Elrohir thanks you- or would, if he was not still unconscious from the fake Elvish-induced headwalling.
Atton: ![]()
Why, thank you! ![]()
Oh, dear Valar. I do hope Herenya is not related to Rosa.
Rugan says they were running a buy one, get one free sale, so you may have the extra one if you'd like it. Apparently he has already repaired ours. <_<
Oh, that explains it, then. I was beginning to wonder- especially as the Suethor confessed she's never read the books. Not that we couldn't figure that out on our own, mind you.
*deadpan* Nothing is more exciting than the kindergarten scene from Silent Times, except perhaps the Retarded Baby Legolas scenes.
Why, thank you! It comes with going to college in a town of 2,000 people where the only entertainment is Walmart. We have to be creative.
I did, indeed! Glad someone else loves that, too. :lol:Thanks, Jules! I'm so glad this one is over... |

Boromir and I sympathize and wish him well. We've passed out from reading badfics before and we know what it's like.
Nah, Rosa wasn't Galadriel's daughter. Rosa was the daughter of the King and Queen of Syria, which is an Elf-kingdom in Middle-earth, according to Phantom's Ange.
I'll take it! Mind you, I won't need it until I MST my next LotR fic. I haven't seen the Alice in Wonderland movie, so I don't know when Angey is plagiarizing that.
Ain't that the truth. Still, it's pretty sad that she doesn't even know that Glorfindel rescued Frodo. Even Suethors who haven't read the books know that by now, from reading other fanfiction.
Nah, the kindergarten scene is the most exciting. The Retarded Baby Legolas scenes are bogged down with hints of plot or conflict; we don't have to worry about that in the kindergarten scene.
Where'd you go to school? I was in a similar situation; I went to Kenyon College in Ohio. |

Elrohir, who is currently in the corner with his fifteenth bottle of... some alcoholic beverage, thanks you for your sympathy and extends his sympathy to Boromir over the atrocious characterization of him in this fanfic.
That is both a relief, and a statement that has made me lose all hope for the Lord of the Rings fandom.
It's in the mail and should get there by Friday. Oh... well, it will come in handy when you get back to LotR fics. ![]()
Tell me about it. <_< I suppose, for her, movie-canon trumps anything else.
Oh, that's a good point. Why would we want something like plot or conflict in a story we're reading? It might turn it into semi-decent literature, which would elevate it above the paragon of all books- Twilight! I can not believe I just typed that, even in jest.
I'm at Ouachita Baptist University in Arkansas. There are two colleges in this town- and I'm pretty sure that between the two we make up more than 80% of the local population. |

Boromir thanks Elrohir for his sympathy. Actually, the characterization of Boromir in this fic wasn't as god-awful as I expected. Sure, Herenya bashes him a couple of times, but at least he doesn't try to rape anyone.
Not to mention losing all hope for the world. How can anyone over four not know where Syria is? At least Angey's not writing in this fandom anymore.
Thanks!
Probably.
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
I feel for you, I really do. *hugs*
I see. Kenyon was the same: the village was tiny. |

Well, this is true. Herenya is too focused on Sauron to have any time to run away from Boromir, so he settles for being vaguely annoying. Actually, being annoying to a Sue is a good thing. ![]()
That is an excellent question, and one which I've been pondering for quite some time. And as relieved as I am that Angey's not writing LotR fanfics anymore, I still feel sorry for those other fandoms.
Thanks. *hugs back*
Really? I wonder if that's just really common in American college towns? And I hate to say this, but the Suethor has reposted this story. Apparently she didn't take it down, the site did- which might possibly have been a direct result of my reporting it several times for plagiarism. |

Wait, wait. The Sue wants to shag Sauron? Huh. I guess she has an eyeball fetish. And I want Boromir to stab the Sue next.
It could be. There seemed to be a lot of small college towns when I was applying for college, but on the other hand, I wanted to go to a small school, so maybe I was just ignoring the larger ones.
Ugh, really? I think I'm going to leave a "nice" review for the Suethor. That story really made me mad. |

More like the Sue is so speshul Sauron wants her for his very own. :rolleyes: The only thing Sauron would really want Herenya for is to conduct a study on how much torture Sues can take before they disintegrate into urple sparkles. Yes, I'd love for Boromir to stab the Sue as well. Here's hoping...
Perhaps the size of the town is relative to the size of the school? Then again, I know of a very large state school about two hours away from me that's located in a town of 3,000 or so people. *shrugs*
I saw your "nice" review. My sporkers and I thank you for it. |

Ugh, again? You'd think Sauron would have much better taste!
That's more like it! I'd love to read the results of such a study.
You're welcome. |

My sporkers and I called Sauron and asked him about this. There was a moment of silence, a loud shriek, and I'm pretty sure he fainted. That is, if it is possible for a giant eye to faint...
Oh, so would I. Perhaps we should suggest it. |

Poor Sauron! I don't think it's possible for a giant eye to faint, but when Sauron was sporking "The Fellowship Hits Hogwarts," I pictured him in his fair form from the collapse of Numenor.
Go for it! |

Oh, that must be it, then! I didn't get ahold of Third Age Sauron. :lol:
I called Sauron back to suggest it. Apparently he's still passed out, but I left a message on his voicemail. |

This rubs me the wrong way on so many levels, I don't even know where to begin.
*rimshot* ![]() I suspect the writer put in a comma whenever the actress playing Galadriel paused for effect. At any rate, thinking you have to include a voiceover from the movie and provide justification for the accompanying imagery is just silly.
This puzzles me, because it has huan to match with dog, which implies the writer is getting some input on Elvish from somewhere. Come to think of it, the narn = story from earlier comes up in Narn i Hurin or whatever that title is, although it evidently means "children" rather than "story". But Elvish doesn't use k as in kwentra, so . . . I REALLY don't understand where the writer is getting this stuff from.
:lol:
![]()
*snerk* ![]()
x_X
:lol:
Agreed!
Another good one! ![]()
*giggles*
Makes perfect sense to me.
Is there any line in The Princess Bride that isn't quotable? I think not.
Asking for directions is boring. Getting lost is fun.
Winner.
. . . . . . . . . . . . What.
Saruman agrees! ![]()
*giggles helplessly*
Very talented, indeed! :lol:
*snerk* Whee!
I think we have a tie between these three. And what's with the persistent hyphenation of "thank you", anyway?
Apples to Apples rocks. I don't know how my patience would hold up in that situation, though.
I don't quote them all because this post is going to be long enough as it is, but I find your lengthier additions to the story (such as this one) quite amusing.
Oh snap! I wonder, if one were to build a Plagiarism Alarm™ for oneself, would that cause either the original Plagiarism Alarm™ or the duplicate to go off?
Personally, I would've hunted it down and smashed it after the second or third occurrence. Your sporkers have great patience. Or resilience. Or something. ![]()
Oh snap!
There's that weird quasi-Elvish again! Cuiva from Cuivienen = Lake of Awakening or whatever. But presumably that's transcribed from the movie, so it's not the writer's doing. |

“Lust. What a strange fate that we should suffer so much angst and annoyance over such a small thing.” Why, it’s the wonderful magic of wish fulfillment! Do, or do not. There is no think with the Mary Sue. | |

First of all, I don't think we've met. I'm Luthi- the insane, cheesecake-addicted carbon-based history and theatre specialist who is not on much anymore due to college workloads and weird Internet filters. Nice to meet you. *shakes hands*
Trust me- you definitely aren't the only one.
Y'know, I think you might be right. And, again, I agree. With this atrocious writing, why not just say "The movie prologue happened..." and be done with it?
It's Grey Elvish... which Elrohir and I share a disgust of. The Internet is riddled with the stuff.
I like! Now I want that on a t-shirt. ![]()
A Princess Bride line that isn't quotable? Inconceivable! ![]()
Unless you're lost in the bad part of downtown Los Angeles at 1 AM. Been there, done that.
Thank you! ![]()
No earthly idea. I think it's an attempt by the Suethor to look smart by using every possible method of punctuation in this story.
Let's just say it was a 6-episode Star Wars movie marathon involving twelve college students with twelve different majors. Makes things very interesting around three in the morning.
Why, thank you! I have fun writing them. :lol:
That is an excellent question. At the risk of causing the creation of a black hole which will then swallow the Earth and all of us, I think we should test it.
We're going with great fear of being forced to eat cafeteria food for the next six months. ![]()
Yet again, the Suethor proves she has not read the books. I'm pretty sure she admits that, though. Thanks for the review! I really appreciate it.

I'm MD1618, a reading-addicted physics major who isn't on much at all. Pleased to meet you, too. *shakes hands*
Indeed! ![]()
I may add one to the end of my current MST, then. It's done aside from figuring out how to wrap it up.
No problem!

Physics, you say? I applaud you- that is something I could never do. :lol:
Excellent notion. Hopefully I'll be able to show up and read it, but with finals coming up next week... well, we'll see.

I was going to say Boromir…
