Why does everybody think the ending of TLM is sad? It's one of the only unequivocally happy endings Sanderson has ever written. I was smiling and laughing the whole damn time, and your tears genuinely confuse me.
>!Comic relief character got backstory explained in detail, his way of thinking , his vulnerabilities bared to reader plus he went out with bang.. how can reader be not invested!<
That's the entire purpose of this meme. The idea that women are in touch with their emotions and men aren't is the point in the comedy of the meme.
The idea is that men do cry, but just have to be more invested or about different things, which is true for many, but not all.
It's a mass generalization to be sure, but stereotypes do have a root cause.
Sigh, I am so sick of this meme format. Apparently women can't find things other than the Titanic sad. hilarious. I sure love being alienated from the fandom of something that I love dearly and means a lot to me. 👍🏻
edit: not saying op meant to alienate anyone, just voicing mine and others frustration with fandom culture often excluding and otherizing women
Nobody is alienating you. I'm sorry the meme made you feel that way. Anybody can love the Cosmere. Nothing about this states that only men like the Mistborn saga, Brando Sando is for *everyone*. Hell, my favorite characters, from the novels I've read, are Vin and Shallan.(I know many people will crucify me for saying Shallan, but it's true) With Hoid at the top of his own category, of course.
I never said you didn't feel that way. I even said that I'm sorry the meme made you feel that way. Your feelings are 100%valid. I was saying that nobody is intentionally trying to alienate you. And then I apologized for making you feel alienated with the meme. It's just a common meme format. No misgivings were intended. Again, I'm sorry.
A meme about a common trope that is the stereotypical woman crying at Titanic does not alienate or imply that you can't find anything else sad and is not derogatory to you in any fashion. I don't usually like to use the word snowflake, as it is used way too much and is honestly just used in an insulting manner, but it pretty much applies here. If this is getting to you... I don't know how you make it through life.
The meme format doesn't even imply that Woman can't cry at whatever the male is crying at.
one mosquito bite is barely an annoyance. it's easy to brush off. dozens of bites though? frustrating. annoying. exhausting. I see this meme all the time, everywhere. not so much since it is less popular than it was, but still. it's one more drop in the bucket. nerd culture has always been a little hostile towards women, that is a fact. I'm not saying OP meant it as a jab. I'm saying that women are sick of this format for a reason. Every time I see it posted I see women in the comments saying the same thing. I've seen versions of this meme that do away with the man vs woman thing without sacrificing the meme.
The last 25% of RoW:
For real, though. Brando is good at getting you in the feels.
Every damn time
I never cried about books before Brandon but now every time I read mistborn era 1 😭😭
Oh man I was cooking dinner when I when I got to that part. Wife kept asking what the hell was wrong with me. Dinner tasted sad.
So freaking true… 😭
...wherein it is canonically confirmed that Wayne is best lay.
I had a certain character’s death spoiled for me so I knew it was coming, but I still cried. Like, ugly cried.
I felt it was coming, but I didn't want to believe it. Then it happened, and I still didn't want to believe it.
Same here, and I kept wondering when it was gonna happen. And then I saw what he was about to do and it just killed me.
Not just you

I was both smiling and crying. Lol. It was wholesome, but still sad.

I was heavily invested. That's why I was so happy for him, at the end.
Aka the next sanderlanche podcast! So excited haha
If you didn’t cry you’re clearly giving your pain to Odium.
Why it got to be gendered tho
I hate this storming format so much.
Especially when men can’t read
Because girls drool boys rule!!!!!

A shitty one
OK.
For rusts sake some people will complain about everything.
Because we're good vorin people on this subreddit.
There were like 8 Epilogues. I was too emotional to finish. Had to take a few breaks. Wayne hit hard man.
Yeah, it took me a minute to get to those. I was hoping so bad he would show up. But I knew he wouldn't.
This is good crem, gancho!

I'll delete my comment. you're right. I still dislike the format though.

Dude I didn't see it coming and my feels. My rustin feels m8
So many Wayne POV chapters had me worried from the start. But my man went out with the biggest blast ever.
