You know you're obsessed with LOTR when ... - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I used to write in the dwarvish runes all the time.

I actually didn't do it right because I only used the first twenty-six to substitute for all the letters of the alphabet.

I've forgotten most of them, though. I used to write all the charatcters and the actors' names in the runes when I was bored. Which was pretty often. And I can quote a lot of the lines from the movies. It's all my dad's fault, really. He bought me The Hobbit a few years ago for Christmas, and I've been hooked ever since!

when you get into a discussion with your teacher in the middle of class about Lotr trivia pursuit.

....you want to form your children's young impressionable minds to everything LOTR. For instance, mine were scared of lightning/thunder. I told them not to be afraid, it was the stone-giants (from 'The Hobbit') hurling thier rocks down the mountains. My eldest was miffed when she learned about the real weather, so I told her that it was a myth. A tale to explain something scary.
....you keep having children so you can have a big hobbit family. I'm up to 4!!
....you are happy that your husbands method of hunting is with a bow, and he isn't into LOTR.

You make a flash music movie/video with Legolas, Galadriel, Elrond, Fidwit, and a whole elvish choir...singing the ORIGINAL SCORE of "I feel Pretty" from West Side Story...

Okay, my friend and I were really bored... Plus it was funny when the video's test drive was stuck on that creepy galadriel picture were she's "glowing". Besides that, Legolas was great for the acrobatic scene shots...
