Aiiiiii. According to this article I enjoy (and in some cases, am rabidly passionate about) 9 out of 10 of the Top Ten Geekiest Hobbies. No wonder no one will shag snog go out with me. *sob*
Stupid people. Am such a sexy wee beastie with my Starfleet uniform and stack of comic books and D&D character sheet. Hmmph.

Worship me like the goddess I am!
Date: 2003-10-13 01:38 pm (UTC)Hehehe. I know, it's a tricky one to figure out -- but I'll never tell. ;-)
*WORSHIPS*
Date: 2003-10-13 01:43 pm (UTC)(I have low WIS. Can you tell?)
*preens*
Date: 2003-10-13 01:47 pm (UTC)Once upon a time I was a big ol' Perky Goth. I've never been a vampire in the sense that I go to parties to drink people's blood, but...well, there can be hobbity vamps too. Hee.
What's WIS?

Date: 2003-10-14 06:33 am (UTC)Hobbity vamps--hee! There's a crossover just waiting to happen. "Look out, Mister Frodo! Those wraiths are coming to drink our blood!"
On second thought, maybe not...
(WIS = Wisdom, as abbreviated on character sheet.)

Date: 2003-10-14 05:46 pm (UTC)There is FrodoVamp fanfiction apparently. Some people are so strange.
WIS! Doh. Am so stupid. Of course I know what that is. My thinking cap was obviously put on packwards today. ;-)

Date: 2003-10-15 06:16 am (UTC)And, heeheeheehee!
Re: *WORSHIPS*
Date: 2003-10-13 05:15 pm (UTC)(Most of us, of curse. Angsty hobbits, now taht's rarer.)
O.O & other assorted Frodo-eyes
7 out of 10 here, if you were wondering... 8 if you count hobbits as furry and 9 if Jennifer Government: NationStates is considered a Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) cf. EverQuest. No Card Collecting here, and I generally get my comic fix online, but I consider digital photography "scrapbooking" when combined with LJ-posting.

Hobbit angst
Date: 2003-10-13 07:31 pm (UTC)Weeeelll, I dunno about that...
The gleam faded from his eyes, and they went dim and grey, old and tired...could one of the sleepers have seen him, they would have thought that they beheld an old weary hobbit, shrunken by the years that had carried him far beyond his time, beyond friends and kin, and the fields and streams of youth, an old, starved, and pitiable thing. [TTT]
"Frodo, Mr. Frodo!" he called. "Don't leave me here alone! It's your Sam calling. Don't go where I can't follow! Wake up, Mr. Frodo!" [TTT, "The Choices of Master Samwise"]
No taste of food, no feel of water, no sound of wind, no memory of tree or grass or flower, no image of moon or star are left to me. I am naked in the dark, Sam, and there is no veil between me and the wheel of fire. I begin to see it even with my waking eyes, and all else fades..." [RoTK]
Farmer Cotton found Frodo lying on his bed; he was clutching a white gem that hung on a chain about his neck and he seemed half in a dream. "It is gone forever," he said, "and now all is dark and empty." [RoTK, "The Grey Havens"]
That sounds pretty angsty to me. :-P
Ringbearers are a special case, of course.
As for "fanfiction written by hormonal teenage girls", that phrase sounds a teensy tad bit redundant. :-D

Of course there are angsty hobbits in LOTR -- Frodo in ROTK is pure angst onna stick. I was just teasing. Sheeesh. *ticklepoke* :-P
