Well, this one is kind of weird, but then, I am a weird fellow.

Whenever someone asks me a question that I don't know tha answer to, I sometimes reply: "I don't have any answers for you, Frodo." in that desperate, anguish-filled Gandalf tone. People who aren't around me much look at me weird because I just called them Frodo, but most of my friends and family just ignore me.

Today as I was leaving work (it was late at night), I started whispering to myself, "We now face the long dark of *insert town name.* (Why is it that they make the employees park the farthest away from the store? Ahem...) Be on your guard. There are older and fouler things than orcs in the deep places of *insert town name.*"

I also use, "Which way is Mordor, Gandalf? Left or right?" when I'm driving.

Online to greet people, I often say "Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo."

I am guilty of having quoted the "It's a dangerous business going out your door..." one by Bilbo quite often. Along with "Are you frightened? Not nearly frightened enough..." which to someone who is not a Lord of the Rings fan is rather frightening

I used to say "Bless my bark" a lot of times last spring. It freaked people out. One of my friends even asked me once: "Since when do you have a bark?"
