When you meet someone new your first question is - "So, are you a LotR fan?" and if they say no you find yourself wondering how best to initiate them into the world of Tolkien, and all this before even asking their name!

It's a great way to pick up guys!
Seriously, though; I met my (now ex-)boyfriend at a party because a mutual friend said, "Go talk to him. He likes the Lord of the Rings." So that was what we talked about for quite a while, and we went out for over a year. LotR is a successful matchmaking device! Hmmm... maybe that should be a new thread: LotR-sparked relationships, especially in light of
Lal and
davem!
