Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Shall we agree that the language bits started to coalesce before the mythology part of his story?

I had understood that he made up the language and then came up with Middle Earth as a place for it to be spoken.

I once had a tiny grasp of written Elvish of the lower sort, but I was part of the early '70s Tolkien obsession and read LoftR a couple of times in my teens. I have the illegal Ace edition, which I bought new, although the books have now pretty much dissolved into individual flaking pages.

It's always good to hear the Leigh Brackett love.

I think I'm looking for the straight version of SH for myself.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

The Lord of the Rings Symphony people told us that no matter where the tour went, there was always someone in the local chorus who knew how to pronounce the Elvish.

My professional dealings with the Tolkien estate have led me to the same conclusion, though I would probably have said "A wacky ASSHAT."

(squints) I'm...sorry you had to do that. The tangles around that legacy rival the IRS in complexity and nonsense.

One of (our - the Reasons' and mine) co-workers at WotC was Dr. John Ratcliff - who is a Tolkien scholar (one of the few people I'll *admit* is geekier on this subject than I am) and has written books about Tolkien, the legendarium, and the movies. His tales of wending through the Tolkien Estate are horrific. Ew.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

OK, if Jaba was marooned on present-day Earth, what job would he take?

Have you seen Rush lately?

Hell, I'm wishing SH was female.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I was part of the early '70s Tolkien obsession and read LoftR a couple of times in my teens.

I'm so used to seeing LotR that I read this as, "Lord of the Fucking Rings".

That's not what the porno version was called.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That's not what the porno version was called.

What was it? "Lord of the Cock-rings"?

WAS BLISSFULLY IGNORANT.

The Lord of the G-Strings: The Femaleship of the String

I don't recall much of the story line, just that Misty Mundae was pretty yummy. Gotta love Cinemax.
