It was. The rest of the audience laughs at the 'obvious' stuff - Bullroarer Took inventing golf and Rhosgobel rabbits and so forth. We laugh every time someone says "You know of what I speak" or Fili swaggers or Benedict Cumberbatch appears on screen or Thorin gives bedroom eyes, etc.

I've been told I could come as Lobelia, with a bit of change to my Missus Maggot costume, but I'm hankering after coming as one of Radagast's rabbits, a huge rabbit, possibly a pink bunny if that isn't stealing the Pink Wizard's meme, maybe called Hef.

Hahaha! I vote for Lobelia though, she's awesome! Unfortunately for you, we have no silver spoons.

I think she's given up on trying to make Agan civilised.

It's

I vote for Deutschland! I vote for

Ditto.
These are people I feel comfortable to be sick in the same room with. ♥
