32 Lord of the Rings Memes for Tolkien Fans Whose Love of the Halflings Leaf Had Clearly Clouded Their Judgment

I don't think we'll ever see another story like The Lord of the Rings. And it's not because there aren't amazing fantasy writers out there—there are plenty. But Tolkien? He wasn't just a storyteller; he was something else entirely. Who in their right mind would sit down and create multiple languages from scratch, complete with grammar rules and vocabulary? Who spends years crafting a mythology that spans thousands of years, only to use 5% of it in the main story?

The man named every hill, river, tree, and bird that crossed the path of his characters. He wrote full songs—entire songs—about fictional places, and then just casually included them in the text. And let's not forget how he gave his characters names, only to reveal they weren't their "real" names because the book was a "translation" of a fictional book written in a fictional language by a fictional character. Like… who does that?

These 32 memes celebrate the unmatched genius, quirks, and epic brilliance of Middle-earth. Whether you're here for jokes about Sam carrying Frodo (and the entire story, emotionally) or Gimli and Legolas's bromance, these memes remind us why Tolkien's work is still the peak of fantasy.
