Melaan Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I'm a Sanderson fan but I'm also a nice person. I'm a slower reader than my husband, so I let him read Calamity first.I'm a nice person.Hubby won't stop gasping and using the word 'epic'.I'm never being nice again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arrae Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Today I was listening to a TEDTalk about how technology is replacing human interactions with clean, human-to-robot ones. I snickered every time the speaker mentioned "connection". And then they mentioned cultivating your relationships... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugsy he/him Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 When.... Well, no real way to phrase this concisely, so I'll break standard format and just tell the story We're doing a persuasive essay on GMOs in my Language arts class, and today we had to do an impromptu debate to make sure we had actually done research the night before like she asked. I was in the middle of talking and for some reason (Freudian Slip?) I mentioned that you could "invest one organism with the genetic information of another to produce a variety of beneficial effects". Needless to say, most of the class was confused. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork he/him Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 When your library gets a new Sanderson book, you find out the day it's coming back, and sit next to its shelf for 6 hours waiting for it. I have done this 3 times. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delightful Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 So today I met someone named Nazh...... Did he try to buy a map? Or try to make a picture of you? Or did he have a coat? How wet was it? She did none of the above. She didn't take particular notice of me, I think. My identity is safe for now. We may be one step ahead. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfa he/him Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Cosmere confirmed. All of our worst hopes and fears have come true. Ready the sticks for the defense against Odium. It was argued, that the Stick is a splinter of Odium (see the "favorite sanderson villain" topic). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfa he/him Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 When you go camping and start talking to a stick and all your buddies worry about you.

theuntaintedchild he/him Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 (edited) When you write a multi-page essay on why Mistborn is a classic for your English class Edit: true story. We had to write a persuasive essay on what should be considered a classic after we spent a unit reading Shakespeare, etc. I chose Mistborn and got an A Mistborn will be a classic. Simply for the way it was written. Sanderson had the entire trilogy finished before the first one went out for publication/distribution. It is the most complete trilogy I've ever read. I don't think anyone had attempted something like this before and I sincerely hope that future authors will take note and finish their stories before presenting them to an audience. Sanderson will usher in a new wave of writers, changing the way stories are told from now on. He will become a legend. He was the first. The rest of us merely followers. I started this off as a serious post but realized soon after starting that I was getting a little "occult-y" so I thought "In for a penny, in for a pound" XD Edited May 4, 2016 by theuntaintedchild 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
