A really, really bad sign is when the BD seem to even overpower Tolkien himself in your head. I caught myself having a problem to determine whether the following sentence doesn't have more than one subject: "In the mountains only the Dwarves delved Belegost and Nogrod."

I am in our school play this year... and my character is called McHabe's Runner... I can't help but think McCaber when I see that...

It is called "McCaber's Rune" !?

Not Rune, but I can see the resemblance! I hope that I don't forget to forget the resemblance before the show, otherwise you never know what will happen!

When you become worried that your last good post on any thread was more than a month ago!

You're playing a Facebook app called Nations and you receive the situation: "A mass murderer is loose in [insert nation name] and the local police force is having trouble catching the culprit. Do you..."

And one of the options is: "Assemble a lynching mob and temporarily deputize them with the orders to find the murderer at all costs?"

Of course the first thought that comes to mind is, "Wow, that is just like WW!"
