Tolkien Tuesday: The Best Lord of the Rings Memes This Week

Step one in maintaining a thriving modern fandom: make sure that there is always a steady supply of memes.

All the good people who belong to the one dedicated to The Lord of the Rings offer one of the best examples of this. While it certainly helps that the combination of efforts by J.R.R. Tolkien and Peter Jackson provides an almost endless supply of quotable lines and iconic moments, the magic that takes it all up a notch comes from the fans themselves. It is the countless would-be hobbitses across the globe who take this legendary source material and remix it into something that time and again manages to be a hit with the notoriously fickle humor consumers that are scattered across the internet. 

Much like the adventures of the story itself, the in-jokes are constantly developing and changing. Each of them are perfectly suited for another round of meme treatment, and that ongoing creativity keeps the fandom feeling alive. With that in mind, we present yet another curated collection of Tolkien-inspired memes for the consideration of every honorary inhabitant of Middle-earth out there. We hope they meet the high standards expected by the most devoted LOTR fans. These memes are ideally enjoyed alongside a second breakfast, but they also serve as a delightful way to pass the time, regardless of which meal you happen to be procrastinating through. Aside from potatoes, there is nothing quite as nourishing as some good humor about something that you love.
