Conversational Quotes - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Lindolirian · 06-15-2002, 11:12 AM

Ok, I don't know if any of you have seen Whose line is it Anyway? with Drew Carey, but its a really funny show where they play these wacky games. One of them is called "Song Titles" where the -players can only speak using the titles of songs, and they have to make a conversation out of it. To get to my point, we could do something like that. Thank goodness for this Middle earth mayhem forum, i was wondering where i would put this crazy idea. Anyways, we would have a "conversation" using only quotes from any Middle Earth related Tolkien book. For example, i will start of the converstation with a quote of Beorn's:

Quote:

Ugh, here they are. They don't seem dangerous. You can be off.

Now that is sort of a conversation starter, and you must reply with a quote that would make sense in the conversation. Try to make it funny, other wise this will get boring... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Go ahead and work off of the Beorn quote that i gave. Have Fun!!

"Saruman, Saruman!
Saruman, you missed your path in life. You should have been the king's hairdresser and earned your bread, and stripes too, by mimicking his counsellors. Ah me!"

-Gandalf when he realizes that it was Saruman who was the hairdresser the whole time.

When we combine our secret purrs, we produce the Purr of Power. And that is simply the amplified amity we feel as furred and purred beings.
