Pure Insanity
The point of war is not to die for one's clan, but it's to make the other bastard die for his
Right before you die, there is always a chance to save yourself, sieze that chance and live to fight another day
The best way to kill someone is to fight them with the same weapons they use and make them know you are better than them, not because of superior weaponry, but because of superior skill.
Hidden in the shadows, Clothed in camo, Armed to the teeth. Hunting.

My opinion is that LotR is infinitely better. Definitely more interesting.

Flood Kids? Lol.

I am in absolute shock someone voted Harry Potter. I love both series but it isn't even close.

  • 01.02.2013 9:23 PM PDT

How can Harry Potter stand up to that?

  • 01.02.2013 9:23 PM PDT

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

"It is the cruelest fate, to have written words that meant well and see them made wicked and unwise. What was meant to encourage life, used instead to justify taking it."

While I've never read the Harry Potter series, I'm assuming it's a much less tedious read than The Lord of the Rings. However, Tolkien created numerous languages for his universe, along with thousands of years of history and lore following the creation and separation of nations, races, and cultures.

Bilbo Baggins is like a pepperoni pizza, Harry Potter is like a harry---

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

'Tis very close, but Lord of the Rings inches it for me.

Why didn't Frodo just stick the ring up his ass?

Because Sam would keep turning invisible.

Hardest decision in my life, bro. I love them both. I enjoy the Harry Potter books much more than the Lord of the Rings, though the Lord of the Rings has a much, much better universe.

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the "DO NOT PASS" from LoTR.

"You cannot pass! I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the Flame of Anor! The dark fire will not avail you, Flame of Udun! YOU SHALL NOT PASS!"
