There's something about The Lord of the Rings that speaks directly to the emotionally exhausted part of our soul. Maybe it's the epic battles. Maybe it's the lifelong friendships. Maybe it's the way Denethor ate tomatoes like he was personally trying to ruin your lunch. Whatever it is, this saga hits hard - and so do the memes. And while yes, I know I only brought you 31 of them, I can already hear you muttering, "Boromir would have brought us 32."
Fine. Maybe he would've. Maybe he wouldn't have died trying to take the ring. Maybe Faramir wouldn't be stuck in a never-ending cycle of therapy. Maybe Sam would've gotten more credit for literally carrying the plot up a volcano.
Regardless, these 31 memes are here to remind you why Middle-earth is the most relatable fantasy world ever created - because nothing says "modern burnout" like trying to walk into Mordor with no plan, no snacks, and one loyal friend who definitely deserves better.
