legendary pick-up lines of Middle Earth - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Valesse · 10-12-2005, 08:36 PM

It struck me as funny, with all the piratical and/or pop culture pick-up lines, there is simply is no depository for Lord of the Rings/Tolkien based ones. With that said I waited until I was delerious with a fever (okay, okay, a degree and a half over normal temperature and a stuffy nose) before venturing back out into the Barrowdowns with the audacity to fix this horrible injustice.

It must be noted, and thus repeated, that BD is a family site, and therefore wee little ones have access to allllll we say. Everything. No adult humor. Like always I'll get the ball rolling... because nothing is as inspirational as a rolling ball, right?

For Ladies:
"So...Did it hurt when you fell off of Taniquetil?"
"Shouldn't you be tending the stars right about now?"
"My! Thats the finest beard I've ever seen!"
For Lords:
"I couldn't help but notice how deep your elven eyes looked from the other side of the Eastfold..."
"Snaku Snaga!"

O my, I've played this game too many times and it always degenerates into....well, you know.

That being said:

Aragorn might try: "You are the prettiest girl in all the lands. I know because I've seen them all..." and, of course, following it up swiftly with "...because I've travelled so extensively!" Don't want to give the wrong impression, do you?

Gandalf the White would definitely crow "Check out my new threads!" All women love stylish clothes.

Samwise Gamgee might try the more straight-forward "Put that mug of ale down and give me a kiss!" He doesn't mess about with his words.

And Manwë? All he would do is yell "I'm the King, baby!" and women would flock to him. For women are attracted to power.

Good thread Valesse.

Hmmm.....

If Bilbo would try anything from "Why don't you come over for some tea?" to "Let's get this 111th birthday party started!!!!"

So would Frodo mind you.

Gandalf, well he could just uncloak couldn't he??? I did not just do that!!! Oops!!!! I meant he would "He, now that I'm not Gandalf the Grey, do you want to go out with me?"

I honestly don't know how Mandos managed to get anyone but I imagine it was something like this... "Hey!! Want to come over to my cool bachelor pad that's NOT filled with dead people?"

Gothmog · 10-13-2005, 02:38 PM

Manwe upon meeting Varda for the first time: Your eyes are like bright stars on a dark sky.
Varda: Duh! I made 'em!

or Manwe could go for: Want to fly to the stars with me on my personal eagle?
I mean, a ferrari wouldn't stand a chance.

stealing a little from Valesse:
Among dwarfes (you could try it elsewhere but I doubt it would work): You've got the most beautiful beard ever!
And the best is: it works for both the men and the ladies!

Legolas just lets his hair fly for a while.

And for all the dragons out there: You look frozen. I can warm up you

I just suddenly got this brilliantly strange image in my mind, which would kind of be like a pick-up line.

Gandalf singing 'A Whole New World' (from Aladdin) while stretching his hand down to a lady from the back of an Eagle.

I've never thought of Gandalf to be the romantic type, though.

Upon meeting a cutie, Pippen swaggers up to her and says, "Hey doll, ya know it only takes a spark to get a fire goin', and I couldn't help noticing the sparkle in your beautiful eyes...what say you and I spend the evening up on Beacon-hill?!!!

Hookbill the Goomba · 12-05-2008, 12:08 PM

Gandalf: So now they say I'm not allowed to uncloak in public any more.

Aragorn: So now they say I can't keep all the orc heads I collected!

Sam: So now they say I can't keep all the frying pans I collected!

Gollum: The doctors say that within a year or three I’ll be able to control the voices without medication...

Hmmm.... how bawdy with double entendres are we allowed to get with this thread?

I suppose it depends how silly it gets...

Gandalf: Hey, want to see MY Shadowfax?

Victim: That... That doesn't make any sense!

Gandalf: Um... I'll be right back.

Hmmm.

I shall step in and urge caution and restraint.
