  11. Random Stuff II

    in Forum Games & Random Stuff

    Darn it. Well that was gonna be a bit mean anyway.

    1. Get a piece of wax paper and put glue on it in the shape of a spill. Mix food coloring as desired. When dry, peel off of wax paper and arrange in keyboard.

    2. Attach air horn to main post of chair, so when he sits down, the shock absorbers engage and set off the horn.

    3. Take a screenshot of his desktop while he is gone and set it as his desktop background. Next, hit Control+Alt+Delete and close "system.exe" This will basically close part of the visible operating system but leave the background that you set. He will be futilely clicking on nonexistent buttons.

    4. (This is possibly the most evil one, except for the soda one) Get his phone number somehow. Make up some professional-looking posters that say something like "Chewbacca Roar Contest: Call <his number> and give your best impression of Chewbacca's roar in the voicemail. Contest ends <whatever date>! Winner receives <some kind of fake prize>!" Of course, a picture of Chewbacca's head is mandatory on these posters. Put them up anywhere where he won't see them. Like literally anywhere around town, near a comic book store, in an ice cream place, wherever. When you're ready for the prank to be up, just tape one somewhere in his office and wait for the reaction.

     

    I literally saw one of these at BYU, and thought it was real. Weirded some random girl out by leaving her a Chewbacca roar message, found out it was a prank. took down the poster when I saw it next.

  19. Crocodiles, Bunnies, and Panthers

    in Cosmere Discussion

    As I was re-reading Warbreaker I noticed something very out of place for BS's writing. It's when Lightsong and Siri were talking about bringing in a storyteller to answer some of her questions about what was going on with the God King 

     

     Chapter 27

     

    “Watch out for the rocks, Vessel,” the high priest noted. “They look rather insignificant, but have sharp edges under the surface.

    “Bah,” Lightsong said. “It’s the crocodiles you have to watch for. They can bite. And . . . what exactly were we talking about, anyway?”

     

    Sanderson in the past (cough cough WoK) goes to great lengths to make the world seem completely original as possible. The only animal that seems to cross over from time to time is the horse. However, a crocodile?

     

    When I noticed that I thought of other examples.

     

    Lightsong talking about a red panther in his dream.

     

    Hoid talking to Kaladin in prison about bunnies and chicks before telling him the story of Fleet. 

     

    There might me more. I cannot find them however.

     

    The only thought I can have to  fathom this is that the shards were from Earth, and as they came to each world they brought the ideas or concepts of animals and plants to their worlds. I have read to many BS books to think that this means nothing.

     

    This is my first post! So if I'm doing something terribly wrong please let me know.

     

    BS books *cringe*

     

    but yes, yolen and scadrial are fairly earthlike.

  20. BAD JOKES UNITED!!!

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Two antennas met on a roof, fell in love and got married. The Ceremony wasn't much, but the reception was excellent.

     

    These friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise funds. Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the competition was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close. They ignored him. So, the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to "persuade" them to close. Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he'd be back if they didn't close up shop. Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that only Hugh can prevent florist friars.

     

    :D
