my favorite

"Now, now don't be hasty" works almost everywhere especially at work my boss tells me to move faster.

Or when we're about to get a test "One by one they fell to the power of the teacher."

and i like saying all of treebeard's lines for no reason at all

All these are really fun!

I quote Lotr a lot, but right now the only thing that comes to mind (and apropriately, too) is the "Filthy pop-ups! Wicked , trickssy, falssse! Curse them! We hates them, we hates them forever!" OT: there's a pop-up that keeps coming up asking me if I want to get rid of pop-ups! I mean, seriously...

How tricksy can you get?

btw - I was on another, non-lotr related forum a few days ago, and someone said she was getting 'gollumic' because of a link that was not working. I was about to ask her if she knows the 'Downs and this thread:http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showthread.php?t=5284
But then I figured that Lotr had become so much of a mainstream thingy, that these sayings probably entered into spoken language already. How cool is this? This is language in the making!

That is so eery, Evisse the Blue! I say the same things about pop-ups. Often times when I`m about to post something, I discover that the same thing has already been posted! I think that we LotR fans share brain waves or something.

Now that I think about it, we really are inventing another language!

Went to see Chronicles of Riddick this weekend, and during a couple of scenes all I could think of was "Dirty, nasty, fithy orcs! We hatesss them, yesss we do." Don't ask.

Of course, there's also the ever useful "That sucks a big hairy hobbit toe."

One of my favorites....

Should we join forces, we could rule the world!

yesterday, mom wanted to borrow LOTR to one of her pupils, and my sister was scowling, and mom eventually said: 'It is mine to give to whom I will'. That was a blast!

What's scary is that you aren't even thinking about it and you are talking to someone and you wonder why something you said sounded familiar and realize it was from LotR.

I've done that!!!

LOL that's brialliant!!! LOL!!! I'm going to have to steal that, if you dont mind.LOL

A couple of days ago I was out riding my horse along my back fence when I noticed a gate had been pushed down, and my other horse and cows could get out.I didn't see the cows anywhere and it was getting close to dark so I kicked my horse and said something along the lines of "Show us the meaning of haste.".
I got back to the house, dad fixed the gate, and all is well.
BTW I have noticed that I sometimes speak with a British accent and say things like "bloody", "brialliant, and "wicked".The only thing wrong with this is I'm from Oklahoma; go figure.
