thanks Halfwise, now I dont need to read the book. phew!

and still too long to read.

Unfortunately I think you need to have read the original to get any of the humor in the summary.

THINGOL: You can have her if you ... BRING ME A SHINY!
BEREN: Worth a shot.

This is hysterical, but only if you know what it's talking about.

Pretty much

Once again, you need to read the S. to get the multitude of jokes. Maybe just skip to the last section: Of the Third Age and the Rings of Power

I did read your comment you know. I do, sometimes. Read things that is

NIENNA: I'm sad.-

EARENDIL: Wow, planetary orbit!-

That always got me, too

ELVES: Fine.

Hahahah its funny because the Elves are fine
Fine at things
Hahahaha

Illuvatar: you're out of the band.
Lol! I could imagine this as a quick sketch played in my head. Reminds me of Mel Brooks's History of the World.

Jews in Spaaaaaaace!

Yeah, haha! That song reminds of the Men in Tights song.

Never liked that song.

But why?

Just don't --- and that's as logical as it gets with me... Some call it a 'taste' thing, I guess...

Nah, it's cool I was just kidding.

Orwell wrote:Never liked that song.

Strikes a little too near home base, does it?

I mean it's perfectly okay, we're accepting of all types here.
