 I didn't even say everything I could have! You are caught quoting Gollum ("tricksy, tricksy")... and don't even realize you are doing it. And, for an art calligraphy project, you quote the Hobbit. ("It does not do to leave a live dragon out of your calculations.") |

When you, as a native Engish speaking American, can quote Gollum in various accents: French, German, Spanish... whatever.
Now THAT is talent!

When you`re in the store looking for a birthday present for you little brother, and your mom asks how much something costs. You bend over to look and and reply, "Twelve ninety-six." And then with a sly grin add, "Very good year! Almost as old as I am!" Yes, my parents think I`m insane.

<-- Not quite Old Winyards, but kinda sorta maybe close enough
Quote:
Incidentally, the "bottles of the Old Winyards" would not be almost as old as Bilbo, were they from 1296, seeing as Bilbo was born in 2890... they'd be around 1594 years older than Bilbo... When I realized that it irritated me an obscene amount... I became unreasonably irate and began complaining to everyone within earshot that Peter Jackson had failed me. Fortunately, those within earshot were both LotR fans and no strangers to my madness, so I was not met with too much derision. |

Not wishing to be nitpicky, but perhaps Bilbo saying 'Almost as old as I am' is a form of self derision, as old people often say things like 'Two thousand years ago, when I was at school...' and stuff like that. At least that's what I assumed when I heard it, realised it was wrong, then thought about it for a bit...
Still that's just my opinion, I could be wrong... |
