Durelin, I'll agree with you about the 50 reasons; they're so funny! (See people? You can love Tolkien's work and still laugh when people joke like that. It's not a sin or anything!!!)
I can take a joke about LOTR, even if it doesn't seem like it. I don't mind too much when people make fun of Aragorn and Arwen, or Legolas and Gimli or other characters. I don't mind when they make fun of the movie. I find some of the things they do to it quite funny.

But the 50 reasons is a very bad joke, and one that doesn't seem funny, to me at least.

If one is going to make fun of LOTR, they can at least make a good joke of it, and not create something so lacking of humour that it is mistaken for stupidity by many people.

Cheers,
