'So it begins': 27 Lord of the Rings memes for serious fans who are never jokin' when it comes to Tolkien

Everyone has something they hold near and dear to their hearts. For Gimli, the most precious display of elven affections comes in the form of 3 perfectly golden hairs from Galadriel's head. For Samwise Gamgee, nothing is more precious than his set of cast-iron pans. And for our dearest simple fellows like Gollum, there's nothing more precious than the One Ring of power.

To many of us, especially full-timers in the workforce, there's nothing more valuable than a weekend of fun, zero responsibilities, and perfect weather. All we workers truly want is to relax and have a pleasant afternoon with the people we love. We're not so different from the race of hobbits, actually. Although it's a luxury to enjoy up to eleven meals a day, isn't that the epitome of satisfaction? Humans hold comfort in high regard, and there's nothing wrong with a little indulgence.

Well, to the well-versed Lord of the Rings lover, the penultimate of human existence is simple: Watching (and rewatching) LOTR. Regardless of how many times we've seen the movies, the epic battle at Minas Tirith, wholesome moments between dear Sam and our boy Frodo, and spooky Nazgûl chases through rivers will always have us sprinting to the couch, using up the free weekends in life (ie: our most precious of preciousess) to enjoy the Tolkien universe once more.

Steep yourself in glory and the honor of orcs and men, find your 4k Blueray edition of LOTR, and live out your wildest fantasies amidst Middle Earthians.

Tolkien fans take LOTR quite seriously; however, when memes are afoot, it is irresistible to take a cheeky peeky. Scroll onward and take your meme consumption seriously, enjoying every moment of hobbit hilarity, dwarven dolts, and elfish funnies, because the world is far serious enough out there. Time to kick up your hairy big toes, grab your longbottom leaf, and enjoy a finely curated selection of Middle Earthian lore from the movies you love and adore.

The 7-hour sweet spot is a no-man's-land of rest. You might as well just get up earlier and cut your losses if you can't get a full 8.

Is it time to throw these socks away? Absolutely. Will I finally do it? I'm going to channel my inner Isildur and say, "No, I don't think I will."

If Lord of the Rings must have a remake, at least make it a Muppet remix. That's something that every fan can get behind. Forget the Amazon specials or the Netflix originals, let Miss Piggy do the talking for the Riders of Rohan.

Has anyone found this Ring? Asking for a highly powerful, mostly evil, spikey masked friend.
