My plant's name is Pippin.... - Page 3

F.B.-B. · 03-25-2002, 09:25 PM

Hahaha. This is fun. I loved "I named my dental floss after this thread." It followed the path of my enigmatic, eccentric mind.
What have I named after TLotR?

My heart is Anduril, for it was once broken, and is newly reforged. Not to mention that it has a tendancy to wound those it doesn't like.

When I see sushi, in my mind it is named Gollum. Turnabout is fair play.

The Beatles are four laughing, singing lads from the Shire who were swept up into a world of madness. (Sound familliar?)

My driveway is the Road, which sweeps me up, and goes ever on and on (and on and on and on.)

The third finger on my right hand is my Precious. I don't want to lose it the way Frodo did ...

My thoughts are Sam's rope. Unbreakable, but tied in knots.

My youngest niece is a she-hobbit. Six meals a day plus snacks says it all.

My mind is Orchrist. It aids me in cleaving away the filth I encounter. If I tend it well, it stays sharp, too.

A chum of mine owns the Greater Smial. At least, a greater smial than I.

There are more, but this is as many as I will bore you with for now.
Best wishes!

Tell the rest, this is the best post on the thread so far. Very good!

F.B.-B. · 03-27-2002, 03:58 AM

Why thank you, Rosie! (Blushing right to the tips of my pointy ears.)

Let me see:

My keyboard is and Enting. Still squeaky, and as far from hasty as any Ent.

I know someone who has the voice of Sting. It is pretty, but sometimes so sharp I can make a person fall to pieces. I wouldn't be surprised if she starts wearing blue lipstick when enemies are around...

Copy machines are Peter Jackson. The copy is never quite as good as the original.

Stinker and Slinker I dub the feet of someone I know. Stinker for obvious reasons, Slinker because this person has a way of slipping away in the middle of a conversation.

My computer monitor is the Eye. Stop glaring at me like that! It's making me weary ...

My bathtub I name Peregrin, in his honor. I have surpassed him in the amount of floods I have created, and the bath song has become my anthem.

The television is the Box of Power, (as in the Ring of Power,) sucking attention to it's self as it does. No, you shall never dominate my will as you have so many others, Box.

There are more, but I have to go reply to another thread before the Dark Lord (Night,) summons me against my will to his realm (sleep.)

Goodnight!

RosieCotton · 03-27-2002, 09:34 AM

Very nice and very creative. In honor of this thread, I named a plant downstairs in my kitchen Pippin. My parents don't know because if they did, they would never stop making fun of me. My dad already does because I have a teddy bear named Sam.
Rosie

Khadrane · 03-27-2002, 11:45 AM

I wish I could name an animal/plant/kid after LOTR. But my little sister is already named, and all my pets are already named... but there is that grubby little plant upstairs...

Haha, that's a great: Rosie Cotton cuddles Sam every night. I will have to think hard to come up with one as good as that!

Oh, and Khadrane? Don't worry that your sister already has a name. I give people second names all of the time, and they love it. Especially if they have never read TLotR before. How are they supposed to know what a Mornie Yrch is? I mean, it sounds nice enough ...

She knows I like LOTR, so she'd suspect it meant something mean, and I think she'd beat me up if I called her Aragorn or something.

I feel so honored!

today was a Easter decoration contest and I put him in a doll Easter dress. People knew he was a boy (although that is innaccurate as plants go... I don't care) and they were giving me a hard time about it. My response: "There's something to be said about a man that's confident enough in his sexuality to wear a dress in public... in private is a whole other story."

ekrenbrand · 03-31-2002, 10:41 PM

My cat's name is mithrandir. She is pregnant and we have the names
galadriel
ekrenbrand
theoden
saruon
bilbo
sam
pippin
and gandalf
picked out for its kitties.

So that's what Gandalf did when he got back to Valinor.

RosieCotton · 04-01-2002, 11:24 AM

Haha. Mithrandir is umm...very pregnant. Great name choices by the way.

Khadrane · 04-01-2002, 09:57 PM

I have a chicken named Gwaihir now! (Well, he's not exactly mine , but I wish he was.)

Entlover · 04-02-2002, 01:57 AM

I had a fern named Ralph (after the Greatest American Hero) but he died. That was really sad.

Arathorn · 04-02-2002, 02:14 AM

I had a miniature doberman named puppy when I was 4. He's now buried in what used to be our backyard near the university.

Oi! You leave my feet out of conversations that don't have me in.... *waves FEET threateningly*

In honour of this thread, I have named my sipper bottle after the One Ring, - never there when you want it!

Do you think my dad would be insulted if I called him "Ungoliant"?

Yes, but I know who Ungoliant was. My dad doesn't. Plus it fits him.
