Do Balrogs have swings? - Page 2 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Old Balrog is a-sneezing,
he also was a-retching,
set his house ablazing,
for his lack of aiming.

Well, I cannot prove whether balrogs have ears (and if I tried we might be here forever), so we'll just have to make do with what we have.

Anyways, assuming that Balrog ears in fact do exist and pretending they are somewhere located below the horns, I made a correction to my photo just for you.

Also, jumping to The Might's idea of spring, I decided to give our Balrog a pretty little flower.

'Cuz you know they ain't got a thing, if they ain't got that swing. The one in Moria had a whip, so he must have had that swing.

As Gandalf was a-thrusting,
and he was a-swinging
with his trusty Glamdring,
Balrog was a-dodging,
and the bridge it was a-cracking,
Balrog was a-falling,
note he was not flying,
although he was a-trying,
and he was a-failing,
for to be a-floating,
or to be a-gliding,
he needs to grow that wing thing.

Do balrogs have Menzies? Do they control him with strings? Are fiery demons secretly puppeteering the entire Liberal Democrat party?

Well, if Balrogs don't have swings, what about swongs?

If they are all lily-livered liberals then balrogs must have flip-flopping.

This has me wondering. If a balrog went to Runza, would he order Frings? Or would he prefer to go somewhere else for some buffalo wings?

Elmo · 11-27-2007, 04:50 AM

whatever was his yearning...

When balrogs visit their balrog friends, do they remember to ring the doorbell, or do they just barge in with no respect for the privacy of other balrogs?

That depends on the balance of the balrog's ying. and it's yang of course

Do balrogs have texting? (caught a glimpse of my cell and couldn't resist)
