Welcome back to Tolkien Tuesdays, nerds. We took a bit of a break there but now we're back and stronger than ever, with plenty of memes to show for our absence. Most of these Lord of the Rings-related memes are fresh off the meme creation burners, and they've all been approved by our favorite Tolkien-loving humorists. They're a great mix of classic formats, labeled screenshots, and even get into some very specific lore. And if you find yourself needing more? You can check out our last installment.

We don't usually expect to get all teary-eyed from a Tumblr writing prompt, but we definitely appreciate surprises. This particular prompt imagines a situation in which Death decides to offer a game in exchange for our protagonist's life. Dungeons and Dragons, a game that can be endless, is quickly chosen. We follow their years-long journey and by the end the sappiness is supreme.
Whether you're weeks deep into a campaign or just trying desperately to start a new one with some fresh faces, these memes and tweets are guaranteed to hit home. It doesn't matter if you're a barbarian or a bard, or even a self-sacrificing DM. These memes'll get to you.

Hey nerds! Have you been sleeping on the incredible Twitter account @AwfulFantasy? It's as if The Onion started writing 280 character articles about science fiction and fantasy. As one can imagine, the passages range from devilishly clever to laugh-out-loud hilarious. We've put some of our favorites together here, but for more of their five years of content, go ahead and peruse their Twitter.
We're of the mind that escaping reality is the best thing for us to do these days. Best way to avoid actuality? A goddamn fantasy role playing game. Whether you're a shamelessly horny Bard or a kill-happy barbarian, these memes are sure to tickle your nerdy fancy.
And here are some more memes to distract you!
