Sorry. I speak for the books. That will be my new motto.

Some of my embarrasing LOTR moments were when I started speaking about it, giving examples from that book or just saying an idea, to a bunch of people who have no clue what I'm going on about.

And there was this story with me carrying a ginormous volume around at school last year: it was LOTR, TH, The Sil, and COH all together in one book. Worse though, it was a Russian translation that I borrowed from the library. Since it didn't fit in my bag I carried it around in my hands and everyone had to stare at me. It was: a) a humungous book, b) a Russian book c) a (non-text-) book, which is not a very common thing to see someone carry with them all day, d) from the library (who borrows books from the library these days?).

At least my reputation as a bookworm got established right then and there. But really, I could have done well enough without all the questions and stares.

Yes, you do.

And I meant that High School students in my school hardly ever get anything from the library, or even read anything that is not homework... well, we don't do that either. I don't do that... I read non-compulsory books instead...

And "Blasphemy!" will be mine.

"Who's Tom Bomb - " "Blasphemy!"

"Who's Glorfind - " Blasphemy!"

"Balrogs have wi - " "Blasphemy!"

And I borrow books from the library all the time. Well, I used to. I don't get to go as much now . . .

Back on topic, I was discussing a certain Bible verse (I forget which one) and ended up trying to explain an archaic use of a certain word. Of course, my mind went blank and the only example I could think of was from Lord of the Rings. I got some funny looks from everyone but one friend who is also a Tolkien fan, but it was worth it.

I also shout "You cannot pass!" at random times (usually succeeded by "Ow! My [enter body part here]!" as the "Balrog" decides that yes, he actually can pass).
