Questionable thread titles - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

alatar · 06-04-2008, 11:38 AM

Not sure how to handle this personal peccadillo, and so thought to - what else?!? - start a thread that somehow may lead to some therapy.

So it's late, and I'll looking over the new and not so new threads within a section, looking for somewhere to plant some words that may start some discussion but won't overtax my brain too much, and so I'm reading over the thread titles, and then it happens...

I get this urge to post one (or few) word answers to a thread, as, well, the answer's obvious and, well, you asked the question, didn't you? So far, I've held off, and I'm hoping that this thread will keep my typing at bay just a little longer, but...here's what I want to do, late in the night:

Did Aragorn really walk around the Wild with just a broken sword for protection? - Yes.

Was Sauron a Balrog? - No.

So what kind of fan were you? - Nitpicky.

Who's got the best signature? - Besides me?

The fall of the Dark Tower : how did you feel? - Itchy.

I hope that that will keep me away from your threads for at least a day or two. Keep me in mind the next time you end your thread title in a question mark, as I may just answer.

the phantom · 06-04-2008, 12:01 PM

Servant or Master Master.

The Barrow-Downs? Website.

Do Elves BURY their dead? Yeah.

Do Balrogs Have Wings? Yesno.

What's up with Celeborn? Nuthin.

How many in Battle of 5 Armies? Five.

Why destroy Laketown's bridge? Smaug.

Cheers, that's all I asked.

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 06-04-2008, 01:40 PM

Nitpicky. You said it.

Plenty of topics can follow this format. My dissertation had a question title: doesn't mean I didn't discuss anything therein! Besides, it shouldn't be the responsibility of a topic-starter in a discussion forum to remind everyone that discussion is encouraged in the thread.

Or you can just e-mail me, and I'LL GIVE YOU the correct answer.

alatar · 06-04-2008, 02:22 PM

Why destroy Laketown's bridge? - Because it was there...

Where is Aeglos? - It wasn't my turn to watch it.

What was Shelob, and more importantly, what was Ungoliant? - Spiders?!?

What do your Elven eyes see? - Not much beyond the jar I keep them in.

What Next To Read . . .? - See next line.

How Did Gollum Lose the Ring? - No pocketses, of course.

***The Barrow-Wight*** · 06-04-2008, 06:47 PM

I don't mind the thread titles that ask a full question, but the topics that sound like they were created by Vinnie Barbarino truly leave me shaking my head (i.e. What? Where? How? When?). I believe a topic should at least give a clue as to what is hidden within, just a click away.

Your sense obviously isn't refined enough to see that, clearly, that Huh?, Huh..What? and Ahh...What?? are about Balrog eating habits prior to the first sunrise, the perspiration levels of Shire porcine and the Quenya translation of Sam Gamgee's version of the Lay of Lúthien, respectively.

Did Aragorn really walk around the Wild with just a broken sword for protection? Condoms aren't mentioned in Middle-earth.

Nerwen · 08-12-2008, 08:33 AM

What does it all mean? I have no idea...

Lalwendë · 08-25-2008, 05:05 AM

Go on a general interest forum and you'll see a dozen threads a day entitled with helpful things like "Help! Quick!" or "Do you know..." etc. It generally turns out to be someone wanting to know the number of a shop that they could have got out of Yellow Pages...

alatar · 11-10-2008, 11:04 AM

Why Geneologies? - Because stick figure drawings just aren't as informative.

Actually from what I have heard it is quite unusual for monkeys to eat bananas in the wild, apparently it is too fattening.

No, that would make you a good person. However, you can like dwarves and Bree dwellers and still be a bad person.

If Smeagol had not died...? - Eru knows who wouldn't have been held liable in Gollum's subsequent 'slip-in-fall' lawsuit...

Avoiding the Old Forest...? - May I suggest 'Google Maps: Middle Earth' or a GPS unit?

Okay, I want to laugh every time I see it (and since I have laryngitis at the moment, it's not a comfortable thing!), so I have to mention it. When I enter the main discussion forums page and it's there, I only see part of it:

How many Rangers of the North

So of course the mind, being old and creaky, immediately completes it with:

...does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Not the real full topic title, of course, but I laugh at weird things, I guess.

Not, sadly, the real thread title...but it was because the chicken crossed it and Sauron followed 'cause he wanted to barbeque and Isildur followed 'cause he wanted the shiny.

Lacking a clever title for the thread, I thought it wise to forestall any facetious remarks. My wisdom has been proven.

The answer being: three, one to actually do it and two to fight off Orcs so the lightbulb can live in simple peace with the Hobbits.

I saw! So I came up with a non-"to get to the other side" answer. No amount of foreknowledge can save you from the lame jokes of Lottie!

Nerwen · 02-01-2010, 10:07 AM

Could a Dwarf melee with a Balrog? –Sure, just wait until it gets distracted fighting the Witch King.

Hot Balrog Lovin' –Ewww. I liked the spammers much better when they were just offering cheap deals on iPods.

Balrog Sprinters? –Should liven up the next Olympics.

As the Balrog flies –Flies? Ooo, you've made some enemies there.

Not necessarily. Old Roggie did some flying when Gandalf pitched him off the mountain top.

When I enter the main discussion forums page and it's there, I only see part of it: How many Rangers of the North So of course the mind, being old and creaky, immediately completes it with: ...does it take to screw in a light bulb? Not the real full topic title, of course, but I laugh at weird things, I guess. __________________ Call me Ibrin (or Ibri) :) Originality is the one thing that unoriginal minds cannot feel the use of. — John Stewart Mill

I liked the spammers much better when they were just offering cheap deals on iPods. Balrog Sprinters? –Should liven up the next Olympics. As the Balrog flies –Flies? Ooo, you've made some enemies there. __________________ "Even Nerwen wasn't evil in the beginning." –Elmo. Last edited by Nerwen; 02-01-2010 at 10:13 AM. Reason: Formatting.
