Pointless Musings

Yeah, just like the title suggests. And besides, there are certain people that count on me for their day's entertainment :P

1.) Phantom of the Opera: I've noticed a good portion of my friendslist has been wibbling over the movie. People, I sure as fuck hope you know that PotO has been around a long time, and like this is NOT a new phenom :P I'm sorry, but I can't get excited over something that's missing two key elements; Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman. 'Nuff said.

2.) The asshats across the street whose Christmas tree is still visible from the window: Take the fucker down, you lazy sons o' bitches. It's bad enough it's stilll up, but to plug the sucker in?

3.) Kittens that prefer empty toilet paper rolls over 'real' toys: I could make a real killing marketing this :P

4.) On hating the snow and cold: I live in Michigan and I H-A-T-E both. I'm up there in smarts with the dumbshit 'I'm going to leave the Christmas decorations up all year' neighbors :P

5.) On laughing at the idjits smoking out in the freezing cold: *dons nametag* Hello! I'm now one of those fucking idjits! Ah, irony.

More later,

Pointless Tolkien Musings

Thanks go to froda_baggins for reminding me to chastise the latest bunch of ignorant fools who claim 'to know, not be familiar with' Tolkien's writings.

I'm fairly certain a good deal of people on my friendslist are Tolkien purists, but if you are not one of them, you are welcome to skip this post.

WARNING! themostepotente is not responsible for random acts of vomitting due to Tolkien abuse.

1.) Since when are the Undying Lands Club-motherfucking-tropicana? You go. You stay. It is not a fucking resort.

2.) No, one of the Silmarils was NOT found in a gumball machine. Yes, I know -- the Silmarillion was a tough read. Yes, I've forgotten some facts myself. But if you are going to fic the whereabouts of the Silmarils and don't know, you may as well say that's where one was found -- a gumball machine.

3.) Minas Morgul and Minas Tirith are NOT one in the same.

4.) Radagast the Brown was the third of the three wizards. Gandalf and Saruman being the other two.

5.) And speaking of Gandalf, his name in Elvish is 'Mithrandir' meaning 'Grey Wanderer.'

6.) Celeborn did NOT accompany Galadriel to Valinor. He lingered in Middle Earth.

7.) Elrond does have twin sons. Their names, HOWEVER, are not Rumil and Orophin. Those are the names of Haldir's fucking brothers. Oy vey.

I gotta stop for now, I think. I'm getting riled just typing this.

Where did I find this garbage? Oh yes, a LotR writer's group that came, are you ready for this, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
