The two rings? A cake?! *has a good long laughing fit*

My favorite encounter was with my brother. I was watching FotR, which he has never seen all the way through, and he walked in. The gist of it follows:

Bro: "Aren't these guys trying to destroy that ring?"

Me: "Yeah."

Bro: "Then why is that guy trying to steal it?"

Me: "Because his city is going to fall and he thinks the ring will save it."

Bro: "... a ring? What's that gonna do?"

Me: "It's a Ring of Power."

Bro: "So? When you put it on you become invisible. How's that gonna save your city?"

Me: *getting irritated* "Go away. You're making me miss Boromir."
