The Pants Game

irobbedfortknox · 03-12-2002, 08:52 PM

Hello; I'm not really new here, but my old account (as oasamenistoux) isn't working.

This is The Pants Game. I don't know if any of you have ever played it. It's simple: just substitute the word "pants" (either the noun or verb

) for a word or so in a well-known (or little-known, I suppose) quote form LotR. Examples:

SAM: I made a promise, Mr. Frodo. "Don't you pants him, Samwise Gamgee." And I don't intend to.

BOROMIR: It is a strange fate that we should risk so much fear and doubt... for so small a pair of pants.
ARAGORN: Give the pants back to Frodo.

SAM: This is it ... one more step, and this will be the farthest away from my pants I've ever been.
---OR---
SAM: This is it ... one more step, and this will be the farthest away from home I've ever been without pants.

This can get REALLY hilarious very quickly.

I like this game.

Frodo: "I will take these pants . . . though I do not know the way."

Gandalf: "YOU SHALL NOT PANTS!"

Aragorn: "This is beyond my skill to heal. He needs pants!"

one pair of pants for the dark lord
on his dark throne

one pants to rule them
one pants to find them

one pants to bring them all
and in the darkness bind them

"It would," said Gimli, "If I had pants to go with it. Alas, I lost mine in Moria, or before. Are there no pants in all your plunder?"

"No, I am afraid not," said Merry. "We have not found any, not even here in the guardrooms. Saruman kept those dainties to himself, it seems. And I don't think it would be any use knocking on the doors of Orthanc to beg pants of him! We shall have to share pants, as good friends must at a pinch."

A bit long, I know.

Wayfarer · 03-12-2002, 10:45 PM

That was last summer... It's even better now.

And believe it or not, i know at least two people who beat me in the hair department.

***Khamûl*** · 03-12-2002, 11:43 PM

All that are pants does not glitter,
Not all pants who wander are lost,
The pants that are strong does not wither,
Deep pants are not reached by the frost,
From the pants a fire shall be woken,
A light from the pants shall spring,
Renewed shall be pants that were broken,
The pantless again shall be king.

The Doors of Durin, Lord of Moria. Speak, pants, and enter.

"Pants," muttered Gandalf. "Now I understand." He faltered and leaned heavily on his staff. "What an evil fortune! And I am already weary."

Suddenly, caught by the level beams, Frodo saw the old king's pants: it was lying rolled away by the roadside. "Look, Sam!" he cried, startled into speech. "Look! The King has got pants again!"

FrodoFriend · 03-12-2002, 11:55 PM

Frodo: "I don't suppose we'll ever see our pants again."
Sam: "We may yet, Mr. Frodo. We may."

Boromir: "If you would but let me borrow your pants . . ."

Legolas: "AI! AI! Pants are come!" (Poor Legolas doesn't want to give up his tights!)

Gimli: "Well, let us go on. My legs must forget the miles. They would be more willing, if my pants were less heavy."

Saruman: "Whom do you serve?"
Lurtz: "PANTS!"

Arathorn · 03-13-2002, 06:58 AM

These seem to sound better and funnier with any european pronounciation for "pants" (like the way Kahn in Genghis Kahn is pronounced).

I'll give it a go:

Gandalf: "I am a member of the secret Trousers. Wielder of the pants of Anor. Jeans of Udun. You shant have pants!"

"Pants you fools!"

Gollum: "What has it gots in its pantses?"

Aragorns Dimple · 03-13-2002, 07:07 AM

"If you want his Pants, come and claim them!"

Arathorn · 03-13-2002, 07:10 AM

We will not abandon Merry and Pippin's pants. Bring only the jeans that are needed. We travel light. Let's hunt some pants!

Aragorns Dimple · 03-13-2002, 07:24 AM

"That's right! Barliman is my name. Barliman Butterbur at your pantservice! You're from the Pantshire, eh?" he said, and then suddenly clapped his hand to his pants, as if trying to remember something. "Pants!" he cried. "Now what does that remind me of? Might I ask your pants, sir?"

"Mr Trousertook and Mr Dungareebuck,"said Frodo; "and this is Sam Panties. My name is UnderPants."

Arathorn · 03-13-2002, 07:31 AM

"Were there any olipants?" asked Sam, forgetting his fear and eagerness for news of strange trousers.
'No, no olipants. What are olipants?' said Gollum.

Kyote Fields · 03-13-2002, 12:45 PM

They are light pants. Made by elves, you know. Their name is Sting and they glow blue whenever Orcs are around.

Nibs · 03-13-2002, 02:18 PM

"...fortune had turned against Eomer, and his pants had betrayed him."

"'The Pants are following,' said Legolas. 'I see shapes of waists and rivets, and pale knees like shreds of cloud, and pockets like winter-thickets on a misty night. The Pants are following.'
'Yes, the Pants ride behind. They have been summoned,' said Elledan."

"Pippin gazed in wonder at the great stone pants, vaster and more splendid than any thing he had dreamed of."

Don't any one dare to use the first line of RotK. It'd be wrong.
