GoWibble he/him Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 As is Investiture, Vessel,. Shard, 17th, 16, Ambition, Devotion, Odium, etc. It's more of when you add words to your Google dictionary like "metalmind" and all of it's derivatives 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinkoln he/him Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Those were the words I thought of while waiting for school to be over. Now that I have had some more time to think: Feruchemy, Allomancy, Hemalurgy, Thaidakar, Sazed, Szeth, Rashek, Stormlight, Stormfather, Dysian Aimian Also, I know that perpendicular is a real word, but I don’t think perpendicularity is a real word. A small change, but autocorrect loves to do small changes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezzik Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 Perpendicularity is a real word, it means the state of being perpendicular. As in, the hands of a clock are in perpendicularity at exactly 3 and 9 o'clock. It is also used in engineering/design as a type of tolerance. For example, the perpendicularity tolerance of the corner join on this cake form is half a degree. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenduLuke he/him Posted May 1, 2021 Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 When you spend hundreds of pages arguing fantasy war contests and physics in the Cosmere and refuse to let the subject die even if others tell you that your wrong much of the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liahona Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 When you spend a half hour going through all of Brandon's books on Goodreads and adding them as to-reads or giving them ratings and consider it a wonderful use of your time. In addition, when every video game animal you catch/tame/unlock is named after the cosmere in some way, sometimes without realizing it. (For example, naming one of your horses in Breath of the Wild "Amara" and realizing weeks later you accidently named a line of code after Amaram and mentally smack yourself.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quivil she/her Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 When you're doing econ HW and have to write out the graph axis names and you write "real gross domestic product" and think of 1) what Wit would say about that and 2) what Lightsong said to that other Returned about not wanting to hear any secrets involving him (the other Returned, not Lightsong) and a privy. When the red squiggly lines under Cosmere words no longer bother you. Mostly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quivil she/her Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) When you hear there's a metallurgist in the ward and want to talk to her because... well, metallurgy! You know your sister's a sanderfan when you say (speaking of a pond) "It's misting." and she says "What metal does it have?"
