Sauron in his off hours
 
I think a lot of readers have a very shallow view of Sauron, and, in the effort to further enlighten this character, I've put a list of things the Dark Lord did in his off hours. Enjoy!

-He had taken up gardening as a hobby, though he definitely lacked a green thumb.

-Few people realize that it was actually the Dark Lord who first invented the monocle.

-Of course, he had a flair for jewelry(I mean, c'mon, the man had more rings than Liberace!)

-His rap is legendary. He was famous for ending every song with something about himself and Mordor.

-Finally, he loved to read, but he could never see what everyone was talking about in those "magic eye" books, and he gave up after three books of trying to find the title character in those "Where's Frodo" books.

Hahahah also you forget that he strove for world peace under a united rule. He also decreased the surplus population.

Nuinrog 01-24-2002 08:36 PM

LOL good one Dáin!

I think he wrote quite a few books. "Dude, Where's My Ring" I think could be one of them!

Hours spent organizing his playlists and uploading music to his iPod

Carannillion 01-28-2002 04:59 PM

Family man. Working on the other side of the world, of course, so he is one Age on duty, one Age off duty; at home, raising kids, enjoying gardening and watching the stars with his 'lovely' wife, Saurona.

Fell Shade 01-28-2002 05:24 PM

Saurona!! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sindalómiel 01-28-2002 07:13 PM

Lol, the Scout Leader one's great.

Dáin Ironfoot 01-28-2002 08:18 PM

I think he was really good on the inside, but had to live up to his reputation.....somebody has to be the dark lord.

Lindolirian 01-29-2002 05:48 PM

He was in the Jewelry buisness. He gave cute lil' Ring-pops to all of his friends and he made one for himself but forgot the candy part. All of his friends got mad and for some odd reason tried to kill poor lil' Sauron and throw his ring-pop without the pop into the camp fire. They succeeded and our hero of this sad trgedy went home crying that his friends didn't like him any more.

Bruce MacCulloch 01-30-2002 02:27 PM

He spent all of his off hours hanging out in websites and taking part in discussions like this one. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Lindolirian 01-30-2002 08:32 PM

Sauron is Santa Clause!!!! just think about it. he lives in a land where nobody goes (Mordor/NorthPole) he is surrounded by ruined elves (orcs) i mean what elf would want to sit around makin toys all day for some bratty kid??? he was rightfully called the Lord of Gifts in the Second Age and he has nine flying friends which for some reason he calls Nazgul but in our world they are known as reindeer. Now at the end of the Second age all the elves and men watched "How the Grich Stole Christmas" and decided to be grinchy lil elves and stop happy sauron from giving gifts to us on Christmas. i know this sounds far fetched but i know it to be true. Last Christmas i was sneakin around in hopes of a glimpse of Santa Clause. I saw him. Good jolly ole Sauron was carefully layin the presents under the tree. He was about to eat the Milk and Cookies but Aragorn suddenly came flying down the stairs yelling "Elendil!!!" and thrashing his sword wildy about in the direction of St. Nick-Sauron...(hehehe) the poor guy barely scrambled up the chimney before the Grinch-like swords man got him. Have pity on poor sauron and i hope you all know that i'm kidding..... hehehehehe hohoho [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

lomion 01-30-2002 09:36 PM

Until recently he was C.E.O. of Enron.

JesseCuster 01-30-2002 09:57 PM

I think that Sauron would spend a lot of time on the phone with his designer and personal shopper. After all, this guy is eager to get his ring back so he can have a body again, and once he is, he's going to be one SHARP DRESSED MAN.

"No, I don't think so, on the horns. Lose the horns. I'm thinking, spikes. Like the top of Barad-Dur? Yes, everyone would know who I was, then. Not sure about the whole, cloak angle. Spikes and cloaks don't mix. Hold on, got another call coming in.

Hello. Is this Saruman? Look, I told you I wasn't goign to talk to you until you did something about those nails.

Hi. Sorry about that. Let's talk about this lapel thing....you sure that big ones are coming back in? Wouldn't do to be the Dark Lord that everyone snickers at....'

Vitesse 02-01-2002 12:49 PM

Don't forget that he used to play long games of Ping-Pong with the Witch King, who always lost on purpose, during meetings on forming committees with the rest of the Nazgul.

Birdland 02-01-2002 01:14 PM

"What if Sauron was one of us?
Just a slob, like one of us?
Just a stranger on the bus,
Tryin' to make his way home...

Nobody on the Palantir,
'Cept maybe Saruman in tears!"

(Apologies to Joan Osborne.)

Eowyn of Ithilien 02-01-2002 03:54 PM

lmao yes yes

SlinkerStinker 02-03-2002 03:48 AM

HAHAHA you guys are too funny

It looks like the mystery of who puts all the razorblades in Halloween candy has been solved.

With all the slaves in Mordor, I always pictured Sauron as a Colonial Plantation owner in his free time. Chasing after that wily Brer Rabbit.

Fenrir 02-03-2002 04:08 AM

Actually Sauron, the Dark Lord of Mordor does exist and is working in a cinema complex not far from our house (in England). He had his name changed by deed pole. Seriously, it was in the paper.

Lush 02-04-2002 09:32 PM

I lean toward the idea that Sauron just watches too much "Pinky and the Brain" in his off-hours. And they say TV cannot influence our actions...Poor guy is clearly brainwashed by The Cartoon Network. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Maltaharma 09-07-2002 11:39 AM

Of course you all realize Sauron's true passion is his own line of jewelry, Evil Jewelry Inc. Though not many know it, besides a one ring there was also a one bracelet, one anklet, one necklace, and one tongue stud...however, these were all lost in the Balrog's credenza many years ago. So, sadly enough, Sauron's stock crashed, etc etc we all know that sad story, and if you don't just consider that Sauron rhymes with Enron.

Eärendil 09-07-2002 12:05 PM

I am sure of that he works as a priest half-time in my home town. I had him when I got confirmed (but no, I am not religious), and he really was a little angel....from hell.
That IS Sauron, I tell you! Screwing people´s life up everywhere,and enjoying it.
Wouldn´t surprise me if he sometimes works as a teacher as well...

Lothiriel Silmarien 09-07-2002 02:47 PM

When Sauron needs a little extra money in his pocket, he's a limo driver. Other than that, he also works at the local movie theater. He's that guy who takes your ticket and gives you back the stub.

akhtene 09-08-2002 05:09 PM

He definitely works on TV - sort of Palantir Broadcasting Network. Hardly a viewer stays sane.
Or in advertising "Just come to Mordor and you'll never go anywhere else.

my emotions after a weekend by the TV

Rosseiliantiel 09-08-2002 05:15 PM

...or selling eyedrops (I mean, he has an Unblinking Eye, so it must get pretty dried out)

George Bush is really Sauron in disguise!!!! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

gollum*elf*pup 09-09-2002 02:36 PM

He probably plays bingo with the old people at the bingo hall. Then he works the night shift at McDonald's.
