To Afro-Elf mainly........

Ah,an attempt at humour eh?

Very poor i'd say and probably only shows how poor your knowledge of LOTR is and how apathetic you are towards the subject!

Feeling a little provoked?,good because then if you bother to reply you MIGHT have something worthwhile to say!

And please dont say you arent bothered by my criticism,for if you really werent interested in my original post,why did you go to all the trouble of typing out all the questions?

All you've proved is you ignorance,oh and yes a poor sense of humour too!

Feeling even more provoked?

No?,well in that case just go back to sleep and let the rest of us get on with contributing something USEFUL/INTERESTING/FUN to this site!

Gollum Re: Questions,Questions?

Still a few parts to get,

Dunlendish name for the Rohirrim,

Still one of the beacons to get,

Where in the Shire was Fatty captured?,

And my question from the other thread,

"What is the link between Merry and Fram,son of Framgar?

Clues: You wont get the answer from family trees,nor is Fram a hobbit,but part of the answer "winds round and round".

Plenty more to stump you once you have these!

Afro-elf....I thought it was funny.

allsirgarnet....."Lighten up Francis!"

Oh and don't flame other members. How do you know the extent of his Tolkien knowledge? Not everyone is always going to follow your threads to the "T" and answer in the way you want. I actually found his post entertaining....and isn't that we are here for...entertainment?

perhaps, my friend, you have a different perception of what "fun" is? i thought afro-elf was being most enjoyably silly! and it's my understanding from posts of his that he is not at all ignorant, and luckily he doesn't seem to retaliate to provocation.

point being - we're all friends here! play nice!

as for your questions, i can only make a foolish guess at one - i know the rohirrim were also called eorlingas, although i don't know whether they were called that by the people of dunland.

I thought you were hilarious, afro-elf.

Fram was I beileve the Rohir who slew Scatha the Worm. Merry received his horn from Éowyn and Éomer, I think, or anyway he received a horn from Scatha's horde.

Fredegar was arrested at the Brockenborings.

The missing beacon hill is Amon Dîn, the Silent Hill.

"Strawheads" is English you know, not really Westron.

Allsirgarnet: I bet people will think I'm really intelligent if I bash some of the established members of the entmoot community. He he he I am so funny. I'll keep saying "us" instead of "I" in my post so it looks like everyone is on my side.I am so clever.
-----------------


While your post is not useful or interesting it is fun to make fun of. I guess that justifies it.

Oh and you see those little numbers to the left hand side of your message. The guy you just blasted for NOT KNOWING ANY THING ABOUT LOTR has 823 post. That's 800 more post than yours.

Your post has won a spot on my collection of humourously stupid post.
