I think I'm going to change my name to whatswrongwithelvenkill
I mean, seriously, why is this such an issue? Men have been killing elves since at least the second age. It's what we do. One of our third grade graduation requirements was to go on an ElvenKill, and we got honors if we came back without empty hands, so it's not like it's something new.

I mean, who hasn't?!

I say, those elves who haven't left for the Undying Lands yet are fair game, just like they were for my father, and his father before him, and countless generations back.

Seriously.

What - are we all Numenorian all of a sudden? Gotta rush to aid of the Elves? Can't go on a little elvenkill? What are we supposed to do - hunt hobbits? Like that's any kind of challenge. Plus, they don't pause any kind of thread.

Sheesh.

All you people, just you wait: Rivendell is most certainly NOT sleeping, and someday your uppance will come and you'll wish that you hadn't put the kabosh on a time honored tradition.

Besides, elves spread rabies, and that's a known fact.

1. As long as they aren't Santa's elves, I don't have a problem.

3. Elves are to blame
for the high cost of fuel!

5. Santa's elves don't use fuel, they use magic dust.

6. Yeah, but they use insane amounts of fuel refining and distributing and
concentrating that magic dust.

You'd be amazed.

7. Wow! You learn something new everyday!
I have to say I am disappointed in those elves.

8. And it's also part of their ritual every Christmas Eve to pour
a billion gallons of crude oil into the arctic ocean.

Scout's honor, it's true.

10. Santa needs to sit those elves down and have
a long discussion with them.

What about those Keebler elves? Are they bad too?

18. The Keebler elves? Let's just say that Ma Parker was nothing
Edited on Thu Aug-04-05 03:24 PM by Rabrrrrrr
compared to their organized crime, sex and prostitution rings, and gambling addictions.

If I had to use a toilet after a Keebler Elf, I'd burn it down first, just to be sure I wasn't getting a disease.

And the head Keebler? Let's just say that isn't chocolate on his face, if you know what I mean.

12. Magic dust?
Don't get me started on their rampant drug use...

13. Well they have an awful lot of toys to make in
such a short period of time, plus they have to be creative. It really is the only way.

15. They should just give *us* the magic dust
and skip the toys altogether. Now how's that for an idea.

11. Elves do not spread rabies so stop saying that!
Carnivores spread rabies. Elves are vegetarians, as you well know. Ergo, elves do not spread rabies.

those elves who haven't left for the Undying Lands yet are fair game

The Silvan Elves (Avari) won't be leaving for the Undying Lands. Not now, not soon, not ever. They never made the Great Journey in the first place, you see. "We're here, we're Elvish, and we're not going bow-hunting!" So there.
