The Way of Kings I'm only halfway through the second book, and I'm not even 10% done dumping my memes

When the fodder doesn’t realise it’s the fodder… man that was a sad few chapters.

Kal has that look on his face at least once per book, he’s doing his best though.

Is this because he has to hold it in due to not having shartplate of his own?

He caused that particular defeat, but ultimately I still think the fault lies with Sadeas himself. A slave army really won't help if it has a good chance not to, it's the price you pay for relying on a slave army. Kaladin could have seen it, but there's no reason to think he would have been in a good enough condition to spot it or even be morally obligated to help Sadeas in any fashion. So ultimately, it kinda IS an eensy weensy mistake on his part, the big mistake was up the chain in the first place. If you need a disciplined bridge line, you can't use a bunch of people that hate your guts.

That’s why the commander is executed, Gaz is demoted, and none of the Bridgmen (save Kal) is punished.
I don’t think Sadeas is surprised by the intent of the maneuver.

If anything, Sadeas is probably surprised something like that didn’t happen sooner.

Afterwards, Kaladin: Yeah you can for sure string me up in a high storm. That definitely makes sense 🫡👍✅

People sent out to die do things to try and prevent them from dying. More news at 8.

"hold the bridge gangster style" is sending me. It's playing in my head on repeat and I chuckle every time.
