what do you do to annoy people who don't like LOTR? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

One of my favorite annoying-things-to-do is to tape things written in Elvish outside my dorm room. Most people on my floor have never even heard about Tolkien, much less know how to speak Elvish, and for some absurd reason, seeing my random snippets of writing makes them incredibly angry. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] I don't know.

The funny thing is, one of my roommates absolutely DETESTS anything having to do with LotR (or I think just literature in general). The other day she summed up Tolkien's entire legacy in her favorite three words: 'stupid little books.' So now, JUST for her, I quote from those 'stupid little books' left and right, and I'm in the process of proving to her just how wrong she is ... simultaneously educating AND perturbing her.
