Dude, he's a magical leprecaun with a yellow hat who sings happy songs. What about the part where he asks the hobbits to frollic naked in the grass? But like, he somehow has this mysterious significance to the cosmology. It's just too weird, even for a book about elves and wizards.

>>751382

He's a nature spirit, and if memory serves, the opposite of Sauron. Demigod of life and happiness, all that noise. Of course, you can't see that, you're too hung up on the homo-eroticism of something that was meant to be innocent. Do you feel that nudists are also deranged?

>>751384
Well you are right about the nature spirit thing, although it's never really explicitly stated what manner of being he is. He certainly wasn't a Maiar but in terms of personality he seems to be polar opposite of Sauron.

You are imagining the homo-eroticism bit, I never said anything like that. I guess I was pretty vague what I meant by referencing that scene, as I said, pretty high. I meant to imply the absurdity of the event in the context of a tale of dark peril and . Of course I don't find nudism deranged you ninny. But Tom is just out of place in the story, and slows down the plot. His presence feels an interjection, like he should be the one you circle on a "which one doesn't belong" question. To me at least.

>>751386

Ah. My bad. I kinda assumed you were calling that section gay. Quite a few people do. As far as it being out of place, I see it as being a place of rest, and joy, similar to the home of Elrond, which provides a contrast to the dark and danger of the rest of the books.

As far as his actual power goes, the fact that he simply whistles barrow wights suggests where he stands. He does come across as an interjection, but I think that may have been intentional, a bit of a "story for another day" type of character.

People who have not read the books ( lord of the rings, simillarion, hobbit, etc) can not fully appreciate the greatness of Tolkien's universe. It is a masterpiece, so finely written and beautifully weaved together. The attention to detail is astounding. The way he writes the stories,and the language he uses, makes the story feel so real and close to the reader. I have read LOTR and Simillarion multiple times, and it remains one of my all time favorites.
LOTR has influenced much of popular gaming culture today. Where do you think the definition of things like Orcs and Elves and Dwarves come from? They were invented by a man over 50 years ago. Even today, Tolkien's works remain one of the best fantasy fiction ever written. IMO the only thing that comes remotely close is Dune.

They should all die young so we can continue to hear their super awesome songs on the radio 15 years later

that dude is such a jesus, people only still care because they think he might come back. I feel sorry and no longer hate him. not saying he was even close to decent, by my standards(yeah yeah no one gives a shit) but he doesn't deserve all this.

For some reason, I saw this pic and just assumed something sexual was happening =/

Also bump

the people in OP's image look related

Things like depicted in your pic won't actually happen to you whilst performing science.

More importantly, you should know that Gauss's law relates electric charge contained within a closed surface to the surrounding electric field. It describes with mathematical clarity how the divergence of an electrical field is affected by charges (electric field lines diverge from positive charges and are drawn towards negative charges). It also states that the total electric flux through a Gaussian surface is unrelated to the shape and size of that surface.

For simplification, refer to pic.

I'm doing an honors year for my degree in Philosophy of science, and you don't really know what you are talking about. You sound like you have heard some things which science has problems with, but don't understand them, or haven't thought them through. That or you are just too hight to express what you mean

>>751312

No, he's merely pointing out to someone asking what to know that there are problems with how science occurs, and that it is limited. That isn't something most humans consider when they think of science. I think you may have some bias issues, and are attacking this man because he is undermining the value of something you appear to have invested quite a bit in.

You also desire to have sexual intercourse with your maternal parent

You should know that science is bullshit and that everything happens because of Jesus.

>>751254
Music. Hands down. No contest. Without a second thought. No hesitation. Cannot emphasize enough how pointless it would be to consider anything otherwise.

This.

I would strike a bargain so that I'd lose the nut, but get to smoke weed every day whenever I wanted for the rest of my life. That would be so worth it.

Also, if I had a free wish,it would be that whenever I snapped my fingers, a fat joint of kindbud and a brand new bic lighter would appear in my hand. Anytime when I snapped my fingers.

Bonus: I could sell joints and lighters as a business on the side.

DICKS EVERYWHERE

I would lose my left nut. CONSIDERING I DON'T HAVE A PENIS DERPITY DERP DERP HUR DERP

not here bub

what

Shit yes nigga

My very first highs were actually from an inhaler for asthma. I had exercise-induced asthma at the time, so I had an inhaler with one of those chambers to go with it. One spring day, I really wore myself out and reached for my inhaler. Desperately wanting to breathe better, I put 20-some puffs into the chamber and inhaled the whole thing.

The good news was that I could breathe. The other news was that I got a buzzing head high and the world started to tilt, get bigger, and generally seem different. Then I started to hear things; the best way I could describe them would be as fractal echoes of things I've heard before. I would be hearing a person or a crowd of people say something, and what was said would repeat itself in an endless loop, sounding all the more important with each utterance. The experience lasted about half an hour to an hour, but it seemed like longer at the time.

WHOP WHOP WHOP WHOP WHOP

It's typical to hear the walls making a sound like a hellicopter, or a rapid dink dink dink dink noise. Once you hear it you can't stop hearing it, echoing from each wall in the room.
