84. When you see a thread that mentions Middle Earth and decide to read every single post and also revive the thread.

85. When you shout at your English teacher because they said they've never read LotR (I didn't actually do this, but I wanted to).

86. When you are doing an extract from LotR in English (the lesson, not the language), and it's from the film and you start pointing out all the differences to the book (that's how 85 came up).

87. When you start reciting the Ring poem just to annoy your friends.
Error. Error. Cannot compute.

88. When you refer to Aragorn as Estel.

89. When you've been to Weta Workshops.

90. When you want to memorise every single detail of books and film.

91. When you get super annoyed at your brothers' The Lego Hobbit video game because of differences it has to the book.
Infant Ebby is a smol, out-of-control firebending terror. It's a good thing she's also quite cute.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
