Introduced my son to ska and it's the best decision I've ever made. There's no chance this boy is getting anyone pregnant before he's at least 30.

For a second I thought this was a mistborn meme and was like "that's fucking dark!"

Wait, is there a place for mistborn memes??

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (2 children)

https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] is the basically the only one I'm aware of, and it's not exactly active. The community just never really made to shift from reddit.

In fact, there's more subscribers for https://lemmy.world/c/cremposting, and it's basically just a redirect.

Maybe I should actually post something and see if I can stir up some activity. Or just send @[email protected] some Mistborn books and wait.

Ok, I need to pick the Mistborn series back up... I have the first 3 books because my wife read them, but I got distracted midway through the first and never went back.

If I read them, I promise I'll seek out and/or make some memes. Lol

Oh you are in for a treat.

And honestly, the memes are as good a reason as any to get into the series. Hell, I sent a friend all six^1^ books just to get him hooked enough to help nudge our gaming group into playing the wild west setting in the RPG.


^1^ This was before book 7 came out

I've heard very good things. I had no idea there were 7 of them!

With two more trilogies planned. And possibly another trilogy between those two trilogies (he has an idea but hasn't committed. I assume he'll do it just to get it to 16 books, which is the significant number throughout the series)

The great thing about Sanderson is that he's a machine that just won't stop writing. The man wrote 5 extra books in secret just because he could.

The terrible thing about Sanderson is that he's a writing machine, and just when you think you're caught up he drops 5 extra books on you! Still, beats waiting for G.R.R.M. to finish a book.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected], [email protected]
