I would hardly call my comment slashing, Losthuniel. If a thread gets too dirty, a moderator is sure to swoop down from the sky and that's it for that thread. I simply want to point that out before it happens.
(Thranduil): "You have reached the palace of Thranduil, Elven-King of Mirkwood. If you are a Dwarf tresspassing within the borders of my woodland realm, press one and you will be imprisoned shortly. If you are a Hobbit who would like to give me a priceless treasure to use as a...erm...bargaining tool, press two. If this is the Mayor of Lake-town, press three, but just so you know I don't want to hear another complaint about what you find in my barrels. If this is Legolas, press four, and tell me what you're doing! I know I got kind of mad when you let Gollum escape and we exchanged words before you left for Imladris, but that's no reason to be pouty and not come back home! And I hope you haven't talked to any strange Dwarves (redundant, I know) because you know that would make me very mad."
(Balrog of Moria): "There better be a very good reason for this call, because I do not like being disturbed. I like to sleep, and I like to do it all the time. Anyone who wakes me up is asking to be flame broiled. Oh, and if this is Sauron, get lost. I am a servant of Morgoth, and I stick my fiery neck out for no one else, got that?"
