LOTR jokes actually done

[Eruwen]

There is this thread in the MIDDLE EARTH MAYHEM section that is called something like 101 ways to freak your friends and family out, Ya know? Well, I used the Gollum one on my friend when I went to camp.

We were in our cabins and I got underneath my sleeping bag, and pulled the covers over my head. For some reason, I thought of Gollum. And I had my ring I got from a bookmark in my hand. So, I started yelling really loud, "My love, My own, MY PRECIOUS!!" She started freaking out. She was like..."Uh, Deana, what is your problem? You are really starting to scare me". She, obviously, does not like LOTR. But it was sooooo much fun!!!

Has anyone else here done anything like that for REAL? I just wanted to know if I was the only one who ever does that or not. Lol. smilies/smile.gif

[Lady_Galadriel]

Yeah, I've done stuff like that... On my first day of high school, during lunch I took my food, and went behind the last portable behind the school. After a while I decided to read and pulled out ttt.

I was sitting on the ground so into my book, I didnt even notiace these beetles crawling into my chip bag. (apparently I was sitting near a colony or whatever) When I reached for a chip I got one on my hand. Then I notaiced them crawling all over my food, and backpack. I grabbed my stuff and shook it off while yelling
"it's mine! My precious! Nobody can take this away from me. I found it! Leave me alone! Go back to the shadows where you came from!"

Little did I relize that there were some older kids around the corner who looked over to see what was going on. I was sooo embarresed, but it was quite funny though! smilies/rolleyes.gif
I think they were kinda freaked out, and amused, in a way... In there minds was probaly "another stupid freshman... will they ever grow up?"

[Aroaraniel]

Hmm, I called someone a "Fool of a Took" before...but nobody thought it was funny.

[Raefindel]

Here are a few of the olders posts.

Mohter's Day, LOL! (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=2&t=000730) smilies/cool.gif

[Arwen Imladris]

Whenever my mom or dad takes of their plain, goldish weding ring, I grab it and say something to the effect of "We must through it into the fires of mount doom!" They laugh at me, but the sad thing is that they know what I am talking about!

[mark12_30]

My husband goes fishing every Saturday morning. And when he cooks them up for dinner Saturday night, I get to prowl around the kitchen saying "Fisshhh, nice fissshh, makes us strong, yesssss, nice fisshh." He laughs, shakes his head and says, "Ohh, Noooo."

Sometimes I add, "Give us fisssh NOW, and keep nassssty chips."

[NyteSky]

Last time someone tried to look at my class ring I tried being Gollumish. "NO! IT'S MINE! MY OWN, MY PRECIOUSSSSSS." Then I snarled a little while huddling over my ring. Worked amazingly well. Everyone left me alone after that. Well, except for all the freaked out looks. But they're letting me out of my sanitarium in 2 months if I keep up the good behavior. So anytime anyone wants something of yours I encourage you to try it. smilies/wink.gif I think someone should start a course, like one of those motivational speaker things. "How Gollumness Can Improve Your Life". Or something like that.

[Lady_Galadriel]

Early this morning I went outside to take the trash can to the curb, and this cat (who is a really mean cat, i named it saurman, even though it's not mine) was sitting on top of my trash can! I tried to shoo it away but it wouldnt go.
So i yelled "go back to the shadows where you came from. Go back and never return evil saurman!"
It was kinda early so I possibly woke up a few neighbors and all!

[Armadoin]

One time, my cousin was over, and she is scared to death of Gollum, so everynight before we went to bed, I would act like gollum and she would have nightmares all night! She told me I was evil smilies/evil.gif but when I told her no, Sauron is, she was really mad and won't come over anymore! I laughed until i practically cried! smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Merry Brandybuck]

There's a standing joke between me and my friends, that whenever anyone sees a flock of birds, they'll point it out to me and I'll scream
"Crebain from Dunland! HIDE!"
in this weird squeaky voice I do. Once I even threw myself to the ground, dragging a few friends down with me.
No one knows what Crebain are though. It's quite amazing I have any friends left.

[Armadoin]

Me and my boyfriend dressed up as Aragorn and Arwen(we're birds of a feather) and we acted out the entire scene in Rivendell for a talent show at school; kissing included. needless to say, we got disqualified and didn't win because of " inappropiate actions". I thought it was pretty good. smilies/smile.gif

[Pookabunny]

Like when I'm driving and yell to other people "YOU CANNOT PASS!!!"

I enjoyed the post about the Saruman cat. That was pretty cool.

You guys rock!

[Arathiriel]

L smilies/tongue.gif L!

Love all these and I wish I had the nerve to do some of the same things but alas there are NOOOOOOOOOOOOO other LOTR fans in my house!

[Nevfeniel]

I wish I could do some of these things, but no one would be able to figure out what I'm talking about, and what's the fun if there's no one to laugh with you?

[charly]

Everytime I copy someone´s homework I go: Thanksssssssssssssssss precioussssss. And this one time I was having a sleepover and we freaked ourselves out by going "Drums. Drums in the deep. There coming." the whole time. We got seriously scared after 10 min. of doing it... smilies/smile.gif

[pherostien]

I was in math class day dreaming and my teacher asked my for an answer to the classwork... I pointed my pecil at him and said,"If you want it come and claim it!"
Big mistake, but I was supported by other LotR fans.

[vanwalossien]

i've got one of those rings from the bookmarks, and since the LOTR movie opening is the event of the year at my school, even for non-lotr fans, everyone wants to look at it. When I get tired of it I whisper: NO, it's mine, my own, my precioussss. People think I'm bit odd...

[Reyna Evergreen]

Every once and a while I'll randomly start dancing around in the hallway in between classes singing "The Road Goes Ever On". At first everyone looked at me like I was insane, but eventually (after a few times of tripping over my own dances or running into that particualr guy I've had my eye on) my friends all joinned in. So now we have a particular dance we named the "Hobbit Dance" and we'll all lock arms and dance around the hallway singing. So if you ever deciede to visit Canada and enter a partiular highschool and hear laughing and Bilbo's song, scream out Reyna and we'll grab you and show you our gig. smilies/biggrin.gif

Just goes to show even though jokes can be funny, it spreads! *goes off singing and dancing her famous song*

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

One time my brother told me he was off to the football. So you know I had to shout "Of course you are Mr Frodo, and I'm coming with you!"

But I generally just shout out LotR quotes at any random moment regardless of the situation, such as "What are you doing? THOSE WRAITHS ARE STILL OUT THERE!"

Hey, it amuses me.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

At university today there was a consistent banging on the wall, for, like, the whole lecture.
Anywho, I turned to my friend and in my best Gandalf voice

"Drums, drums in the deep!"

The hilarity never ends.

[Arwen1858]

I loved reading all those things y'all have done! I've been workingup courage to do stuff like that, and now that I've read these, I just might try it. I have a few friends who love LOTR, so at least they will know what I'm up to! smilies/biggrin.gif
Arwen

[elfling]

Well bacically I just throw out quotes wherever possible when at work. A few people understand them but most just think i'm crazy, they do think that they are from LoTR's since they know I'm obsessed.
I do this at home and my husband ,who has humored me with this obsession by reading the books and other stuff, does laugh and often responds.
My advice to all is to go ahead even if thoughs aroiund you don't understand. You might be suprised who does get the jokes. One of the doctors I work with used the Aragorn All that is gold does not glitter quote And she and I had a great time laughing about the others reactions to us.

[Sapphire_Flame]

Basically I quote Sindarin from the Movie at every opportunity (including some stuff I wrote myself). It's really funny, all the looks I get for doing that...
I'll randomly start dancing around in the hallway in between classes singing "The Road Goes Ever On".
ME TOO!!!! Occasionally I end up running into walls and doorframes and what-not, but it's just too funny seeing everyone stare at me like I belong in a mental institution. smilies/rolleyes.gif Well, I do, but that's beside the point. Plus, you know, that's a good song!!

One more thing: anyone here have a teacher who symapathized with your LotR insanity? My computer teacher loves LotR, and, the first day of class, two girls were saying how much they hated Lord of the Rings, and my teacher took points off their grades for it!! smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/evil.gif

LOTR 4EVER!!!!!!!!!

[Ainalondwen]

I've thrown only a couple of film quotes about in the office, although most of my colleagues have seen the film (3 out of 5) They all have only seen it perhaps twice at the most, not the 10 times at the cinema like me.


They worry about me. So do I occasionally. smilies/biggrin.gif

BTW, Eruwen, I love your Picture smilies/smile.gif

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

In my philosophy class we were talking about souls and spirits and whatnot, and I was sort of arguing against the existance of spirits.

And then it came to me.

"No Frodo! The Spirit of Sauron ENDURED!

Yes, I did say it very loudly and yes I did get a really weird look from my tutor. But hey! Whatever

[Lindril Arvilya]

Another "drums on the deep" one....

My drama teacher is constantly blaring her dance music when she's teaching during my spare, and all you can hear from the caf is the bass going. I'd been playing cards one time with my friend Sandy, and he;d had his head bent over his cards. The booming of the bass started up, and he raised his head slowly, looked me in the eyes, and said "They're coming...."

I fell off the bench.

He does a good impression of Pip from the movie as well. "Look Merry, it's Frodo Baggins!"

[Morgul Queen]

I don't know if anyone else thinks this is funny but:
this one time i was at my mums friends house and we( my mums friend and her son david and me) had gone to see LOTR at the movies and when we got back mum was half asleep so david stole her wedding ring and i stole this really dark grey almost black sheet from the room i was sleeping in and a stake from the garden and started chasing david while screaming really loudly( and shrilly) and saying 'come back, come back to Mordor i will take you' and he was saying ' nay, you shall not have it'(this was done at about midnight and we had turned all the lights off, which didnt matter as we were laughing so hard we coulnt see straight)

and the next day mum gave us some money and asked us if we wanted fish and chips soooooo the all famous line "give usss fisssh now and keep nasssty chipsss" just popped out of three mouths at the same time HEEHEE were so immature smilies/biggrin.gif

[Cúdae]

Here's a couple of mine:

My teacher was sending me to "visit" the principal, so I replied "Because I greatly desired to speak with him..." In my best impression of Celeborn.

One must kick my locker with a steel toe boot (which I have and wear often for this reason) to get it to open, but one day, nothing would work so I started yelling "Mellon!" everyone just stared and a few of the LOTR fans just smiled and shook their heads sadly at me.

I have a very short friend who grew about two inches over the course of the past month, so one day I went up to her and said "You have grown Halfling." She did not find it very funny...

I speak French fluently, so when a French exchange student came to stay with my family, I was thrilled. Well, we were speaking together one day and she said something to my brother in French. My brother (who does not speak French) asked me to translate. I said: "She said, 'You breathe so loudly she could shoot you in the dark.'"

[Sasha]

Most of my frens dun read lotr so i cant reali fool around wit them smilies/frown.gif
But i haf a story, its not reali tat funny though. I was climbing tis large tree at my uncle's house & when i was at the top i couldnt get down, honest! I didnt wanna shout for help so i jus sat there pretending to be fine until my uncle came out to see. When he saw me he said, "Why, if it isnt master Merry!" I didnt laugh i nearly wanted to cry instead. He had to get me a ladder.
From then on tat particular tree was officially nicknamed 'Treebeard'

[Merri]

My friends did this one, but I think it still counts.

Their History teacher was talking about how much he hated his laptop, and suddenly my best friend goes, "We hates it . . . oh, yes, we hates it . . ." And right at that moment, my other friend chimed in, and they said "My precious", at the same time. I wish I were there to see.

But I do imitate Gollum sometimes. When someone tried to take my copy of The Two Towers, I began hissing, "No! It's my own, my preciousssss." I got some really weird looks for that, but I loved it! smilies/smile.gif

[aragornreborn]

I often mutter LOTR quotes to myself, and then people look at me strangely. But I sure show them. I call them "Nasty Bagginses." Also, if something's not going right, I'll shake my fist and yell, "we hates it! We hates it forever!"

I - need - help!

[Haelothiel]

Haha. I recently had to take care of my neighbor's animals. Being that it was gorgeous weather for the first time all winter, I was skipping down the road. Of course, I began with "The Road Goes Ever On and On". Little did I know there was a Fed Ex man driving too! My brothers and I were watching "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" and apparently some company with a ring produced it. So of course Andrew started, "One ring to rule them all..." and Ben says, "One ring to find them..." and I say, "One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them!" my parents were there and we got a couple weird looks. Who DOESN'T say my precious about something? Whenever anyone tried to steal anything I try it out!

[harlindon]

HAHAH these are good! Once when my room was messy and my aprents came by to "check up on it" i stood in my door way and said loudly " You shall not pass!" They didn't think it was funny. And it didn't have the effect i wanted, cause i started to giggle because i really didn't mean for it to come out that way, but it did. They just kinda looked at me and said no more LOTR for you today.

[Tinuviel the Nightingale]

lol all your posts are really funny it makes me proud to be a lotr freak. Well me and my friend were walking in our neighborhood with non lotr freaks and we saw this giant dog coming towards. Me and my lotr friend yelled out, "Aaah a fell beast!!!!" our other friends were staring at us in disbelief, when the dog started chasing us. We started running away screaming, "noro lim asfaloth!!!!!"
Also, I walk around my high school wacking random people with a 'gandalf staff' (rolled up piece of paper'
everyone at my school now knows I am a lotr psycho.
Alas, I am the only one.

[Yavanna]

Heh, those are really funny. =)

My friends and I usually just randomly say LotR quotes for no reason when it has nothing to do with whatever we're doing. It doesn't sound funny, but it really is.

[Waenfalathiel]

last month me and my friends went camping. one day we decided to go for a hike in the woods the firsttime we went out it was raining so we only went for a short walk and we were singing The Road Goes Ever On. the next day we went on a long hike and were pretending were elves and one hobbit. Any way I am a bit shorter than my friends so one of my friends called me an elf with a glan disorder. only those who have seen the Scooby Doo Movie will get this.

[Sleeping Beauty]

lol...these are very cute. I have a very short friend who grew about two inches over the course of the past month, so one day I went up to her and said "You have grown Halfling." She did not find it very funny... I will have to try that sometime. I have a few short friends. *snickers*

Now I have my own to tell. Not so sure it is as funny though. Whilst on a roadtrip with some friends, we kinda sorta got lost because of the driver. I was sitting in the front seat and I turned to her and said. "Where in Middle-Earth are we?" All of us were LOTR fans, so we cracked up. I don't know where in the books it is, I just remembered Gimli said it.

[Sword Maiden Of The Shire]

I posted this already but oh well... smilies/rolleyes.gif
---------------------

My cousins and I (about 12 of us) were down in my basement and the power went out. It was raining/thunder/lightning and it was night-time....

I went upstairs to get something and when I came down the stairs, I heard one of them say

"Yeah It's in my pocket"...

So I said in my Gollum voice (which is perfect,)

"What's he got in hisss nassssssy pocketsesss!!!??".....

I've never seen so many people run from one end of a room to another. And the screaming..... smilies/evil.gif

[GaladrieloftheOlden]

i've got one of those rings from the bookmarks, and since the LOTR movie opening is the event of the year at my school, even for non-lotr fans, everyone wants to look at it. When I get tired of it I whisper: NO, it's mine, my own, my precioussss. People think I'm bit odd... Exactly what I do!!!! smilies/rolleyes.gif smilies/cool.gif

[Salix]

Strange, I call my cat 'my preciousssss'. Considering she's black all over, she doesn't fit the image of 'golden ring'. I swear, my entire family (including me) is insane. My parents are punsters, and my siste calls herself insane.
Oh yeah, and I have one of those bookmark rings that I used to use to taunt a little brother of one of my friends, until he got his own. I wouldn't let him touch it. smilies/evil.gif

A couple minutes ago, I was talking to my sister.

Sis: Go away!
Me: Go away? (and then I started talking to myself)
Me2: I hate you, I hate you!
Me: Where would you be without me? *gollum* *gollum* I saved us. It was me. We survived because of me!
Me2: Not anymore.
Me: What did you say?
Me2: Master looks after us now. We don't need you.
Me: What?
Me2: Leave now and never come back. Leave now and never come back! LEAVE NOW AND NEVER COME BACK! (this got some very weird looks from my sister)
Me2: We told him to go away! And away he goes, preciousss. Gone, gone, gone, Sméagol is free! (more weird looks from my sister)

Sis: Leave me alone!
Me: Oh, but you are alone. Who knows what you have spoken to the darkness, the bitter watches of the night. When all your life seems to shrink. The walls of your bower closing in about you.


I really expected my sister to say something like, 'Your words are poisen!' but, of course, she didn't. She didn't understand what I was saying at all, because she hasn't seen TTT yet (not that she wants to).

[the guy who be short]

I was in math class day dreaming and my teacher asked my for an answer to the classwork... I pointed my pecil at him and said,"If you want it come and claim it!"
Big mistake, but I was supported by other LotR fans.
when does this happen again? ive forgotten

i always go around singing all the lord of the rings songs, i have memorised lots. such as the song of the ent and entwife, the lay of gil galad, the road goes ever on and on, seek for the sword that was broken... it goes on. i also always quote lines.

[the guy who be short]

There is this thread in the MIDDLE EARTH MAYHEM section that is called something like 101 ways to freak your friends and family out,

could you please tell me what it is actually called?

[One Axe to Rule them All]

I have a funny story to do with that, one day i was playing with my cousins and fireworks smilies/evil.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

so i set of a bottle rocket in my bare hand and had smoke all over me, and i said to my cousin, "That was great Merry, let's get another on!"

[Luthien_ Tinuviel]

I love doing weird Gollum things, but I can't do the voice. I even invented a word: "gollumic". I think the meaning is self-explanatory. This one time at our church there was a constant banging upstairs, and I did the whole drums in the deep thing. Then there are the times that all of my LOTR-obssessed friends and I suddenly start doing the dance which Frodo dances in the movies during Bilbo's birthday party (it must be the Springle-ring smilies/wink.gif ). I also love to use LOTR quotes, book or movie, in any situation that is appropriate.
Also, my best friend just loves to scare me by doing her Gollum act or Grishnakh act (whichever she most feels like doing) in the dark. It always freaks me out because she's really good at doing imitations and mimicking people.
Every time I see a large flock of crows I yell "Crebain from Dunland!" and always get asked what crebain are.

[Adutincowen]

It just so happens, my friend has a copy of The Precious (which she wears around on asilver chain, no less!) and every so often a conversation like this happens:

Me: "Can I wear that necklace?"
Her: "The one with The Precious?"
Me: "Yes!"
Her: "Why?"
Me: "Because they stole it from ussssss! Nasty Hobbitssss!"
Her: ......
Me: "...and we WANTSSS IT BACK!!"

(this makes perfect sense to us, as she is the approximate size of a Hobbit)

WoW! I was cracking up while I was reading these!! LoL Now for my story! Ok, one time me and my friends went to a friend's vocal concert and the building had a automatic door. We went though the door like 6 times saying 'Mellon' each time! People were staring at us and it was really funny! Also, during study hall me and my friend always take LOTR quizes online, insted of doing our homework and shout out the answeres and sigh really loud when we get questions wrong and our whole class makes fun of us! I find it really funny! smilies/smile.gif

[Sapphire_Flame]

...the building had a automatic door. We went though the door like 6 times saying 'Mellon' each time!

Heehee! smilies/biggrin.gif I'm gonna start doing that when I go to the library...

[Nyneve]

I had A ring made of some sort of black stone and my friend wanted to look at it and I started yelling, "mustn't hurt the precious!" and I dropped it by accident and it shattered into a million pieces and she said, "Cool! I didn't know mount Doom Was in our French Class!"

[Sapphire_Flame]

Nyneve, I bet the ring was made of hematite. That stuff shatters so easily, it's really not fair. My friend has gone through 3 hematite rings in a year! smilies/eek.gif

My condolances on the loss of your precious.

[Yavanna Kementari]

These are hilarious!! I love them all!

Some times when I ask Aulë a question and he doesn't answer me immediately I mock Treebeard and go "Hoom hoom hoooooooooom, lets see know, let us not be hasty." He just looks at me and says, "It's not funny!"
I find it rather funny and I can't stop laughing.
My daughter Lalaith is seriously afraid of Gollum so I can't do any of his lines in his voice. smilies/frown.gif Poor Child! *laughs*

I was at my mum and da's house and I was helping da burn cardboard in the furnace and when he opened it up flames came shooting out and I was going to shout "Flame of Udun!” but I decided to see if his facial hair was still in tact! *laughs heartily*

I am planning a few new ones. I'll let you know how it turns out. Then again maybe we should post it in Middle Earth Mayhem?? Sorry not a mod smilies/rolleyes.gif

My mother and I were out shopping in the early morning, and we were goofing around.

Me: I'm hungry. When's breakfast?
Mom: You've already had it.
Me: "well, I've had one, yes; what about second breakfast?"

She got it, too! My mother doensn't love LOTR like me and hasn't read any of the books, but she adores Pippin and has seen both of the movies.

"If you want it, come and claim it" is from the FotR, when Arwen is at the Ford, and the Wraiths demand that they give her the halfling (and call her a she-elf.) You might remember it from the old trailers.
