I suddenly have a strange urge to go 'hehe' and run around staffbapping people and casting spells of mass distruction...

Wayfarer: Oh, look! It's Arwen! *peers out from beneath his floppy hat at Liv Tyler*

Liv: Um... I'm afraid you have me...

Wayfarer: Say... your father isn't still mad at me for beating him at cards last thursday...

Liv: Look, just because...

Tesseract: Stop That!

Liv: Look... I don't know what you're talking about. My father?

Wayfarer; Of course! Elrond! You know I personally think he was trying to cheat with that confounded spoon of his...

Liz: Spoon? Oookaaayyy.... Look... First Elijah goes nuts, and then orlando runs off with some midgets from the circus, and now...

Wayfarer: I notice you're not wearing a sword. Isn't that sor of out of character for you?

Liz: Uuuhhhhh!

After all that, I suppose it's rather boring of me to say I would go to see the elves! And then I would go to the Shire and plant a garden.

I would go over the sea to Valinor and live there forever.

As Bilbo so nicely put it, I would wander.

I'd meet people and visit the different races... talk about the world and learn from the masters... and travel all over Middleearth, seeing all the beautiful sights!

First thing to do would propably get lost and eaten by wargs...
If that could be avoided, I'd propably try to get to Bree, learn Westorn and then try to get to Rivendell...
At some point I'd have to learn how to fight (though I'm quite good with longsword already, if I may say, but it might be a bit different if enemy really wants to kill you ), if I'd want to wander any longer...

Well, if I had my bucket and spade with me, I'd make sand castles at the Grey Havens. Or, I'd take my box for a tour of those tourism hotspots, aka Moria, and Mordor.

Well, supposing I "appeared" near the Shire, I'd try to find my way there and learn Westron. Then I'd go to Rivendell and learn elvish, then I'd visit all the "touristy" spots like Erebor and Helm's Deep, etc. And of course I'd learn to sword fight and become skilled w/ a bow and arrow. I may have to give up my vegetarianism, since the roads there may not have enough edible plant stuff to survive on. I'd of course try to find someone to be a guide and companion for me.

i was tricked into coming here, thought it was a reincarnation of my favourite thread but alas.
never mind.
if i got to middle earth? i'd explore. i'd go everywhere i could, meet people from all the different races, eat all of the different foods and take lots of pictures to take back home and boast about to all my friends.
or on the other hand i may track down legolas or aragorn who could be my tour guides to save me from getting lost.

I'd wander and get lost. That happens so much anyway.
I'd try to make my way towards the shire as i prefer a peaceful like like that rather than an elvish one; its too "high" for me.
I'd be happier living with hobbits.

I'd look around hit myself on the head and say to myself: "Now how did I get here? See? I TOLD you it wasn't turn left after you leave the highway!" So I'd walk around cold, hungry and feeling just plainly miserable. That is until I meet some people who I then will frighten by my outlandish look and insane dialect. Then they'll naturally think I'm a nut and lock me up somewhere - hopefully warm - and throw away the key.

Mmmm, why doesn't that sound any positive? On second thought BoP, spare a bucket for me I'm going with you! The sea is calling!

Well, if I was at home minding my own business one minute and in somewhere like Mirkwood the next I would start freaking out and running around screaming like an idiot.

First, I'd go find any elves left in Middle Earth. Then I'd go to Gondor and finally the Undying Lands. I'd be really shocked.

Hmmmm what would I do if I just 'suddenly appeared' in ME, Mary-Sue style? I guess I'd get myself a nice pair of forest green tights, the kind that drives the girls mad with desire (?) then a spanky new tunic to wear over the tights. Then visit the Elves and get one of those 'look at me I'm invisible' robes.

And dressed in my newfound sartorial splendour, THEN I would start wandering, heh heh!
