piosenniel: Ugh! I hate RPG's! They make me so angry! The next RPG I see is going to be closed faster than the doors of Meduseld when Grima was there! And that's pretty fast, people!

Since I don't know anyone on this site well ENOUGH to speculate on what they would not post, I'll just go through with a semi-general overview.

Anyone: TEH HARY POTER PWNS J00 !!!!!!1!!!!1!!!!shiftone!!!!1!!!!!

Any mod: Perhaps it is time to a brief hiatus from Tolkein.

Any mod: Wait a sec, what's this Silmarilla thingy everyone's talking about?

Well, that was indeed pathetic, but I managed to scratch out something from my tired mess of a brain.

Hmm, I should start using the word "pwns" in conversation. That word pwns. Does anyone, pray tell, even know what that means. I'm ashamed to say I do (background in another, less respectable site, thankfully non-Tolkein affiliated).

Next: My ill-aimed grammar lesson on the word 'pwns' and all its vocabularic kin, AND furthermore, why Tolkein should be painstakingly translated into netxpeak.

Oh, there's something I don't think anyone would say, regardless of Tolkein obsession...Of course, I have met people who would wish such a thing...By the lidless eye, I really keep lousy company these days. Never liked that 'language' though. Too hasty, hooom!

The Saucepan Man: I absolutely do NOT rule the Quiz Room.

HerenIstarion, do I detect a touch of bitterness?

Nay, I mock those whom I love

With that in mind, may I be so bold as speculate about what you'd never say?

Lhunardawen: I always take what people post at face value, never minding underlying meanings and possible intentions...

Lhunardawen · 05-05-2004, 12:03 AM

I'm honored! Well, I suppose I could say that...I could be insensitive and naive at times.

mark12_30: Stitch???

I noticed the Stitch avatars...

Ok, I'll take a stab at it:

Perky Ent: Man, this Quiz room is so damn boring!
NightKnight: Gee, I'm stumped!
Any mod: All this forum business is wasting my precious valuable time! That's it, I quit! I got better things to do with my free time: like watch Melrose place!
Anyone who frequents ME Mirth: What's this Disco King business??

Lhunardawen: Yes, Stitch... he fascinates me as essentially a product of genetic engineering (like an orc) who ended up with free will somehow (like Aule's dwarves) and who then was led into love, belonging, adoption, and the awakening of conscience (like redeemption) through the love of those who believed in, and desired, the best for him (agape.) .....so... Yes, I'm very fond of Stitch.

Back on topic:

Nurumaiel: Family? Loyalty? Caring? Gentleness? What's that all about?

Orual: Deep thought? Nah, I go for hack-and-whack.

littleManPoet: Aragorn opined, "We're obligated to approach employing the most roundabout and indirect route toward our predetermined rendezvous destination. Insomuch as we follow this methodology it's completely assured beyond a reasonable doubt that we'll naturally arrive with the maximized melodramatic and climactic impact. Go, us!" To which the witty, eloquent, and totally elegant Legolas retorted ever so dryly and suavely, "Oui, Missieur."
