There is only one for me;

Hot Balrog Lovin' by doug*platypus. I just about fell of my seat laughing when I saw that.

HerenIstarion · 08-07-2004, 02:10 PM

Hot Balrog Lovin'

Amanaduial the archer · 08-07-2004, 04:30 PM

Another one which I saw today which made me smile (if in a sort of vaguely confused way) was Monkeys eat bananas, right? Oh come on, tell me you weren't intrigued...

I noticed that one too today. I laughed.

I just had to click on it...I couldn't resist.

Monkeys eat bananas, right?

It was one of the first nominees on the page 1 of the current thread

Though the title is a bit more promising than what its contents fulfill
