How about

You'll Look a Little Lovelier Each Day with Fabulous Pink A Little Green.

Finduilas · 02-02-2008, 09:42 AM

Mine was horrible!

Every kiss begins with Finduilas.

I'll have to try again...

Typed in Fin,

Turn loose the Fin.

Better, but still doesn't fit me....

Thank you, I'm glad people are having as much fun as I am. I agree with Legate, the slogans for The Barrowdowns and WW are so appropriate.

Hmm...I was greeted with another appropriate one about The Barrowdowns:

There aint no party like The Barrowdowns party

"Snap! Crackle! Gandalf!"

I'm trying to figure out what this one means...

"The Denethor of a new generation"...anyone?

And I'm definitely going to have to disagree with this one:

"Smart. Beautiful. Shelob."

Nogrod · 02-02-2008, 10:24 AM

There seems to be some handy helpers around there as well... but on which side?
You Press the Silmarillion, We Do the Rest.

Gandalf at the jewellery:
Pardon Me, Do You Have Any Grey Silmarillion?

Or try the following line to charm the one you've a crush on and you'll never get to hang around others than Tolkien lovers...
I Like the Silmarillion in You.

This time, I was greeted by:

Nobody does it like The Barrowdowns.

And inspired by Nogrod's effort, I tried...

The Hobbit stays sharp till the bottom of the glass.

And since I haven't seen The Might around here, sorry Miggy, but I could not resist putting your name in:

Gonna be a while? Grab a Miggy.*
Sounds like a slogan that should hover over the Quiz Room when one is there alone and no one seems to be posting

Another one:

Double the pleasure, double the Chat Skwerl!

Not sure whether one isn't sufficient already...

EDIT: Now reading it, I recall there used to go (around here at least) a commercial on the snack named "Twiggy"... hm... maybe...

Boromir88 · 02-02-2008, 10:39 AM

What can Barliman Butterbur do for you?...I doubt he could do even the simplest tasks for you.

Nobody does it like Eru...got that one right

Always after me Laconic Loreman...I'll tell you all now back away.

You have proven me wrong Ms Smart. Beautiful. Clever. Shelob.

Mithalwen · 02-02-2008, 10:41 AM

It should rather have been "Snap! Crackle! Denethor!"

Rikae · 02-02-2008, 10:19 AM

Bwahaha! The one that greeted me was:
"Come to Life, Come to The Barrowdowns"

How inappropriate!

For me:
"Kills all known Rikae - dead"
Well, if my role is known, I suppose I can expect to be killed.

"Unzip a Rikae"
No comment.

"It needn't be hell with Rikae"
Then again,it probably will be.

"Splash Rikae all over"
And I thought my death narrations were gruesome...

"Kids will do anything for Rikae"
Pfft.

Edit:
"Strong Enough for a Man, Made for a Mellifluous Maia."

Mithalwen · 02-02-2008, 10:20 AM

This is not your father's Mithalwen I should jolly well hope not - I am my own person.
The coolest Mithalwen on Ice They obviously didn't see me failing to Ice Skate last week
Kills all known Mithalwen dead - Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek
Cleans right round the Mithalwen - now I am an euphemism..
It's different in a Mithalwen - How very dare you...
Cleans your floor without Mithalwen Just as well - Mithalwen hates cleaning floors...
Hand built by Mithalwen Not a great recommendation...
It it live or is it Mithalwen? We're all dead here ... and I perk up after a dose of caffeine
Come to Life, Come to Mithalwen. Getting better ...and these are sig-worthy

Wouldn't you rather be Mithalwen?
All Mithalwen, all the time.

Boromir, this is addictive!
