea-parties with his Skybreakers The Almighty Didn't like tea parties; tea yes, parties Also yes, but Tea parties, no. Poor tea parties! The teapartyspren was devastated, inconsolable, distraught So they jumped Into the Shardpool and became Pandaspren! But Relane Ate Kung Pow chicken and gained awesomeness. Lift was jealous; Wyndle didn't care. And Syl was Put in Detension for speaking out about Wyndle. Outraged, They dinosaured away, hitting a Thunderclast With rusty Shardforks and crusty Shardbaguettes Served on Plardshates with Purelake halibut Hoid's dismembered head Was used for a Tarachin Ball Hoid tossed around His Own Head and Lightsong beat Adolin in the Tarachin tournament. Hoid, Irate at his loss And his Beheading Enlisted the help of the Santhid. But the epics conquered Roshars´s ocean. Twisted aberrations, they were vanquished by An angry Shin who ate Shards like extroverted candy Covered Lerasium bread with Atium cheese And Swallowed it exploding into rainbows, pandas tumbling down From the heavens Into Odium's mouth. Who then says "Rutabaga! What they Are doing is Unacceptable! Pandas are Not Canon! So we must now summon the RAFOnator!" A wild Edgedancer performed an autopsy with a Shardblade and a piano that was Awakened by Calvin Hobbes. Of course, many years have passed, and now Pride and Honor must engage in a shining dance contest. Cringing at the embarrassing dancing by all the lesser Awakened clumsy doors

I'm reading Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb, and I've ordered Gardens of the Moon to try out, so I will be reading that soon.

Hahah! That's cool! upvoted

Granted, you get it. It dies a day later. I wish for an unlimited supply of gold and an unlimited supply of things to spend it on.

When you use every opportunity you can find to quote Brandon Sanderson.

We want proof, Weiry, proof! It has to be a sombrero!

frozen green river!"

I speak fluent Arabic, and I'm a native English speaker. However, despite living in a country where Arabic is the official language, my reading and writing skills in Arabic are appalling. I am also learning Spanish, although I'm nowhere near proficiency.
