Bombadil loved splashing in puddles so much no one had the heart to tell him it wasn't raining

Those damn puppies have had the toilet roll again Goldberry.
 

Loo Loo skip to the Loo
Loo Loo skip to the Loo

Loo Loo skip to the Loo
And take that toilet roll to.

As a Monty Python fan, Bombadil just loved to start the day with his own Silly Walk.

(Tom: 'Ho there, Frodo lad,
Did you forget Tom's warning?
Putting on the shiny Ring,
Vanishing in the morning
Out in the Forest Old,
Under the Willows,
Old Tom will show you now
Warnings are for heeding,
I'll just grab your curly head
& slam it into this sapling!'

Frodo: 'Gnn, gnn, gnn!! Its not a sapling, its a bloody tree! And your poetry doesn't even scan!'

Tom: 'Slam! Slam! Slam! Slam! Slam!
Ring a dong dillo!
Old Tom Bombadil
And the sound of Hobbit on Willow....'

...
 

Tom really has no idea what he is doing or where he is.

"Father Abraham, seven sons he had, seven sons had father abraham, and they never laughed and they never cried all they did was go like this"

or

Tom could never get the hang of patting his head and rubbing his tummy at the same time.

or

The dangers of Prozac

Tom discovers that these boots were made for walkin', and that's just what they'll do.

Tom loved his pet giant caterpillar. Every day, he'd take it for a leaf-ride through the forest. Nobody had the heart to tell him that it had died three weeks ago.

Pallando shows why he & Alatar were dispatched into the East by the Valar - a very long way into the East.

You think walking a tightrope is hard?
 

Bombadil preforms his world-famous "Skipping On A Scroll" act.

Here comes jolly Tom Bombadillo, bearing aloft the dead swan he found floating on the Withywindle. Oh dear, he has not heard of the DEFRA bird flu helpline.

Playing off of narfforc...

Bombadil just loved going tping...

"Hey doll, merry roll, wrap it in the trees! Wind it, wind it, wind it, wind it, or toss it to the breeze!"

Tom Bombadil to the creator of this picture:
"Very good. Almost like a mirror. And now you'll repaint it so that it doesn't look as if I was junkie-version of Santa Clause. Seriously, yellow boots? Look at them, this is ocre!"

Hey, I think I photoshopped this a while back...
 

Middle-earth's first pizza delivery service:

TB: Hi-ho, domin-O, who ordered our Water Lily Lover?

Or...

Some addresses are just so hard to find...this will be the third time he's passed the fungus steps to R. Squirrel's house, 1420 Withywindle Path.

Hum...
 

The only reason Tom had to 'hop along' all the time was because he'd broken his leg.

OR

Bombadill: That Old Man Willow! I'll sing his roots off! Wait! He's got wheels?

:p

Tom Cruise, the later years: I'm in love!!

What most people don't realize is that this man doesn't have a beard. That's chest hair sticking out of his shirt.

The lily vendor at the Mt. Zoom Challenge cheers on his favorite racers. :D

Tom: Get your Stuffed Hedgehogs here! Only £4.50!

Tom: "Hey dol! Goldberry! Sniff my boot, would you, my flower?"

Goldberry: "Hmm, it smells quite bad, Tom my dear. What is it?"

Tom: "I think I've stepped in something Huan the Hound left behind."

"Just tell your parents you were skipping around they' understand: Responsibility the anti-song"

Or

Bombadil finally beats old man willow at poker

Old Tom moans like a very old man
His Jackets to tight, and his boots are tan
He can't skip far now, since he's got fatter
His boots don't fit, and he's mad as a hatter.

Tom's off home to his pretty Goldigger
She's very nice, with a really good figure
Down by a pond, that's where he caught her
Happy Old Tom, and The Glibber-woman's Daughter.

Old Tom smiles, but he's not happy
Goldigger's broody, so he has to wear a nappy (Diaper)
That's why his walk is so very funny
He skips along like the Easter Bunny.

ever seen the movie 'Hitch?'
 

Hitch (in the background): "Don't ever...do that again, Tom."

Hum de hum
 

Tom: Hay come merry dol! Ring a ding Dillo

Sam: Quick! A new picture before we all go insane!

Continuing the theme at the moment...

http://www.tednasmith.com/silmarilli...nd_Gothmog.jpg

Gothmog: Give me my wings back!

Fingon: I thought it was just a shadow!

Gothmog: Don't start that again!

Fingon: "Dude, your backhair is on fire. Not only is that dangerous, it's disgusting."

Gothmog: "Yeah right, you expect me to fall for that one?"

The Obvious:

Its Gandalf the Grey uncloaked! :eek:

OR

Gothmog: Give me my trousers back!

The real reason for the rebellion of Ainur who became Morgoth's most terrible servants - Eru had demanded some Castrati to sing in the Ainulindale. This explains the bad temper of the Balrogs, their high pitched voices, lack of facial hair & their odd warcry:

'O! for the wings, for the wings of a dove....'

(Hence the later confusion over Balrog 'wings')

EDIT

I owe the inspiration for this caption to Lalwende - of course, the first thing she noticed about the Balrog.....

I'll get you for killing and discoloring the man with the yellow hat (Curious George)!



*look beneath Fingon*

Fingon's boast about "easily killing that beast" centred around the assumption that Balrogs were man-high. "I'm sure I read that somewhere!" he wailed.

Yet another dissatisfied customer at the salon...

"A blow-dry has nothing to do with a blow torch!"

(Inspired by the balrog's tail)

When Minas Tirith had to be evacuated because of a "big and mean rats" invasion, the Rohirrim laughed. Now that they have seen how big and mean those rats really are, they wish they had listened.

Mr Angry from Angband
 

It's no good losing your temper and getting hot under the collar with me, I was was just sent to give you this toothpick, because you've got a bit of my friend stuck in your fangs, he's not been feeling to good since you bit off both his arms.

B nasty
 

The latest B movie to be released is Monsters of Middle-Earth meet The Coneheads.

Conehead The Barber and The Difficult Customer.

The new sport in Middle-earth. Extreme Marshmallow Toasting. Many would die.

Among the tragic tales of hapless courage which have come down to us from those days was Fingon's leading of the Noldor into battle in woollen armour...

left hand, pointer finger...
 

Not only was Gothmog big, mean, and scary - he also was in the Guinness Book of World Records for longest fingernail ever.

for those industrial sized crochet needles on the top of the balrog's head.

Fingon: "Hello, my name is Fingon. You killed my father's half-brother [Feanor]. Prepare to die."

ANGRY ANGLO-SAXON PROFESSOR: Begone foul Norman-helmeted anachronism! 1066 was the greatest cultural disaster ever to befall Britain! Grr!

The Noldorian National Hymne
 

Clearly shows how the Noldor was unable to accept the fact that they lost on the battle-field.

King Fingon stood by the lofty beast
in mist and smoke;
His sword was hammering so fast,
thru Gothmogs Helm and Brain it passed;
Then died each hostile beast and scamp,
in mist and smoke.
"Fly" shouted they, "for shelter fly!
of the Noldor's Fingon who can defy,
of the Noldor's Fingon who can defy,
the power?"

(i know scamp does not really work, but I don't have time to think of something else)

Frodo had warned everyone they wouldn't like him when he was angry, but they listen? of course not
