When you dress up on History Day as a thinly veiled copy of the Two Towers archer elves...
When you have read so much LOTR lore that you actually get a headache reading about any other fantasy world! I envy the day I could remember all the different magic spells in Harry Potter (sigh).
You hear any person bad-mouth Tolkien books or Tolkien and start writhing on the ground in pain going "Aure Entuluva! Day shall come again!"
When even the local computer geeks call you a nerd darn-it!
