Haha

I received that one as well and had to accept it just because it had such a good name... (Me, an egoist? No way!)

When you wonder why you've only posted as little posts as you have, when there are so many shiny new threads.

When you get depressed when no one ever answers your posts. When you feel that the only friends you have are online and when you say 'my friends' you'e reffering to the other BDers.

When someone starts telling about their dreams and says "I dreamt that Iron Maiden had a gig in metro...", your first reaction is: "IronMaiden? Who's that? Should I know her? Is she a newbie?"

Also, if you happily write "wolves" when you should write "vowels"...

When you read the Children of Húrin and think that Mormegil written with a capital "M"... just... looks... wrong.

Oh yes... and it seems odd that Nogrod is a place and that they keep missing the 88 off Boromir .......

That is not a sign of addiction to the downs. . . It is a sign of lack of education! Iron Maiden is soo retro, soo cliche, which in turn means that they are soo cool! ! !

When I read in my history books I constantly read Nogrod instead of Novgorod.

Also the fact that I can walk around with a big smile on my face all day, just because some random downer had a dream in which I appeared.

Very true. If I remember right, morm said somewhere that he wanted to capitalise the first M. I thought it would look very odd.
