Three main quotes will go round and round in my head, depending on how I'm feeling.
'Good morning!' said Bilbo.
'What do you mean?'
and
'Well, I'm back,' he said.
and.....
'Oh, Sam!' But I think that's more from the movie.
Quote:
Originially posted by Eomer of the Rohirrim:
Also archaic words (hither, thither, whence, etc.) On occasions I try to use as many as possible, resulting in mostly annoyed and confused conversation partners. It's a good way to scare off people you don't know very well. Well, that and shouting Be gone, foul dwimmerlaik! (which I sometimes do).

That amuses me that you sometimes talk with the archaic words. I have friends who come over sometimes and tease me about constantly using them. I don't
think I do...but evidently, I use more than most.
