When you just realise your party with Luthien and Beren wont work because they are dead.
When you go to the beach and spend ages looking for the Silmaril of Maglor. |
Earlier on today I got out my Lotr action figures, built Helm's Deep out of videos and Ithilien out of pot plants, and re-enacted various scenes from The Two Towers.
I got some pretty weird looks. |
That quiz said I was like Gimli. [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img] [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img] Okay..... tha's weird....
Abedithon le, ~*~Aranel~*~ |
Oh wow, I'm begining to frighten myself.
last night (I just remembered this) I started talking about a character as if I knew them and I was there. It took me a good while to realise that I wasn't actually there. |
I really frightened myself last night.
Apparently, I was talking in my sleep, and according to my 8-year-old brother, I was speaking in fluent Sindarin (or what appeared to be fluent Sindarin to him), and talking to Aragorn about his upcoming wedding to Arwen, and apparently, I was also referring to myself as Eowyn, which was just strange. The weird part is, I'm not fluent in Sindarin! Heck, the only Sindarin I understand is a little of the language spoken in the movie! Not enough to talk about weddings! |
Number One: You carry around a horn that you blow occasionally and say "The Horn of Gondor speaks! Shut up!"
Number Two: You play 'Orc Orc Uruk-Hai' at small children's birthday parties. Number Three: You follow your sister to movies starring Orlando Bloom [z.b. Pirates of the Caribbean] just to see if he mentions a fellowship or a ring of power [thank heavens for Johnny Depp]. [/B]Viva la Gondor, Love ya Elanor Took![/B] "Ai! Ai! A Balrog! A Balrog is come!" J'adore les ecureuils! |

Wow Finwe, that is very strange about your Sindarin-sleep-talking. Really cool, though! Usually I get Boromir or Galadriel on those personality quizzes, but I often get Gandalf and several others, also. It usually depends on my mood and the quality of quiz I take. |
Heheh... I scared two sophomores in my seminary class so bad yesterday. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] I was explaining the difference between Tengwar and Sindarin, and they just didn't get it. I was getting pretty loud about it, too. There are now two traumatized sophomores wandering around my school somewhere.... [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]
Man, that sleep-talking thing is pretty cool. I wish I did that... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] Curse my boring little mind! Oh well, I did have that Helm's Deep dream. That was very cool. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Abedithon le, ~*~Aranel~*~ |

Sindarin sleep-talking..... hmmmm..... -I went outside last week to look at Mars (this was the 28th, so I think it was at its brightest, correct me if I'm wrong), and it was really cool. It looked sort of like Earendil sailing through the heavens in Vingilot. So I stood out there in the middle of the night saying Aiya Earendil Elenion Acalima and A Elbereth Gilthoniel....! 'Twas fun! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] -When you talk to yourself in your head as if you were Gollum (sometimes not even on purpose!). So you'll just be walking around thinking about something, and then "We can't get this refrigerator door open, oh no, precious, we can't. Ah! There it is, precious, there it is. Do we have pizza, precious, do we have nice pizza? Give Smeagol good pizza..." or something along those lines. -When you pride yourself on the fact that everything you've ever posted on this thread is something that you've done ar are pretty sure that you've done or are going to do (in other words, none of it has been made up). Everyone who took the quiz, would you mind posting the results? I'm interested..... And Meela: Take the quiz! See if you get Denethor! (Or Beregond, or Imrahil, or Elladan, or Isildur, or Boromir, or.....) Well, here's my result (oh, no, now you're going to know all about me!): Denethor, Son of Ecthelion, Lord and Steward of Minas Tirith People like you are rare. Unfortunately the closest person is Denethor. His obsession with knowing the future and suspicion of others is characteristic. Everything that happens is important and you do not want to miss any of it. Others often look to you for courage, leadership, and wisdom. Social interaction energizes you. The more people the merrier. You have a tendency to introspection. While providing compassion and being considerate, you may have the tendency of being soft-hearted or even "too emotional" You like keeping your options open. Closure is probably not one of your strong suits. The Orcs display the evil side of this personality with their lengthy torture methods. Traits: Empathic, benevolent, looking to the future. On the dark side you could be sadistic. |
today, i got some of the weirdest looks i ever had. [looks proud at this] But i don't get it, all i did was just standig for a window in a classroom, and when i saw some crows, i dived to the ground shouting 'crebain from dunland, Hide!'people looked really weird when i stood up after a minute or two and asked why they did't hide themselves. they told me i even scared some first-years (grin)

Took the quiz again. I was a bit more honest this time, and this is what I got:
"You are most like Boromir, Heir of Denethor, Captain of the White Tower You are good at winning others' confidence and not shy at telling others what to do. Social interaction energizes you. The more people the merrier. You have good observational skills. In your desire for clarity in life, you may have the tendency of being remote or even "heartless". You like keeping your options open. Closure is probably not one of your strong suits. Like Boromir, you are not content to sit on the sidelines while the action takes place around you. Traits: Open minded, easy going, persuassive, optimistic about the future. On the dark side you could be exploitative and an opportunist." So would that make Meela my adopted mom? [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] j/k. I love you, Meela! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Abedithon le, ~*~Aranel~*~ |
A very good quiz indeed, Luthien_Tinuviel! I got Frodo:
Quote:
In band we are playing music from LotR! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I'm so excited. But that may partially be because my mom is the band teacher at my high school, and I practically forced her to let us play LotR. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] Today, my French teacher said he couldn't stand to watch LotR because "it was three hours of the most boring, never-ending chase scene." [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img] That made me very angry. What's worse, he said he loved the Harry Potter movies, which were not that great compared with the books, and definitely not as good as the LotR movies! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] Well, different tastes, I guess...I suppose it's not for everybody. Anyway, that wasn't exactly on topic, but oh well.

my english teacher once said he thought LotR was too long!! I felt like going up there and shouting "IT"S TOO SHORT, DAMMIT!!!!" in his face. he also said he was more of a "harry Potter guy."...hmpf... |
just took that personality test, here's my result:

OK. Here is what it says about me:
The Dwarves As the halls of Moria show, Dwarves like building and inventing. Curiosity is one of your strong points as it allows you to think of better ways to acheive goals. You may try to outwit the system of you get bored or annoyed with it. Social interaction energizes you. The more people the merrier. You have a tendency to introspection. In your desire for clarity in life, you may have the tendency of being remote or even "heartless". You like keeping your options open. Closure is probably not one of your strong suits. As the foil to Aragorn, Sauron clearly embodies the evil side of this personality. Traits: Pragmatic, autonomous, ingenious, resolute. On the dark side you could desire power and domination. OK. I'm a dwarf but somewhat like Aragorn. Yay! To the last part! Aragorn is my fave character You know you're obsessed when - You know the exact minute in TTT when Legolas slides down the steps on a shiled. (Battle at Helm's Deep). - You deicide the Elves are smiling on you (and frequently tell peole so) cos ROTK is released on the same day as your birthday and much to the horror of your non-obsessed friends decide to have 2 themed parties. One for your b/day and one for the movie release. I like the idea of having your room decorated LOTR style. However, my mum won't let me paint it again (I had it done recently before I came obsessed). Tis light- bright green and lilac. I'm guessing a wood of some sort. What do you reckon? |
My room is also green and lilac. I intend to redecorate in a more Lotr style soon, though.
Green and lilac... yeh, I can imagine a gorgeous sunlit wood, the floor carpeted with lilac flowers. Perhaps somewhere in the Shire, or an Elven woodland. If you wanted a more woodland effect, you could get a few pieces of old sponge and some different shades of green paint (sample pots are usually enough), and and sponge a leafy, woodland effect all over the green walls. Well, that's what I might do, anyway [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] |
I got the Dwarves.
Er, what? I'm an elf, here! Oh well! Edit: Hey look, I'm a Haunting Spirit. I swear I was a pile of bones before... [ September 06, 2003: Message edited by: Feared Half-Elf ] |
i was aragorn. i always seem to be aragorn on every quiz i take. hahahaha, i'm so happy.
- you read this thread and decide that you are 'not obsessed enough' so you vow to be more obsessive in the future - you print off 70 pages of sindarin to learn a language that a lot of people don't even know exists |

When your mom gives you a necklace with gold leaves on it for your birthday because she thinks it looks elvish (My birthday was on the 3rd [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]). I convinced her to read LotR, and she just finished it about a week ago.
I'm so sad. I just started in a new school, and I have sooo much homework. This is the first time in almost a week that I've gotten to go on the Downs-- I think I was starting to go into withdrawal when I couldn't. Plus, I got TTT as a birthday present on Wednesday, and I didn't even have time to watch it untill last night [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] . I'm so sick of school, and I've only had 4 days of it (only 175 more days to go...) |

Woo! I'm finally making an Elvish dress [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] *squee* I found a pattern I liked, and I bought fabrics and stuff...so I'm gonna make one! I shall have to post a picture when I'm done... -When every item of clothing in your wardrobe relates to LotR *and these are my hobbit pants, and this is my Elvish shirt...* -When you have to make up an element for science class and decide to name yours in Elvish *heh heh* -When you do your Elvish homework before your school homework *Hey, I have my priorities!* -When you enjoy your Elvish homework so much that you more of it than you're required to do. As you can see, I'm taking a course in Elvish ^_^ I'm doing the Sindarin course at Council of Elrond It's great fun! I'm enjoying it [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] |

ok... now for mine: I was getting some miles in for the WTR and I started pretending I was actually walking to Rivendell. (I.e. talking to chars and such) I got some strange looks. A local politician was speaking on the news and I was upset with what he was saying so I started yelling things like "son of snakes" in Elvish. I am now convinced that I really do have the one ring, because I had the one I always wear around my neck and I was laying on the bed and my cat hopped up onto it and came over and was sort of entranced by it. And what was wierd was it wasn't hanging down or swinging, so it's not like he wanted to play with it and instead of batting at it he tried to grab it with his claws. (whew long run-on I hope that made sense) |

(EEEP! I am a hoarder! I hardly ever throw anything away. Dark side... [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] ) |
haha, my mum is a librarian. but i had to force her to read the book and i could tell she really liked it because her only complaint was 'i thought after teh ring was destroyed it was all wrapped up a bit quickly and i wanted to know more about the characters) *coughcough* appendices.
but yeah here we go: -when your family takes a year to read the book (literally) and you continually have to hold yourself back from giving away the end, or otherwise have to lie to cover up the fact that you gave away the end - you go into a shop today and marvel over the action figures of saruman, wormtongue, frodo and gollum. you vow to have aragorn and gandalf despite the fact they are utterly nasty - you DID want a whole load of dvds for your birthday because you are an enormous film fan and want to be a film critic/columnist in a newspaper but instead you decide you want nenya and arwen's necklace -if you don't get nenya and arwen's necklace, you decide that you will buy them with your birthday money |

I got the greatest "weird look" yesturday! I was buying the fabric and pattern for my Elvish dress and my sister's friend was like "Oh, it's pretty! Is it for Halloween?" I just smiled and was like, "No. It's just...to wear." She gave me a look that said plainly, "Normal people don't dress like that" [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] It was great. Mmmm... Obsession is good. |
Hehe, Amarantha Daisy [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
You know you are obsessed with LotR (well not directly, but whatever) when you write "TREES" on your hand, partly to be like Dom and partly just to get weird looks. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] I used to collect buttons, and various other sorts of things, but now I think my biggest collection is weird looks. If people ask what my hobby is, I can say that it is collecting weird looks. That would generate some weird looks right there.

...when you go to the store and the first place you go is to the toys section and you gasp in dismay as some kids (or maybe adults? who knows) had the audacity to leave the lotr section a wreck. So of course I cleaned and organized it. That got a few looks. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Also when I was done I patrolled around a while to make sure no one messed it up again and this young couple was holding up Eomer and saying "Is it him or that other blonde dude that he likes" I cringed.... Then the oddest thing happened today my sister came home from work and told me a girl who worked their too and went to the same school as me told her(my sister) there was a girl at school that looked like her (my sisters and I look an awful lot alike) that is obsessed with faeries (*sigh* it's elves darn it!) and goes by a funky name (my elvish name) hehe [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] My sister told me the girls name and I had never heard of her. Goes to show you how noticeable my obsession is. Quote:

Wow, how did everyone write so much in one day? Is that wightly possible? I had such a good post, but it got lost (I used too many smileys, and pressing back deleted everything I had. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] ) So I'll have to re-post tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be able to re-capture my thoughts.

When your late for class, and everybody else has sat down, you run into the classroom and tell the teacher: "Sorry I'm late sir but the orcs have stormed Brithombar and Eglarest!" You then proceed to sit down and open your books.

*snork* [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I wanna be late to class now! ^ ^ Of course, I'll never remember what the orcs stormed... - -;;;;; (& I call myself a Tolkien fan! shame!)

Well I guess I get more obsessed each day.
One day I got a TTT poster and renovated part of my room just so that it could hang on the right place! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] With the personality test I got Frodo [ September 09, 2003: Message edited by: Lathriel ] |
You know when you're obsessed when you start dating an Elf. (I swear, my b/friend is an Elf!!!! Of course, he's much too skinny, but he's got the silky black hair, 6'2" height, perfectly pale skin, and the greatest greenish-brown eyes.) He looks like a Noldo. The only down-side is, I'm 5'2", so the height difference is a bit ludicrous.

*You write in Dwarf runes every chance you get, even at school. *You duel imaginary orcs with your sword. *You were just nick-named "Frodo", by your best friend (That just happened to me today at lunch. Weird really, as I am a girl and all). |
