Do you'all smell something burning? Because I am. Um, literally.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Am I the only one here besides Allyson who won't use LOTR as an excuse to do anything? Because I wouldn't. I liked it okay, but I don't even need to see it again, much less have the best version of it. And this is probably more shocking to some of y'all than the dirtiest porn, but I totally watched the whole Fellowship without looking at the Extras once. (puts on flameproof suit) I feel better, finally being honest about that. Even though it might be like running into an Entourage forum naked yelling "Slash sucks!" Dude. Even I can see the Vince/E without really looking for it.
... It's been so long since I was here that I had to pick a new username because I memfaulted on what I used.
How sad is that?
(It's Elisabeth. I live.)
Erikaj, I'm glad there are people who HATE Tolkien and his stuff (much less people who are kinda "meh", like you).
Just means there's more for me to acquire.

email a stompy, they'll help
I like Tolkien, but just not on the acquiring stuff level. Much like Star Trek.
I just realized that in my book there is not an expedition with 9 people. It wasn't 9 originally, it was 11, but I removed two characters. Now it's just like LOTR only Frodo is a chick, Sam is a psychopath, and the ring is just a ring forged by some dude in the city.
Yep, more "Precious!" for y'all, SH. Still like that better than Twihards, though
Tolkein = ugh. Twihards are at least ridiculously.... well, idiotic.
Back from Santa Barbara today. I don't have very much summer break left. It's making me feel panicky.
Tolkein = ugh.
I consider it a milestone in my emotional maturity that, upon seeing that phrase in print, I didn't start to indignantly sputter.
I do think that most Tolkien *fans* are a lot less contemptible than Twilight *fans*, though. And we sparkle less. Thank all the gods above and below.

I took my desktop computer to a friendly local computer repair place that looks clueful AND comes recommended. They think they can have it up and at 'em tomorrow....
