Hilarity from the LOTR peanut gallery
Jan. 2nd, 2003 03:59 pmI just want to say I love the
lordoftherings community. Two days ago there was this long, delightful, pervy-hobbit-fancying thread, which moved from "Frodo looks orgasmic when handling the Ring," to "Pippin's lips sure are pretty," to "Love that RAWR look Sam gives Frodo," to "Here, everyone! A photo of Dom Monaghan in the shower!" Great amounts of fun. (And, yes, of course I added my two cents to egg them on.)
Then today there was this thread about how Sam keeps losing track of Frodo in the second film, with suggestions that he get Frodo a shock collar, not to mention a more reliable chain for that Ring (you know, one that won't keep falling off?). This has evolved into a discussion of how many times Frodo falls over, Legolas prances or says something obvious, or Aragorn flirts with someone. [Edit: This site, which is linked in that thread, actually has the answers to some of those things, also including how many times "Frodo screams like a girl", "Sam looks like he's about to propose to Frodo", and "Gandalf looks particularly fluffy". Very, very funny!]
*sigh*
Yes, someday I'll post something unrelated to LOTR again. Just not yet.

Date: 2003-01-03 03:35 pm (UTC)In a kind-of-related comment, there was a lookalike of Frodo in costume (a rather cute one I have to say) at the London Premier, and he had an eyebrow piercing. We were saying how Frodo should have had The One Ring through his eyebrow so he wouldn't get tempted to put it on. Cha...
LotR posts are always good! God bless PEF/PHF's everywhere

However, I wonder how you'd do it, since you can't cut or weld or hinge the Ring in any way. Stick another ring through it, and use that one for the piercing, I guess.
Now I'm imagining Frodo with an eyebrow piercing, the Ring smacking him in the eyelashes as they enter the Emyn Muil... "Ow! It's the Ring, dammit. It's getting heavier. And it's in my eye." And that's just one of about a hundred Ring-piercing jokes we could make...*grin*
