What shall we do with the drunken guardian...
We all know the scene in the Hobbit when the elven guardians of the imprisoned dwarfs are drinking too much and therefore off guard.
And we all know that Tolkien actually wrote The Hobbit for his children. I think that this goes a little bit too far, but could it be that Tolkien wanted to show his kids that drinking alcohol is dangerous not only to the body, but also for your head (if you take my meaning)? Comments appreciated.
