Happy Tolkien Tuesday, nerds, geeks, and all-around Lord of the Rings freaks. We're back for another round of this week's best Middle-Earth-based internet memes. I'll admit it. I wasn't a Lord of the Rings fan until fairly recently. I didn't grow up with it and I was rarely exposed to it. The closest I got to becoming a fan was through playing “The Lord of the Rings: Conquest.” Even then, it was just a game I played at my friend's house. The first real theatrical exposure to the series was thro…

Return of the memes

One meme to rule them all

Fly, you fools!

One meme to rule them all

Boil 'em mash 'em stick 'em in a stew

One meme to rule them all

Happy Tuesday, nerds. On this beautiful day in New York City, things are pretty damn smoggy thanks to the terrible wildfires. As an asthma sufferer, I must stay inside despite the relatively pleasant temperature. Thankfully, I've got plenty of ways to busy myself. One helpful pastime has been collecting Lord of the Rings memes for our weekly roundup of the good stuff: a mix of fresh, funny, and classic memes inspired by the books and movies we so love. This week, like last week, we've got a few…

Welcome, fellow Middle-Earth enthusiasts, to a realm where humor intertwines with the beloved world of The Lord of the Rings . That's right, it's Tuesday, so you're gonna wanna brace yourselves as we embark on a journey through another meme gallery crafted with devotion to this timeless saga. From Boromir's unforgettable "One does not simply" meme, forever capturing his desperate plea for the wisdom of the Council of Elrond, to the legendary "They're taking the hobbits to Isengard!" musical rem…

What up, what up? It's that time of the week again. Tuesday . While this day may be the most difficult of the week (no longer refreshed from the weekend, lots of weekdays left until freedom), its name does happen to have some interesting origins. Tuesday actually stems from Tīwesdæg, an Old English word that means “the day of Tiw.” Tiw was a Germanic god of war, similar to Mars, or Ares, if we're talking Roman or Greek mythology . Somehow it makes sense that we'd be offering up our weekly colle…

As excited as I am for the warm weather to arrive, I always feel a bit of sadness as winter ends and hibernation ceases with it. Though I often decry the pains of seasonal affective disorder, the winter blues are great for enabling behaviors that may not necessarily be the most mentally healthy. This can mean gorging oneself on rich, wintery meals. It can also mean (if you're like me) binge-watching movies and television shows. While I like a current comedy or a cooking competition as much as t…

Greetings, fellow travelers of both the Internet and Middle-earth! We're back with another hefty collection of Lord of the Rings memes , brought to you by a true fan of both J.R.R. Tolkien's legendary masterpieces and Peter Jackson's epic film adaptations, and a fan of memes. Prepare to embark on an adventure as timeless as the journey of Frodo and the Fellowship, as we explore the Internet's darkest caverns, hunting for, well, the dumbest and funniest Lord of the Rings memes that they have to…

Happy Tuesday, nerds! Welcome back to another edition of Tolkien Tuesday, where we put together rousing roundups of memes for anyone who loves The Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies. This collection has got it all: incredibly dumb and low-effort memes that somehow hit the spot, memes that reference the actual books instead of Peter Jackson's adaptations, plus some solid Twitter and Tumblr posts that shout out our favorite fantasy films and the books that inspired them. As a bonus, we're als…

What up, nerds? I don't know about you, but it has been a rough couple of weeks. Dealing with a breakup, health issues, children being murdered, and the daily struggle of working is tough, to say the least. But when the world feels like it's falling apart, we often turn to stories for comfort and inspiration. For many of us, J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings trilogy is a go-to source for both. But let's be real, sometimes we just need a good laugh instead of a dense tome. And that's where…

It's Tuesday again, which means we're enjoying my absolute least favorite day of the week. It's not close enough to Friday for us to feel hope, and the weekend was just recent enough to inspire feelings of wistfulness. Despite my hatred for this day, there are some redeeming qualities. A) it's a day associated with tacos, and B) we get to round up all our favorite Lord of the Rings memes to share with fans on our site and beyond. Whether you're a book purist or a movie buff, you're bound to fin…

Warm greetings to our fantasy-loving friends. Not much has been going down in the Lord of the Rings universe since Warner Bros. announced their plans to expand it. That is, unless you're a Magic: The Gathering fan. According to IGN, which is offering an exclusive first look at some of the cards, The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth will be a full, draftable card set that is legal to play in the game's modern format. While this news might be exciting for MTG nerds, many of us are not tha…
