Long and frequent comercial breaks during a movie especially if the movie happens to be TTT. I mean how can you watch a movie when every twenty minutes there is a ten minutes comercial break? I also send slippery roads and the people who should put salt or sand on the ice. It truly is a dangerous business going out these days.

I send to Mordor Brand Snobs.

I got an i-Pod ages ago and I just did not like it so exchanged it for the MP3 player I have now. I won't list why the i-Pod was not for me and why my current player is so flippin' brilliant, as I get sick of having to justify my choice, that's what I'm ranting about, having to justify it! I'm fed up with people saying "Oh if you had the money you'd have a i-Pod", because I did have one, and I just didn't like it! Likewise people who think that if you drive an old car you automatically can't afford a new, flashy one. They can't take the argument that I'd rather spend £20k on something sensible (or preferably not spend it at all ) than on a BMW that's going to devalue the moment I drive it. And while we're at it, what about those kinds of people who look down on you for not having designer gear? Big deal. At least I'm not in hock to my credit card company.

Rant. Rant. Rant.

In fact, let's just send Flash Harrys to Mordor.

Oh, and I'm also sending to Mordor people who bring smelly food into the cinema with them.

And the horrible feeling you get from having ate too much for your tea.

And Sky putting a rubbish film on for their big Saturday 'premiere'.

I conassign that fact to Mordor, too.

That would present a problem...Fea's been assigned to the Shire already. We certainly can't have her in two different places at once, can we?

To be more on topic, I conassign to Mordor this keyboard I'm using becauseits space bar doesn'twork very well.

See what I mean?

As far as I know, there's only one person from The Shire who went to Mordor as well.... and Fea seems to have been assigned to both The Shire (first) and Mordor after... therefore I must conclude, Fea is Frodo!!

no? well, at least I tried =)

Back on topic, I assign Organic Chemistry to Mordor and the fires of Mount Doom. I do not understand exactly why I'm supposed to memorize all those chemical reactions... THEY ARE ON THE BOOK FOR G'DS SAKE, IF I NEED THEM I WILL LOOK THEM UP RATHER THAN MEMORIZE THEM ALONG WITH EVERYTHING ELSE!!

And on that note, I assign memorizing lists of things to Mordor. Any kind of list.

So Frodo's a female? That explains all that clingy-ness to Sam...

As well as those tests for determining unknown cations and anions...uh-huh.

Oh, darn. Goodbye, (most of) Biology. What do I have to do in my life now?

I conassign the unwanted and unexpected flying action of time to Mordor. I can't believe I've been sitting here for two hours already!

Mostly because I need this for the RPG...

I conassign/assign/send/banish the following to Mordor:

Banjos.
Guitars.
60's folk music groups.

I actually like the preceding items to some extent, although they become annoying in excess.

And finally:

Musicians' managers.
Being gullible.

Now those last two are things which definitely belong in Mordor in all circumstances.
