Tuor in Gondolin · 08-24-2006, 09:25 AM

Fortunately, Eru wrote Saruman a "Dear Wizard"
letter in which he pointed out the logical flaw in
Saruman's threat. If Saruman

Quote:

'destroy(ed) all of Middle Earth' until he was taken seriously

then there wouldn't be any Middle-earth
to take him seriously.

Meneltarmacil · 08-24-2006, 10:12 AM

Unfortunately, Saruman caused Eru's head to explode somehow, which led to the annihilation of the entire universe.

High King Fingolfin · 08-24-2006, 12:08 PM

Fortunately, Eru was immune to Saruman's head-exploding powers.

Tuor in Gondolin · 08-25-2006, 09:53 AM

Unfortunately, Wormtongue wasn't, so in frustration
Saruman exploded him to Edoras, Minas Tirith, Bagend,
the Lonely Mountain, Mount Doom, etc.

Rikae · 08-25-2006, 01:45 PM

Fortunately, Wormtongue replaced his head with the palantir.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 08-25-2006, 02:00 PM

Unfortunately, it tuned out not to be a Palantir, but some dirt pressed together in a ball.

Gil-Galad · 08-25-2006, 02:03 PM

Fortunately that was how the Palantirs were made

High King Fingolfin · 08-26-2006, 12:05 PM

Unfortunately the dirt didn't bond correctly into a Palantir.

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-26-2006, 12:11 PM

Fortunately, it still worked as a head repacement.

The 1,000 Reader · 08-26-2006, 12:26 PM

Unfortunately, they were actual severed heads that swore at people.

Tuor in Gondolin · 08-28-2006, 11:19 AM

Fortunately, they only swore in an obscure orcish dialect
which only Celebrian could understand (picked up during
her time with nassty orcsees).

The 1,000 Reader · 08-28-2006, 10:14 PM

Unfortunately, it made her relapse and she had to go back to the Valinor Institute of Trauma.

Tuor in Gondolin · 08-29-2006, 09:45 AM

Fortunately, Celebrian did so well at the Valinor Institute of Trauma
that she earned a doctorate in Psychology and Trauma Treatment
and began to treat Feanor.

Volo · 08-29-2006, 11:34 AM

Unfortunately, Feanor was mad and had rabies.

Meneltarmacil · 08-29-2006, 12:19 PM

Fortunately, so did the random werewolf that jumped out and ate him.

Gil-Galad · 08-29-2006, 01:11 PM

Unfortunately, they merged creating the super awesome power of Were-Feanor

High King Fingolfin · 08-29-2006, 03:41 PM

Fortunately, Were-Feanor became good and single-handedly carried Frodo to Mount Doom thereby destroying Sauron.

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-30-2006, 02:24 AM

Unfortunately, Mount Doom always seemed just out or reach... some how...

Glirdan · 08-30-2006, 07:18 AM

Fortunately, Mount Doom turned into Mount Zoom, zoomed all over the country and became in reach.

Meneltarmacil · 08-30-2006, 08:25 AM

Unfortunately, it ran over Frodo.

Boromir88 · 08-30-2006, 08:43 AM

Fortunately, Frodo didn't have the Ring, the Eagle carrying Frodo did.

Meneltarmacil · 08-30-2006, 09:03 AM

Vroom!

Unfortunately, Mount Zoom drove faster than the Eagle could fly.

Boromir88 · 08-30-2006, 09:47 AM

Fortunately Mount Zoom wasn't paying attention to where it was going and ran head on into Minas Taxi.

Volo · 08-30-2006, 10:12 AM

Unfortunately (or really fortunately for some) Minas Taxi dodged Mount Zoom by just a few sentimeters.

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-30-2006, 10:19 AM

Fortunately, Mount Zoom rammed into Minas Taxi repeatedly because Sauron was drunk at the wheel.

The 1,000 Reader · 08-30-2006, 08:01 PM

Unfortunately (depending on who you are,) Both vehicles exploded, thus ending this too old and no longer funny running joke.

Gil-Galad · 08-31-2006, 01:22 AM

Fortunately, Gandalf ran by uncloaked again, but only to be mauled down by Were-Feanor the Forgotten, thus the people of M-E made Were-Feanor their new king after realsing them from the tryanny of Gandalf's uncloakness9and ending yet another runing joke)

Tuor in Gondolin · 08-31-2006, 10:07 AM

Unfortunately Were-Feanor the Forgotten hadn't forgotten
about Galadriel and threatened to lead a band of uberwargs
into Lorien if Galadriel didn't give him SIX!!!!!! strands of her hair
(and the directions to Gimli's abode).

Volo · 08-31-2006, 11:56 AM

Fortunately Galadriel shaved her head bare just yesterday, so Feanor retreated in disappointment.

Gil-Galad · 08-31-2006, 12:15 PM

Unfortunately not after Were-feanor mauled galadriel and celeborn out of randomness

THE Ka · 08-31-2006, 12:29 PM

Fortunately, Gandalf the uncloaker usurped the throne again, this time proving random efforts to brake all laws of physics and Eärendil's boat to crash, which caused the Were-Feanor to randomly fall into a blackhole and be torn into pieces, including those of Galadriel and Celeborn that were consumed in his maul...

~ Ka

Boromir88 · 08-31-2006, 12:38 PM

Unfortunately as Alan Rickman came and said, "Existance functions under one principle: Eru is infallible. To prove Eru wrong would undo reality and everything that is. Up would become down, black would become white, existance would become nothingness. If Gandalf uncloaked again after the running joke had been decreed as 'ended' he would unmake the world."

Gil-Galad · 08-31-2006, 06:57 PM

Fortunately, do to the last post, the world was unmade and all that survived were some long running gags, if you will, such as Mutant-Dog, Johnny the Stinky Balrog, the newly acclaimed were-Feanor, Mt. Zoom and any others i have missed

The 1,000 Reader · 09-01-2006, 12:33 AM

Unfortunately, Gandalf didn't uncloak fully, so the universe righted itself and all of the whored-out running gags were destroyed again, forcing new comedians to come up with their own skits.

Boromir88 · 09-01-2006, 05:56 AM

Fortunately, that new comedian was Denethor...

Hookbill the Goomba · 09-01-2006, 06:50 AM

Unfortunately, the best thing he could come up with was a very large hat that tried to eat people. He called it 'Hattington Smithe".

Meneltarmacil · 09-01-2006, 07:11 AM

Fortunately, the alien-eating dog chewed the hat up.

Boromir88 · 09-01-2006, 07:55 AM

unfortunately the hat had a silmaril in it and it turned the mutant-dog into a raging, unstoppable mutant dog.

Volo · 09-01-2006, 08:42 AM

Fortunately the raging unstoppable mutant dog became friends with Were-Feanor and they lived rabidly ever after. The end?

Meneltarmacil · 09-01-2006, 08:48 AM

Unfortunately, Gimli was still trying to find something to eat.
