What is better than a hobbit of oats?
-Two hobbits of oats!
Ahem. Yes, I know.
Blantyr: furlongs per fortnight! Wow!
Legate: I wish I could ask for something in hobbits. But the only grocery store that I frequent where they ask how much (weight) of something I need, is the local Russian store (where I'd ask for it in Russian)! Kinda defeats the purpose.
But if ever I'm asked in English how much of something I need, referring to the weight, I'm gonna ask for a hobbit or two!
Or, even funnier: I should ask for a half a hobbit.
Would that make these people Quarterlings?
