Did he ever get stuck another time, or was twice enough?

Hard to judge the entire species when some people will murder other humans without a second thought while others wouldn’t hurt a fly. We’re complicated.

Oh, you’re correct. I totally forgot that the movie Mt. Doom scene wasn’t in the book! It makes more sense that way, since Halflings being resistant to the Ring was made out to be a big deal.

I guess his clothes are so starched they calcified.

Oh, I didn’t take it in a negative way. I enjoy logically analyzing patently ridiculous things.

There’s probably a pretty decent crossover between those two things.

Well, the rest still makes sense if you’re putting a human skeleton in an octopus-ish body. Not so much the digits that he doesn’t have, though.

Even given he’s an anthropomorphic cartoon octopus, that is a bizarre skeleton for him to have. Why do his tentacles have skeletal hands and feet on the ends?

I had to go out of my way to find a dumb HD TV years ago. I don’t know if they even exist any more.

Oh, you’re confused because it doesn’t have a bunch of arrows pointing to it. Maybe this will help?

Neither did Frodo, then. They each made it just as far as the other.

I remember reading this a while back and it really vindicates both Frodo and Isildur. Both were always doomed to fail at destroying the ring, but it really fucked up when it let Gollum possess it for over 400 years. Never underestimate what an addict will do for a fix!

The human is the one being adopted, of course.

Judging by the popularity of Germany’s AfD party, the US isn’t the only one.

Good news, AI is coming to ruin video games as well!

Passive consumers of poorly thought thoughts.

It’s just a reiteration of some of the elements of the riddle rather than a comprehensive list.

It’s a trick question; the answer is 1, the person going to St. Ives. 2,801 are going the other way.

As I was going to St. Ives

I met a man with seven wives

Every wife had seven sacks

Every sack had seven cats

Every cat had seven kits

Kits, cats, sacks, and wives

How many were going to St. Ives?

My cat’s favorite toy is a velcro cord tie that came with some thing or another I got years ago. He’s liked it since he was a kitten and it disappears for months at a time only to show up again periodically as he finds it.
