What do you assign to Mordor?

Just kidding.

Being left at school for two hours because the answering machine didn't record the message when you called and asked to be picked up, and then screamed at for not calling more times and lied to about the last time you were left someplace when you finally are picked up.

When your violin still isn't fixed, even though you were told it would be ready several days ago. I'm going into withdrawal, especially since I got a bunch of wonderful new music to play which I can't until I get the violin back, since a lot of it isn't really suited to the penny whistle.

I assign colds to mordor! I also assign the fact that there aren't enough tissues in my house. Stuffy nose, soar throat, headache. The whole works. IT SUCKS! To Mordor you go, and don't come back!

[Dimturiel]

Wilwarin, you seem to be dealing with the same problems as me. What a strange-and painful- coincidence. And while we are at it I am tempted to send my cute little dog into Mordor for eating most of my tissues. And students who insist on coming to school when they are sick so they can generously spread their viruses should go to Mordor and become one of the many weapons that the Dark Lord uses.

Ah I've missed this thread It's nice to have a place where you can rant.

I would like to assign people who you think are your friends and then they turn round and stab you in the back. Not literally, that might actually be a little less painful though.

Indeed! Well, given my recent circumstances (Evacuating from New Orleans to Houston. And now form Houston to Dallas) i now assign Hurricanes to Mordor. They are just pure evil! Pure! There is nothing good about them in nature. And think of all the baby puppies that you see on the news that are now up for adoption. All that goes through their mind is and : ( ...and occasionally . Hurricanes are definetly Mordor material!

Having to go back to work and my vacation being over next week. But I'm not dwelling on it, no way.

Knowing that you are completely out of clean clothes... and there not being a single open washing machine. Actually, I'll expand that to having to share a laundry facility with 140 women. Do you have any idea how many clothes a dorm full of women goes through? There's never an open machine. And then if there is, the dryers are in use for the next several hours after your load finishes.

Not, of course, that I'm annoyed by this or anything.

PS: welcome back LMP!

having to share a laundry facility with 140 women.

Let me see... 140 college girls... and me...

That doesn't sound very Mordorish at all!

I would tend to place it somewhere between awesome and heavenly.

My dear boy, I am one of those college girls. Which means that you are automatically evenly matched by wit and extreme good looks, as well as debate and observation skills. And then, after being immediately humbled by me, you'd have to deal with everyone else. I have a feeling that you'd be begging to go home within a week.

And interpretation besides the creator's should ought to go there. My photography is not a socio-political commentary on obesity and plasticity of American culture. I do not reflect the impressionable nature of children, nor cynically comment upon "televisions as babysitters". Both pictures mentioned are a study of light, reflection, color interaction, and shape. Also, convenience in completing an assignment, as both vending machine and television (Mordor-worthy creations in themselves) were easily within range of my room. In any case, my interpretation is the interpretation, and that should be that. If I did not create with the intent of a message, then the message is not there. It is your own bleedin' baggage that sticks it where it doe'n't belong.

Unsigned positive reps. Yes, I know it's all up to the repper & that I should just be happy with the thought & the comment (& I am), but darn it's annoying when you can't figure out who it is that repped you! Of course unsigned negs would be much worse, but in a different sort of way.

edit: of course it's the height of irony for me to receive an unsigned *snicker* for this post...& the height of cruelty for the repper to do such a thing.

[Cailín]

I just have to...

Phonetics should go to Mordor. Including all people who actually like phonetics. They scare me.

The difference between English and American spelling should go to Mordor, too. Honestly, why couldn't you keep it at one system and vocab?

Also, the expression sanguine about definitely does not belong in a happy land. Nobody knows what that means, anyway *sulks*

And evil, sarcastic, sadistic teachers - who say you argue like the American president - should be assigned to Mordor immediately.

Absolutely. Bagsy our way wins.

Socrates. And Plato. And my Ancient Philosophy teacher with them. Make it a fight to the death between them in fact, preferably above the bubbling pit of Mount Doom's innards. Entertainment for all the family.

[littlemanpoet]

Lost passports and all the resulting complications. Grrrrr! Still in London.

[Lhunardawen]

Math exams scheduled at seven in the morning on a Saturday, no question.

*poke* *poke* I thought you'll stop sending things to Mordor?

This one attracts Mordor like...umm...fangirls flock to the phantom. So there.

[Lush]

Student loans.

As a soon-to-be student, may I ask why, Lush?

J. R. R. Tolkien obviously had to deal with phonetics in his professional career and obviously enjoyed it. I am also one of the people who actually like phonetics. So, as another example, is Tolkien author John Garth. Who I would send to Mordor is people who post a request for the pronunciation of some word but then ask that no-one use phonetics to give the pronunciation.

Again, Tolkien was a linguist who knew about such differences. And there are more supposedly correct spellings than two for many words. British English has the currently taught version, used in European Common Market documents, and the Oxford English Dictionary system, used in United Nations documents and in many academic documents.

Also, the expression sanguine about definitely does not belong in a happy land. Nobody knows what that means, anyway *sulks*

The word is often used, and I think that most who use it think they know what it means. Just look up the word in a dictionary if you have doubts and really don ’t know. See http://www.thefreedictionary.com/sanguine , or http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sanguine , or http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/sanguine or various other sites that will provide an answer more quickly than it took you to type the question in your post.

I have sympathy for teachers who must deal with what you think is an argument.

My swimming coach would feel right at home in Mordor. Especially after tonights session.. Yuck..
