Start a rumor that the short orcs wanted to kill the tall orcs.

Sit back with some popcorn and observe.

1420!

Not really sure what I'd do with 200,000 orcs, but maybe:
1)Snatch a bunch of order forms and get them to buy my little sister's girl scout cookies
2)Subscribe to a pyramid scheme selling jewelry and get filthy rich
3)tell them I only have one toilet and the rest will have to go someplace else, but please not on my lawn.
4)scream, slam the door, hide in some dark corner downstairs and get my fiendish little brother to open the door.

What to do.... what to do....?

Well, first I'd scream like crazy and then start asking them all these questions like, "did you fight the fellowship" "if so, how did you survive"... and they'd be so confused that they wouldn't see me calling up my friend to get his girlfriend's army of penguins that will one day dominate the earth (long story, don't ask) and after they all die, I'd get my one ring and when I use it the witchking will come and kill me, but the hobbits will live on and rule the world!!!!!

If 200,000 orcs showed up on my doorstep...
1) If it were me I'd get the fetal position and cry
2) If I were my alter ego I'd kill them all in a blaze of glory
3) If I was without sleep for a few days I'd call upon Obi-Wan Kenobi and Gandalf and have them kill them in a blaze of glory

Thumbs up

I'd ask them if they thought they were paying too much for their car insureance...

OR

Say, "I'm not in at the moment; please leave a message after the beep... BEEP!"

I'd just ask them if they'd like to go swimming, and then take them to the inlet by the mud flats and let them go out there...(and if you know anything about mud flats, you know what happens next)

Serve them all tea and crumpets with bakeapple jam. Later on, we would have a rousing game of croquet followed by a lovely potluck supper in the garden.

Then I would slay them all with a chair. They are such impolite and messy houseguests.

Hmmm...either:

(1)Wait for them to start attacking me, then start yelling 'Come and see the inherent in the system!'

Or

(2)Convince the orcs that Sauron and Saruman are the Oligarchy and are trying to create a class structure such that they (Sauron and Saruman) could completely control the orcs and take advantage of everything. I would then band the orcs together under their new leader (me) and stage a revolt against the two oligarchs. Once this was over, I would have gotten rid of a major threat to (Middle?) Earth AND formed my own army of 200,000 orcs. Win-win!


(Edit) After all that hard work, I think I wouldn't be able to help but find myself wondering how they all fit on an 8x4-ish piece of wood.

If 200,000 orcs were on my doorstep....

I'd tell them to get the heck out of here and back to Angband before Morgoth flies into yet another rage and kills off half his orc army. If that didn't work I would have to call in the exterminator. Pesky orcs....

If I found 200 000 orcs on my front door I'd send them all to hell. Or rather to Mordor? But Lothlorien may be a "better" hell for orcs...hmmm...which one would it be? I'll just say oh go to hell and leave it up to them to figure out where's their hell.

That brings up an interesting question: where would they go?
Mordor
Lothlorien
Shelob's lair
Minas Tirith/Anor
Rivendell
Doriath
Anywhere near Gandalf
Anywhere near Glorfindel
Too near a Balrog
Close to an angry Nazgul
Fangorn Forest
Haudh-en-Elleth
Fingolfin's grave
Being anywhere under sunlight (unless they are the Uruk-hai)
Many more

*ahem* Go out the back door into the yard, start up the lawnmower, and charge them on the lawnmower wielding bow and arrow. I'd also take a moment to start my smartphone's mp3 music player up and play "I Am The Doctor" at maximum volume - since I'm sure anybody who's heard it would agree that it is the only appropriate music for such a feat.

Alternatively, I would curl up in a ball and scream like a little girl (something I am quite adept at). Yeah, probably that.

Tell them that I don't give charity, don't buy cookies, and don't participate in fundrasing.

Or,

Tell them that they are only 199, 999.

Or,

Take a piece of fake jewelry and throw it in their midst. See who will survive.

Cotton is a farmer with a bunch of boys and a girl; Maggot is a farmer with a bunch of dogs. Which do you mean, if either?
