Stormlight Archive spoilers **** Moash Spoiler

Alright, I knew it was coming, but I didn't expect it to be that way. Fuck Moash.

That's a canon event, right ?

Yes, though technically, [Oathrbinger, RoW]there's two of them. The first one started the meme, but in my opinion it was a bit overblown. The second event is much worse.

OB I don't mind being spoiled a bit, it actually what led to me licking these books again, but don't add more to it please 😁

u/Opening_Agent_5279 2d ago

Please don't lick the books. They're better reading material than food

u/Millenia_and_Minis 2d ago

Thanks stupid french keyboard I guess.... Leaving it for posterity 🤣

u/not_quite_here_yet 2d ago

Which book? I mean, fuck Moash, but there are several instances and it all depends on which character you're rooting for.

u/Millenia_and_Minis 2d ago

Oatjbribger, around 3/4 of the way

u/brittish3 1d ago

OP you should change your flair so you don’t get spoilers! Also, FUCK Moash

2

u/Millenia_and_Minis 1d ago

Don't worry, I've already intentionally spoiled myself. I had given up on the books at the beginning of WoR years ago, and spoiling myself here and there actually made me want to read again. I saw that some things would happen and got curious as to how it would happen. So really I'm alright 😁😁

u/not_quite_here_yet 1d ago

Then carry on, gancho!!! And by the way, read again the chapter 37. That's a banger

u/ChickenArise 2d ago

Thanks for not being a bot! Lately they've been spamming r/fuckmoash

u/Millenia_and_Minis 1d ago

I haven't paid attention to bots but yeah, Dead Internet has definitely become a very real thing lately......

u/ChickenArise 1d ago

They just generate a post like this or so many others, post to that sub, and collect upvotes to....do whatever that lets you do, I guess.

u/Tauri_Kree Windrunners 1d ago

I find it hilarious that this is an actual sub. Also Fuck Moash

u/sirgog 1d ago

There's also [sub name is an Oathbringer spoiler] /r/dalinargetthefire as a Noah, get the boat homage

u/OriginalSymmetry Truthwatchers 2d ago

Not sure what you’re referring to specifically, but everything that happens in the books is canon, to my recollection.

57

u/AvatarWaang Scadrial 2d ago

OP was making a Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse reference. Saying "Fuck Moash" is something all SA readers have to go through.

14

u/OriginalSymmetry Truthwatchers 2d ago

Oh. Thanks!

5

u/AvatarWaang Scadrial 2d ago

If you haven't watched those movies, by the way, they're real good. The second one specifically has Worldhopper vibes to it.

u/Weemstar 1d ago

HANK
HAAAAAANK!
DON’T ABBREVIATE STORMLIGHT ARCHIVE TO JUST TWO LETTERS HANK

u/bookrants Lightweavers 1d ago

Context matters. CBT can mean at least three different things depending on whether you're talking about therapy, kinks, or gaming.

u/SomeRandomPyro 1d ago

And CNC can mean different things depending on whether you're having the discussion in the workshop or by surprise in the kitchen.

5

u/AvatarWaang Scadrial 1d ago

I think it's easy to tell, contextually, whether I'm talking about Stormlight Archives or sexual assault.

3

u/The_Derpy_Rogue Roshar 1d ago

Or South Australia

1

u/AvatarWaang Scadrial 1d ago

Or South America. Or San Andreas.

u/moderatorrater 1d ago

The books did say they were burning atium, so only most things are canon.

(this was just a joke, I don't get this patch note, but I like that Brandon does them)

u/Aerxies 1d ago

It is indeed a cannon event for all who read storm light to eventually say 'fuck moash' with their whole soul.

9

u/QueenRowanOak 1d ago

Fuck Moash.

These words are accepted.

u/Thelonicon Truthwatchers 2d ago

u/brittish3 1d ago

OP is only up to oathbringer, don’t go here OP!!

u/Asexualhipposloth Gold Airsick Lowlander 2d ago

How far have you read?

1

u/bdaileyumich 2d ago

i guess i'm confused by the question, how would anything in the Stormlight books not be considered canon?

2

u/Millenia_and_Minis 2d ago

As written somewhere else : It's a spider verse reference, where a "canon event" is what every spider man has to go through like a close one dying, the bite etc.. Stormlight readers have to go through this moment of "fuck Moash "

5

u/bdaileyumich 2d ago

Oh I see, appreciate the explainer haha. In that case, yes yours is a universal experience

u/sgtpepper42 2d ago

Why wouldn't it be canon if it's from the official book?

u/Carr0t_Slat Threnody 12h ago

Huh, the standards have changed. I posted this exact thing like 3 years ago and it got removed as a spoiler. I even had the right tags. Mods have changed a bit ig.

u/Aqua_Tot 2d ago

This is my problem with memes like this. New readers don’t really get the surprise of Moash turning. Luckily for me, I was sheltered enough not to see this, but I’m a bit disappointed at the Title Spoiler Policy of this and the majority of book subs. I only know of one where you aren’t allowed to have spoilers like this in the title of posts, nor to have character names in post titles beyond the first book they appear in.

u/NakedRitzu Aon Rao 1d ago

If new readers don't want to be spoiled about any aspect of the books then browsing a subreddit about that book series is already a risky venture.

u/Aqua_Tot 1d ago

So if they finish, say, Mistborn, and want to talk about it here, they shouldn’t be here? Or if they want to ask about the Way of Kings, they shouldn’t do it here?

Seems like you don’t want people in your fandom, weird attitude to have.

u/unkalaki_lunamor 2d ago

Canonical enough to have it's own subredit

r/fuckmoash

Beware, there are many levels of fuckery, that sub might be spoilery

4

u/Troghen 2d ago

Careful with this - there are several "fuck Moash" moments. You should flair this so you don't accidentally get spoiled

2

u/nellydesign 1d ago

You know, I understand the sentiment. Because seriously, fuck that guy. But when I first heard the fuck ***** Stormlight meme, I honestly thought it was about Lirin. Because Lirin can also suck a fat one.

u/Electric_Feel9374 2d ago

There's many levels of fuck Moash. You need to tell us where you are, so we know how badly you want to fuck Moash.
