You're obsessed when... by Naera
You are obsessed with LotR when you’ve done at least 3 of these… oh, and yes, I have done all of these!
• You become a member at a site like councilofelrond.com, or frequently visit them.
• You pick up the Two Towers at the school library for an easy 100 on a book report that’s due in 3 days
• You make lembas bread for a project in English…
• You know at least 2 minutes of the scripts (EE) in Elvish.
• You stay up late watching the movies (extended, of course) with your best friend, and start saying the lines without looking at subtitles. (and fight over who gets to be Arwen/Eowyn)
• Your parents limit your time you can spend listening to LotR music, movies, websites, or reading the
books.
• You dedicate a slide to the movies in a slide show (that was for a grade)
• You dedicate a slide to the actors in that very same slide show.
• You list a lot of LotR-themed websites people could visit at the end of your by now annoying slideshow.
• You still made a 100 on that slide show.
• You own either a copy of the Ring, the Evenstar necklace, or Aragorn’s ring.
• You walk around the house muttering lines from the movies.
• Your room has at least 5 pictures of a character from LotR.
• Your most played playlist includes Into the West, music written by Howard Shore, Billy and Dom’s song “The Green Dragon”, and Billy singing “The Edge of Night”.
• You know who the heck I’m talking about when I say Billy, Elijah, Orly, Viggo, Ian M., Sean Bean, Sean Astin, Bernard, Miranda, Liv, and of course, Christopher Lee.
• You have ever written anything even remotely like this.
• You say Arwen’s line at Bruinen with her.
• You bug your friend with info about LotR, when they couldn’t care less.
• Your friends roll their eyes when you talk about something you saw in a movie, because they KNOW it’s LotR… and you tell them anyway.
• You discovered that the travelers each take a different side at the crossroads, yet end up at the same place, still passing the same Mr. Proudfoot.
• You check the scenes where Gandalf and Frodo ride into Hobbiton in FOTR, and the Hobbits’ return to Hobbiton in ROTK, to see if I am right.
• You actually feel better about your obsession now that you know that someone else actually does stuff like this!!!!!!
• You read this!!!!!!!!!!

HAHAHA!!! i guess i’m obsessed w/ lotr =)
wow i do about 2/3’s of those things and i am proud GO LEGOLAS
haha!! Ive never dedicated a slide show to anybody but Ive done EVERYTHING else on this list!!
I already knew there were ppl like me, I just thought they were all ancient!!
This does make me feel better though!! I didnt know anybody else muttered lines around the house like I do.
lol. i have so done all of those except dedicating the slide show. and my parents never limit me on anything. i’m totally obsessed and proud if it!!
OMG, I have done a lot of this!! And I love this list, you rock girl!
thanks everyone. I also forgot to put that you are obsessed with LOTR if you say appropriate quotes in class to your teacher! 🙂 I did it the other day!! 🙂 and please, if you have anything to add, feel free! 🙂 I love everyone! 🙂
I confess to having done a good deal of this, but since the list seems to be fangirl-centric, I can’t do ALL of it… *laughing*
Nonetheless, I enjoyed laughing along with you. Thank you!
Nice work. I passed with flying colors lol. I made something like this once, I need to post it.
Since i am Naera’s friend in real life, i would like to add in i am part of “you know ur obsessed when…”
b/c some of the things that she wrote i have done or have (arwens evenstar neckalace)lol great obsessed list!!
Oh man.. I must be seriously obsessed…
OMG! I have done ALL of those, I was like “ok maybe I’ve done a couple, so I’ll read it anyway,” and to my suprise that’s all me! I bug people when no one cares, and I actually have done that slideshow thing on a slideshow about our life!
Yeah…. I’ve pretty much done all of these….. Several times…… 🙂 It’s gotten to the point when I can only watch the movies when my family isn’t around because I am unable to endure their endless scorn.
This fits me! My mother thought it was sooo funny that she posted the link to this on Fb. You did a really great job! And you’re wrong on one count, I don’t feel better knowing someone else is just as obsessed as I am, because I really don’t care if I’m the only one obsessed with this!!! On the other hand, it is nice to know that I have others who enjoy talking about LOTR as much as I do!!!!
I had most of the ones with the friends…..I drive my friends insane with random LOTR stuff…. MY PARENT TOTALLY LIMIT MY TIME they’re always like, “Nimrodel, you’ve been on long enough,” or “Get your face out of your book and go outside.” I just take my book outside if your wondering how i saolve THAT problem XDD
He he he I’ve done almost everything on this list! 😀
