You constantly misread things, Eg: Ford=Frodo, celebration=Celebriant etc.
and you start mispronouncing words. Instead of Cicero, you say Kikero

That one's actually correct (latin classical pronunciation).

Digitalizing Gimli's Ale? Oh come on, technical progress is one thing, but when even beverages become digital...

You know you're obsessed with LOTR when nearly a decade after the release of the movies you are STILL going to work dressed like an elf, or a hobbit, depending on the day.

So at this very moment by brother is playing this video came called Borderlands. So in the game there's this little "Midget" guy that he has to help by restoring the flow of "purple juice" to "Midgetville". The way he has to restore the flow of the juice is by activating 4 pumps.
The names of the pumps? Brandybuck, Took, Gamgee and Underhill. I got terribly excited.

![]() On topic...I don't have anything to beat you guys, but told a co-worker the other day he looked like a Hobbit having a bad hair day. I lapse into Gollum-speak on a regular basis, even though I can't get the voice right to save my life. When I label a container of leftover food, I have to restrain from writing "what's TATERS, precious?" for potatoes, 'leaveses' for salad, 'eggses', etc.
