tkdguy Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 How about a campaign based on this parody? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bored_of_the_Rings Warning: Some of the characters' names are somewhat vulgar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCoy Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 Re: Bored of the Rings HERO Fond memories. Let's see if I remenber any of the poetry. Let's try the national anthem of the Sty (the parody version of the Shire) We Boggies are a hairy folk Who like to eat until we choke Loving all like Friend and Brother And hardly ever eat each other! Sing: Gobble Gobble Gobble Gobble Gobble Gobble Gobble Gobble Anything eatable we've got dibs on And hope we all die with our bibs on Ever gay we never grow up So come and eat and play and throw up! Sing: Gobble Gobble Gobble Gobble Gobble Gobble Gobble Gobble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markdoc Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 Re: Bored of the Rings HERO Ah yes.. fond memories. The line "they have long, clever fingers of the sort that are usally found around the necks of small animals or in other people's pockets" has been applied to many a halfling thief inour games. cheers, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattingly Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 Re: Bored of the Rings HERO The one that really cracked me up, lo those many years ago, was: "Aieee!" cired the orc, brandishing a faggot. "Aieee!" cried the faggot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithcurtis Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 Re: Bored of the Rings HERO My favorite section was Stomper losing his sword (and silver bullets et al.) at the Sign of the Goode Eats. Keith "Dragonbreth Gilthorpial!" Curtis PS. And one mustn't forget the map. I loved that book, and still keep it in the Tolkein section of the library.

"Aieee!" cried the faggot. That entire section is hilarious. How did that go? "All was quiet except for the rattle of pinball machines and the heavy breathing of North Koreans."

Curufea Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Re: Bored of the Rings HERO Nah, I never found "Bored" that funny or clever. Too low-brow, with expected gags. I found the "Doon" parody much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
