How about when you see what was meant to be Glastonbury Tor and think "Party Tree"!

When just finishing the Trilogy, the next day you and your obsessed sister want to watch it all over again.
It's a challenge to NOT quote the movie while watching

When after watching the complete trilogy, the next day you and your obsessed sister (whom you turned) want to watch it again.

When it's a challenge NOT to quote the lines during the movie

You sign your name in Quenya on all of your school papers.

When the teachers you had last year have to tell this year's teachers whose paper it is.

You go bowling with friends and spend most of your time changing the names of the players on the computer/screen/thingy to spell the team names as random Tolkien stuff (though I am guilty of a few GoT references too). At one point our team was called O.R.C.S., and each of the letters was the first of a random word. Then we figured out how to use the space bar and thus put 2 letters in the slot of one (as 2 initials), and had stuff like

PM
IE
PR
IR
NY

But at that point people got really creative and started putting stuff I would not write on this forum. But it was hilarious.

It was fun. The best part of bowling, I should say.

When your father tells you to turn the G**d*mned movie off and watch something normal

When he tells you to make some potatoes, and you reply "Po-tay-toes, boil 'em mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew"

When he says he wants some fish and chips, and you say "Some nice lovely golden chips with a nice piece of fried fish"

When you start watching LOTR, and the upstairs neighbors start blaring "We Will Rock You" because you have the volume so loud that they can hear it. (To which I sang along and blared "We Are The Champions" after the song was over. Queen rules.)

When you actually come on here to tell random people all of that

Oh, and when your sister (crescendo.), who also likes LOTR, refuses to watch the movies with you because you're saying EVERY LINE along with the characters.

When you're asked to make a short funny James Bond themed New Year script, and you end up making the script so that there are a bunch of agent helpers who all the time bow and say "at your service", and in the process their agent-Elrond (

) glasses keep falling off their faces...

Hobbit New Year, everyone! What? Typo? No.
