HOW MANY TISSUES DO I BRING?
All of them.
Giles: Stop that, you two. Riley: He started it... Xander: He called me a bad name! I think
it was bad; it might have been Latin.
'Selfless'
LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".
Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".
A discussion of Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. If you're a pervy hobbit fancier, this is the place for you.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
I work for the only newspaper in America that gave RotK a bad review. It was so bad, we ran the New York Times review next to it, just to keep from getting lynched.

I suspect your reviewer of being contrary just to be ornery, victor.

I can't even.

Arty film critic who hates this kind of stuff, or someone who should know better? Doesn't matter, bring them to me so I can stomp out their reproductive organs. Any living children, brains to be dashed out. That critic must leave the gene pool, forthwith.
(What? I tried to be nice and restrained. Didn't work.)

Okay, see, I just home from watching it, and I (and my woefullly underprepared friends) got through my tissues long before the tears had stopped. My scarf will never be the same.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Raquel, the first thing on your inappropriate laugh list is first on my inappropriate HoYay list. That eyebrow raise is just. too. much.

See? Bring all of them.
Okay, really leaving for mail and shopping now.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
The HoYay was thick on the ground.
Although I do understand the perspective of people who complain that slashers simplify complex relationships by making them about sex. I do. This way, though, I get to enjoy it on two levels.
I mean, "You won't leave me, will you, Pippin?" and "Don't go where I can't follow!"

There was far too much for me to wrap my tiny brain around. I think for TTT it was on the third viewing that I really got it. So I'll have to watch it again, obviously. And again. Maybe Billy Boyd won't break me next time. I don't hold out much hope though.
There was such HoYay towards the end when the Hobbits were back in the Shire at the Green Dragon. Sam gets up to talk to Rosie and Merry and Pippin give each other a look as if to say, "Well that's sweet, but it's not our sort of thing."
