Are You an Ent or an Entwife? Are there no other choices?
Why did Sauron need ring? Him not need ring! Him need grammar lesson! The Video Games From the yet-to-be-published Leisure Activities of the Eldar. What happened to the Dragons??? See"What happened to the horses?" Did Maedhros kill Laughter? No, but I hear Macbeth murdered Sleep.

Banning Tolkien, some questions –Let's get cracking! That's what this forum's all about, right?
LOTR banned!!!!! –Hooray! We did it!!!!! How do you pronounce... –"S", of course! I thought everyone knew that! Where's Eowyn? –Wasn't she just here? I don't believe this –Me neither! Meat eaters and vegetarians –The battle of the ages! Shifty eyes –Nonsense! I have nothing to hide. Nothing, I tell you! Characters that are often overlooked. –Oh, you mean the hobbits, right? (Yeah, yeah, that was lame.) We Nine Kings of....where? –Orient are! Hi! (and Fell Beasts...) –Hey, don't single the poor Fell Beasts out like that! It'll make them self-conscious. What does it mean to be a true fan? –Agreeing with me, obviously. What if the Dark Lord had children?? –Well, according to fan-fiction, he's had several hundred, at least. whos Mary-sue? –see above. Annoying experts –Who, me?

Unfinnished Tales –No Finns allowed!
The Timless Void –No Tims, either! Dragons - Like worms? –Chop them in half, and they keep wriggling. Sauron and his Ring –rejected title. Is Frodo the 'King ' who returns? –Of course! Who did you think it was, Aragorn? I mean, duh! Can you bite off someones finger with 6 teeth? –Try it and see! I was thinking –Good start. Was Saruman evil.. –Whatever gave you that idea? Was Sauron Evil? –Just misunderstood. Merry & Pippin - Good Or Bad –EEEVILLL! The horrible little fiends! Where do men go? –See that door with the little man on it...? who is tolkien in fact? –Tolkien who? Never heard of him. Tolkien is Not Yeats –Ah, there's your answer: some guy who isn't Yeats. What's beyond the sea? –Land. Who exactly is Feanor and Celebrimbor? –I'm not sure, but I suspect it involves a nasty transporter accident. Like mother, like daughter? Ungoliant and Shelob –Who'd have thought being a giant spider would run in the family? Dwarf Women: The Mystery –Moria's most popular striptease! Was Tolkien Green? –Sure, you just can't tell from the photographs. I'm curious... Did Legolas have a wife. –What? Oh, no reason, I just thought he might be... lonely... age of legolas –is finally drawing to a close, thank Eru! Are there any books that deal with the story of the one ring? –Nah. Why is enigma pretty much tied with maia and earth spirit... *head explodes*

For girls and ladies only! - stop being sexist.
I just don't understand. - neither do I. Hin or Chin - Gin. So what kind of fan were you? - one that actually works. The Lord of the Grins. - Not that hard a job, after you've worked as the Mouth of Sauron. Apples... - to apples as hobbits are to hobbits. Sinking Beleriand - drown it, drown it! Barrow-Down Dreams - to capture and kill all living creatures that infest Middle Earth Ever been confused? - er...like now? Tell me about the Valar - what's the point - you won't believe me anyways! Sauron Faramir Argonath Extra Characters - meaning?... Name Towers Would you have been suspicious? - yes Speaking of books..... - what were you speaking about the whole time, then?! Yes, Tolkien is Wonderful, but... - no buts. Ways TTT Could've been worse - let's be optimistic The Seven Deadly Sins in Middle-earth - Killing, stealing, renouncing Eru, disrespecting parents, laughing at a live dragon, getting on the wrong side of Turin, and doubting/underestimating the power of a woman (particularly applied to Nazgul).

I see Werewolf has you in its furry grasp, G55!
Well, here's a few more: Guest from Middle Earth –That's his story, anyway... But I DO have a degree in Tolkienology!!! –And I have a bridge I can sell you really cheaply... Sauron....who is sauron –*sigh* Maybe it's time the title was changed to 'Lord of Not Paying Attention'. I Will Make Personal Pics For Anyone Who Wants Them –And Even More Personal Pics For Anyone Who Doesn't Want Them... Mwa-ha-ha! Rabbits in Middle Earth? –Elves I can believe, but RABBITS! Everyone knows they're just a myth!
