What do you assign to Mordor? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I assign people who say that they are fat when they are skinny. You wanna know fat, look at me! I am fat... not you

I do agree about skinny people complaining all the time that they are fat. I have a feeling they do that just to hear that they are not, in fact, fat.

On a similar note, I want to assign people who complain endlessly about being fat (with or without basis), but do nothing about it; continue eating sweets instead of proper food, continue not doing any physical exersize, etc.

You just need to know gentlemen like me who will approach it logically.

"Do we accept that I am lean? Oh we do...great. Give me one of your skirts and shirts, if I wear this around all day, you must agree never to say you're fat again in my presense. Deal?"

(Yes this did work with a friend...not sure what I would have done if the clothes didn't fit, but they were actually kind of perfectly comfortable)

Thing about skinny people saying, "I'm fat," two things are going on at once: (1) they are allowing the predominant culture to dictate the terms of their worth; (2) they are actually saying, "I don't like myself."

Realisin that the lyrics of Gilgalad was an elven king which I love in the Stephen Oliver setting, fit almost perfectly to the anodyne theme tune of a fairly dire sitcom and getting it as an earworm

A friend lived in my room for a month.

a) I have never been in the same house for so long with such a spoiled, helpless, and brainless girl of my age before. It was a nightmare.

b) My room was never so amess, even when I had clothing on the floor from a month ago. Ever heard that you leave things as you found them?

c) Not only are my things all over the place, but there are things from the kitchen, the office, the bathroom, and other rooms of the house lying in every corner. I'm glad she used them when she needed them, but how about putting them back once you're done?

I think that after that one month of her visit I need a year of recovery.

My sister is going to Mordor? Okay.. I'll have a room to myself, then.

Having just started a new semester in college, I've already decided that Calculus needs to be sent straight to Mount Doom.

G55 doesn't allow math to be sent to Mordor, or else I'd send every math teacher above Grade 5

Galadriel55 · 09-04-2012, 03:23 PM

Calculus belongs in Numenor.

(I actually think this location is quite fitting)

That's quite right.
