Only anxious because we females are stereotypically insane.

Care to join the ranks of craziness? Although if you did, we are certainly in the right forum for it.

Don't I wish I was a Cheeky Brit... then I could be... well... cheeky. I could always "fix" my answers...

Gil-Galad · 08-30-2004, 03:25 PM

Though i'm not a female, i must agree with your statement, but i to was a Cheeky Brit in the quiz...cheerio what what

Elennar Starfire · 08-30-2004, 08:38 PM

*cuddles Eomer's fluffy ego*

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 09-01-2004, 09:08 AM

....it continues.

If there was a 'crazy' category then I think a lot of us would be finding that one. Sanity is a growing problem in this day and age. We must help those afflicted with it by helping them to lose their sanity......

Or, I already went crazy. It did me no end of good.

Esgallhugwen · 09-06-2004, 06:52 PM

Yes you've already gone crazy *scratches Eomer's ego behind the ear* but than again being dead and all can do that to a person.

Encaitare · 09-06-2004, 07:57 PM

Whoa, I'm an Uber-Dork Barrowdowner. The strange thing is, I have used the phrase "Uber-Dork" to refer to myself many times in the past. How creepy.

Conincedence? i think not... we must do more studies on this! quickly to the bat cave!

Elennar Starfire · 09-07-2004, 08:29 PM

I think Eomer's ego is purring...

Esgallhugwen · 09-08-2004, 05:27 PM

*looks down at Eomer's Ego* Hmmm so it is, its very loud

Encaitare welcome to the clan of the Uber- Dorks

Saraphim · 09-08-2004, 09:29 PM

So much attention to Eomer's ego! I'm surprised he hasn't changed from a Cheeky-Brit to a Pretentious Prat.

As for me, I've ordered a bumper sticker that says "Uber-Geek" from a site that specializes in the uber-dorky. My car, or "Shadowfax the Nerdmobile" (as my friends have begun to call it) is beginning to turn into quite the advertisement for all of geekdom.

Welcome to the loony room Encaitare! As Eomer said, most of us here would belong in the crazy catagory, so look sharp if you want to keep your sanity in any way.

I myself went mad a while ago, just for a change of pace. I traveled to Africa and took up cruelty to animals, but just as a hobby, you know.

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 09-10-2004, 07:23 AM

Do giraffes mean anything to you Saraphim? Rather oddly shaped animals....

And I could never be pretentious. As a matter of fact, I'm getting less and less cheeky and more and more worried.

*sighs*

Thanks, heh heh. *shrugs* Sanity's overrated.

Bekah · 09-22-2004, 11:40 PM

Most of this page is devoted to stroking Eomer's ego (and scratching it behind the ear) or the mild worry about the sanity or lack thereof of those who were making Eomer's ego purr. Also to the celebration of insanity in general. But not much on topic, though there were a few references.

Even after Lush came and rebuked you guys, too, for letting her thread deteriorate into something the BW might delete. And some of us said sorry and good point, Lush, thanks, but we still only fawned over Eomer. I'm sure he deserves it, being Scottish and all, but I'm sorry if I started it all off saying that I happen to fall for Scottish accents. Which is true, but has nothing to do with the thread. Moreover Eomer is more than an accent.

So - back to Uber-Dorkiness. Or pratting around pretensiously. Or just being good Christian Downers or whatever you get.

And thank you to those who did stay more or less on topic.

If we have nothing to add, I suggest we let this thread lie down for a week or two - which it has been doing - and them bumping it up in case new downers have something to say. And deleting the bumping up post, of course, otherwise it'll just hang around taking up bandwidth space which the BW and mods and other kind people pay for so sensible people can enjoy the Downs.

Cheers, and God Bless,

~ Elentari II

P.S. I can't remember what I got on the test - but I'm a good Christian Barrowdowner.

P.P.S. Excuse me, Elennar, but posts are different from spoken words in that pointless ones actually cost the nice people who pay for all this. So while the sentiment is admirable, in all practicality it's actually better if you do take back the stuff you wish you hadn't written by deleting the post in question.

Elennar Starfire · 09-24-2004, 07:13 PM

Bekah is right...posts deleted, though somewhat belatedly.
I still recommend not posting while high on paint fumes, however. The results can be embarrassing.

Neferchoirwen · 09-27-2004, 12:31 PM

Lush's test congratulates me for being a Cheeky Brit Downer. I admit that I do have fortunate moments and often find myself in VIP moments, I admit that I was also a high school outsider, and a Christian trying to be good as best as I can. Proud to say, though, that I have out grown my gosh-the-elves-are-so-amazing fan phase.

Cheers

A Cheeky British Barrowdowner!

Must have been the references to pubs and rain... and cheek?
Very clever.

Tigerlily Gamgee · 04-24-2005, 09:34 PM

I would've never thought I'd be getting that answer! Look out people! Haha

Fun test, Lush

Lush · 05-02-2005, 09:21 PM

I've checked up on the test, and it seems as though the Russian server is being a bad boy. Perhaps it was owned by Khodorkovsky, or something... *hardy har har*

Hmm, anyway. If it keeps on being weird, I might end up moving the test somewhere more reliable and updating the link.

I'm glad that people still seem to enjoy it from time to time.

wilwarin538 · 05-10-2005, 02:12 PM

The updating the link idea sounds great Lush, it did't work for me.

Anguirel · 05-10-2005, 02:27 PM

Thank-you very much Lush that was very enjoyable.

Now start tiptoeing.

Imladris · 05-23-2005, 10:26 PM

I decided to take the quiz again and got:

Quote:

Congratulations! You are- A Cheeky British Barrowdowner!
You're better than everyone on the entire forum, and you know it. I hate you. Will you marry me?

I suppose I got tired of the tiptoeing (or lack thereof

) and abdicated my throne...

VanimaEdhel · 06-12-2005, 02:03 PM

Umm...Lush? I got that I'm a "Good Christian Barrow-Downer." 1. I'm not Christian and 2. I have the dirtiest mind of anyone I know...and that's saying something. I don't know what happened, there...I answered everything honestly. I mean I did say it was raining because I was wearing white, but that's because every time it rains, I am either in a white sundress or a white t-shirt or something along those lines. Ah, oh well...may as well wander out and find a cross to buy.

Lush · 06-27-2005, 01:26 PM

The quiz has been updated and moved!

Anyone who's been getting weird results lately should try it again. Now it may actually work!

Take care and enjoy!!!

You're impossibly witty, and can certainly hold your drink. You've probably never even spilled it on your keyboard.

Remember, Britain is not neccessarily a place of residence, it can also be a state of mind. Oh, and will you marry me?

I'm not sure how I got this... I mean, I am British, I'm just underage for alcohol. I don't even think I ticked any of the alcohol answers...

I am terribly witty though.

Re: the marriage. Could you possibly wait three years? I'll get back to you when I come of age, though I'm worried about the distance...

A pretentious prat... you know... the downside to being perfect is that everybody automatically assumes you are pretentious.

And I'm not that full of myself... I just pretend to be. And it's tp's fault... he encouraged me.

You probably kick serious butt in the quiz section of the Barrowdowns online forum. Either that, or you participate in some amazing RPGs. Or both.

But hey, it seems almost to be a compliment so who am I to argue

It seems that part of the attraction of Tolkien for you is that it's all good, clean fun with some serious Biblical thematics.
