    OK, so, if you guys ever need to look at photographs of a visually stunning man for any or no particular reason, look up Wylie Gelber. He is the bassist for Dawes. I met him once, after a show. I got a picture with him and everything. He is a phenomenal bass player, and not a bad looking dude. (Also, really tall. I'm 5'10" and he had to bend down to get in the photo. Also really thin, built like yours truly.) The man builds his own instruments in his garage. After the show, I asked him "So, Wylie, where'd you get your bass? What kind is it?" and he said, completely nonchalant, "Oh, I made it in my garage." He also made the lead singer/guitarist's pedalboard. I don't usually go on tirades about people but this guy is epic. You may now return to your regularly scheduled whatever-else-you-were-doing-before-you-read-this.

    Nale should send Szeth the Skybreakers after Stick, then. (Szeth and the Skybreakers sounds like a high school garage band. I speak from experience, as I am in a high school garage band.)

    Probably, even though the books you buy are nicer (nice Iron Heart profile pic, by the way!)

    Interesting...

    More specifically, adult coloring books that cost $20 more than regular coloring books. Don't get me wrong, I love coloring, and I'm all for stress relief, but that's money that I am not spending on coloring.

    The Kingkiller Chronicle by Pat Rothfuss. Sanderson's Warbreaker is also excellent. I have it on PDF from Brandon's site, if you want it.

    Just use a voice recorder of some kind until you feel better, which hopefully will be soon.

    Just do what I do when I need money: sit on a street corner playing guitar at a moderate volume, with your guitar case or a hat in front of you, and people will throw money in there eventually.

    I play guitar (I've been playing about a year and a half, I picked it up really quick and apparently am talented at it), I sing, I play piano, I play ukulele, I can play bass, drums, all sorts. I own, like, 3 acoustic guitars and 1 electric which I love and cherish. I've always wanted to be in a band, so I guess performance.

    I'm still a freshman in high school, and I plan on going into music, so when I learn about moles, it won't be for long. But I feel for you, Mistrunner.

    Probably "Brand New Day"

    I feel like we'd get along famously, Misty.

    @Elenion Let's not start a guild war on this poor new user's "Hello" feed...
  15. marsoupial
    Good, 'cause if you had, there'd be a total turf war. Y'know. Internet turf.

    The Assassins In Technicolor Clothing take unspeakable offense at your accusations regarding our delicious home-baked cookies (accusations which are totally false), @Elenion.
  17. marsoupial
    Folks may say the cookies are "spiked" or some such nonsense. That's not true. They're just crunchy. And after you eat a few, they really begin to speak to you. Just don't eat too many. You'll Ruin your appetite.

    Secret History is very good, a worthwhile read if you're into the mythos of Mistborn. I'm on book one of WofT. Warbreaker is another excellent Cosmere read. I have enclosed the PDF from Brandon's site. Warbreaker.pdf
  19. marsoupial
    No, just the example I thought of. Thanks!
  20. marsoupial
    Shhhhhh. The cookies are good.

    Welcome, @Cealque! Here at the Shard, any and all are welcome. I look forward to hearing more from you. Just learn the lingo, be nice, and try not to get a headache from all the crazy theories that we post (and feel free to post your own!) Have a cookie!

    Could an Iron Compounder Pull on their own metalminds?
  23. marsoupial
    Thank you, Wilson

    Gah! Sorry. School wifi is terrible. But, yeah. Questions?

    So, I love music; I sing and play guitar and piano and ukulele and a bunch of other stuff. I'm also in my school chorus, and we're doing a weird 3/4 time a capella arrangement of The Beatles' "With a Little Help From My Friends" In the song, there's a few solos we can try out for, including a short one in which you go "I need someone to love" and then some ad libs, and I tried out. Apparently, I totally belted it out and astounded the director and all the other choir students. People like me now! No one liked me in middle school, and people like me now! Whoa! I'm happy but confused and unsure how to respond to all the undue attention. But y'know. Just roll with the punches.
