Hmmm... Should I go humorous? That could encorporate the fact that I would look JUST LIKE a hobbit if I wasn't so tall. Any suggestions?

I needed help when designing my BD name. Didn't realize it couldn't be changed! For an epitaph I could list all of my names, even the one my parents gave me. That could be cool!

I found it, I found it!!! I am a genius!!!
My future epitaph: “Farewell, a long farewell, to all my greatness!” (Shakespeare)

Brilliant! I never cease to amaze myself!!!

Let me see... what could I put for mine...
Ok this isn't original but it is all I could think of.

Front side: How to keep an idiot entertained for hours, see other side.

Back side: How to keep an idiot entertained for hours, see other side.

Ok now I am going to be mean to one of my favorite characters: Elrond!

Here I lie in the dirt.
You know death really hurts.
My daughter married a morron.
Now I have nothing to bang my head on.
I was immortal, now I am dead.
So everything is almost done and said.
Please go away I have no simpathy for you.
Just wait Mr Anderson I'll come back, I always do.

Ok I got a little carried away. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

hmm....well, for the name im under is one of my own characters names. it'd probably say something like " I knew i shouldnt have let that idiot human steer.." but taht makes not sense to most, ah well

Elves are immortal we don't need an epitaph!

Oh, here goes...

Faenaduial
Her heart and thoughts will
remain forever, dancing under
the tall trees of Mirkwood.

I also think my sig would make a good epitaph.

hummm, huummmm...let us not be hasty...think! oh well, i'm bad at this but maybe something like this:

do you really thik i'm dead? then i can't wate to see your face when i participate in your tea party tomorrow!

okey, that sucked but i'm dead i don't care [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Something gives me the feeling he was a little bit conceited. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

One for Gimli: I dont care what you do to this gravestone, 'cos I got into Valinor and you didn't, so neh!

This is one for Elrond (again)

If i die
before i wake
At least in heaven i can skate
oh wait, that is a song,
Nevermind...oh!

meh meh

LOL! Thes two are too funny!

I thought of one for Sauron: "I would still be alive today if it weren't for these pesky hobbits!" (not to original, eh?) [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Oooh, nice topic Meela!!

Let's see...well I have so many ideas for my own epitaph...how about....

"Traveller, at last I'm found,
And here I'm lying underground,
But do not cry, t'would be unfair,
For when I was live you did not care..."

I know, that's a bit depressing, so now something completely different...I think it would be so nice to see this as an epitaph...

"See ya! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] " Complete with smiley face.

As for Lord of the Rings characters...

Legolas:

"Killed by Rabid Fangirls...died happy..."

Gandalf:

"Three hundred lives of men I walked this earth and now I'm out of time."

Finwë:

Two of my sons went to Middle-earth and all I got was this lousy tombstone.

I finally thought of a good one for me. I'm always fantasizing about what would happen if I died young, so here's what would go on my tombstone. (It's a paraphrase of a quote from the Silm, and yes, I know that I'm morbid.)

No other of the Children of Iluvatar
has had joy so great,
though the time was brief.

Finduilas

Live Fast
...Die pretty.

Makes sense.

Is that copyrighted? Because I would *love* to use it.

I wasn't sure whether I should post this on here or on "top ten signs your addicted to the 'downs" so here goes:

The oddest thing happened last night. I was in bed almost asleep when I got up and went to my desk. I produced a pen and paper and scribbled down:
"sept.13,2003 www.barrowdowns.com
username:elfearz1
password: (then I wrote my password of course)

If ever I die
log on to say goodbye"

Even while I was writing this I had no idea why! Maybe it had something to do with reading this thread a few hours earlier, but it is still very strange indeed!

Mine:
Her last words: "I wonder where the mother bear is?"

Boromir:
"Killed by orcs. Stupid Orcs."

Legolas:
"Lost in action. Went on a shopping spree and never returned."

Meela, consider it yours.

mine would go:
the doctors said it couldn't be true
her parents they didn't know what to do
her life's a sad story this lover of art
that one should die of a broken heart
