You know you're hooked (to thePlenty) when...you start each thought with "these beings". You're having an affect on me, 'thul

'thul likes writing in strange ways. On another forum they make people occasionally think that they have multiple personality disorder. They're pretty sure that they dont, but who knows?

.....you see someone in the supermarket and you think OMG that is EXACTLY how I pictured the Fool's hair to be!!!!

...you can't even get through the beginning of a movie without noticing RotE links!!
In this case it was the mushy 'You've Got Mail' and the opening credits showed up as 'Written by such and such Ephron' and 'Directed by such and such Ephron', and then in one of the opening scenes a van pulled up outside an apartment building with Tom Cat written on its side!!!).
I could put SO MANY other instances in this thread but I always forget them by the time I get back to the keyboard...I must remember my notebook!!!

...you're over an hour away from a doctor, hemmed in by a dirt road that's received seven inches of rain in the space of a week, AND the proud owner of nearly two dozen spider bites, and all you can think when your muscles start throbbing and seizing up is "Is this a little of the fear and lack of control that Fitz experienced when he was poisoned?"!!
RE: SPOILERS ALL BOOKS You know you're hooked when... - Nuytsia - Oct-07-2010
Two dozen spider bites!!!!!!!!!!! Do tell ........???????
Also, I just recently re-read that bit where Fitz is poisoned by Kettricken, love how he just bluffs his way out of the room, dum de dum dah I'll just walk out casually, about 3 minutes away from the loss of the use of all limbs and the rest of his body ....

You know you're obsessed when the first thing you think of when you see the profile of a relatively new celebrity is "OH MY GOSH he looks EXACTLY like John Howe's drawing of the Fool!!!!"
And your friend knows you're obsessed when you crop both pictures, take a screenshot, and send it to her with no explanation other than "Is it just me, or...?" And she knows exactly what you're talking about and sees your point because you've ranted about both people so often.
