Try The Barrowdowns you'll like it.
 
I found this site that I thought would be fun to mess around with here. It creates slogans for you.

You could use your 'Downs name, personal title, whatever (but let's make sure we keep this Middle-earth/Tolkien related). Also, let's be honest and use the first slogan you get.

So, my slogan is:

"Who would you have a Boromir88 with?" :D

Edit: As for the thread title, "Try the Barrowdowns you'll like it" that was the slogan that I got for The Barrowdowns, but if you click on the link, I think you will all see a different one. ;)

Bêthberry 02-01-2008 09:56 PM

Bet you can't have just one!
 
Solutions for a small Bethberry.

It's Rohan time!

Have you had your REB today?

Have a break. Have a canonicity.

I think, therefore, Cryptic Aura. OR There's always room for Cryptic Aura.

:D

Nice find, Boro88

Folwren 02-01-2008 10:04 PM

My favorite was definitely "Happiness is a Folwren cigar." :smokin:

EDIT: Only because...you all realize, I hope...because it was so wacko and ... not me.

mormegil 02-01-2008 10:07 PM

"Go on, get you Mormegil out!"

or

"Get serious, get Maundering Mage"

or

"A lot happens after Tolkien"

McCaber 02-01-2008 11:54 PM

"You deserve a McCaber today"

"A Smaug is forever"

"Let's face the music and Mordor"

Legate of Amon Lanc 02-02-2008 03:40 AM

That's funny, Boro! Right when I clicked it this popped up at me:

If you can't beat the Barrowdowns, join the Barrowdowns!

A good piece of advice, isn't it? :D

And

Nothing works better than a Legate of Amon Lanc.

Wow, this seems really like a nice page. Definitely intelligent and worth following :)

With A Name Like A Voice That Gainsayeth, It Has To Be Good.

I like these :p

Lalaith 02-02-2008 04:26 AM

Loving this generator...

"Strong and Beautiful, Just Like Lalaith"

Aganzir 02-02-2008 04:44 AM

The Loudest Noise Comes From The Electric Aganzir.
Tonight, Let It Be Agan.
Savour the Flavour of Dwarf.


This machine is nasty to me. But quite right about the Downs...

With A Name Like The Barrow-Downs, It Has To Be Good.
If You Really Want To Know, Look In The The Barrow-Downs.

Estelyn Telcontar 02-02-2008 04:50 AM

This is fun - thanks for sharing, Boro!

"Come See the Softer Side of The Barrowdowns." was the slogan that greeted me upon first click.

"Go On, Get Your Skwerlz Out." - well, if that isn't good advice for me! :D Additionally: "Bring Out The Skwerl."

"What Can Princess Of Skwerlz Do For You?" :Merisu:

"Nothing Acts Faster Than Estelyn Telcontar." :eek:

"Where Do You Want Entish Bow To Go Today?" or: "Leggo my Entish Bow!"

Thinlómien 02-02-2008 05:38 AM

Oh, what an amusing thread. I must say I laughed aloud when I saw "The Loudest Noise Comes From The Electric Aganzir" and "Savour the Flavour of Dwarf". :D


Now, what about the following?

Get the Werewolf habit.

Perfect.

But I'd Rather Have a Bowl of Paper Telephone.
So would I.

That was appropriate...

These WW ones are just great! All too appropriate!

But this one's the best:

Nogrod 02-02-2008 08:43 AM

Hilarious!

I almost dropped from my chair when this emerged from the generator!

It Takes A Tough Man To Make A Tender Nogrod.

And I might consider changing my signature into this at least when playing werewolf:

Watch Out, There's a Nogrod About.

I also liked this one:

When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Flame Of The Ainulindalë.
whatever one thinks it means... :)

But I was somewhat amused about the general tone of the slogans...
- Nothin' Says Lovin' Like Nogrod from the Oven.
- You Can Really Taste The Nogrod!
- Sweet as the Moment When the Flame Of The Ainulindalë Went "Pop"
- Devon Knows How They Make Flame Of The Ainulindalë So Creamy.
- They Drink Flame Of The Ainulindalë In The Congo.

So most of the things relating to me are about eating or drinking? How accurate! :rolleyes:

Better, but still doesn't fit me....

Boromir88 02-02-2008 10:08 AM

Thank you, I'm glad people are having as much fun as I am. I agree with Legate, the slogans for The Barrowdowns and WW are so appropriate. :p

Hmm...I was greeted with another appropriate one about The Barrowdowns:

There aint no party like The Barrowdowns party

"Snap! Crackle! Gandalf!"

I'm trying to figure out what this one means...

"The Denethor of a new generation"...anyone?

And I'm definitely going to have to disagree with this one:

"Smart. Beautiful. Shelob." :eek:

Rikae 02-02-2008 10:19 AM

Bwahaha! The one that greeted me was:
"Come to Life, Come to The Barrowdowns"

How inappropriate!

For me:
"Kills all known Rikae - dead"
Well, if my role is known, I suppose I can expect to be killed.

"Unzip a Rikae"
No comment.

"It needn't be hell with Rikae"
Then again,it probably will be.

"Splash Rikae all over"
And I thought my death narrations were gruesome...

"Kids will do anything for Rikae"
Pfft.

Edit:
"Strong Enough for a Man, Made for a Mellifluous Maia."

Mithalwen 02-02-2008 10:20 AM

Wow! I could have had a Pilgrim Soul!
 
This is not your father's Mithalwen I should jolly well hope not - I am my own person.
The coolest Mithalwen on Ice They obviously didn't see me failing to Ice Skate last week
Kills all known Mithalwen dead - Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek
Cleans right round the Mithalwen - now I am an euphemism..
It's different in a Mithalwen - How very dare you...
Cleans your floor without Mithalwen Just as well - Mithalwen hates cleaning floors...
Hand built by Mithalwen Not a great recommendation...
It it live or is it Mithalwen? We're all dead here ... and I perk up after a dose of caffeine
Come to Life, Come to Mithalwen. Getting better ...and these are sig-worthy

Wouldn't you rather be Mithalwen?
All Mithalwen, all the time.

Boromir, this is addictive!:D

Nogrod 02-02-2008 10:24 AM

There seems to be some handy helpers around there as well... but on which side?
You Press the Silmarillion, We Do the Rest.

Gandalf at the jewellery:
Pardon Me, Do You Have Any Grey Silmarillion?

Or try the following line to charm the one you've a crush on and you'll never get to hang around others than Tolkien lovers...
I Like the Silmarillion in You.

Legate of Amon Lanc 02-02-2008 10:35 AM

This time, I was greeted by:

Nobody does it like The Barrowdowns.

And inspired by Nogrod's effort, I tried...

The Hobbit stays sharp till the bottom of the glass.

And since I haven't seen The Might around here, sorry Miggy, but I could not resist putting your name in:

Gonna be a while? Grab a Miggy.*
Sounds like a slogan that should hover over the Quiz Room when one is there alone and no one seems to be posting :D

Another one:

Double the pleasure, double the Chat Skwerl!

Not sure whether one isn't sufficient already...

EDIT: Now reading it, I recall there used to go (around here at least) a commercial on the snack named "Twiggy"... hm... maybe...

Boromir88 02-02-2008 10:39 AM

I'm not quite sure about the theological implications of this.
God made Werewolf.

But they seem to suggest nice new adjectives though. What would you describe as Werewolfrific?

Dueling Wizards - Just do it.
You can't stop Dueling Wizards.
It looks like a deal then? :)
