Hmm, my translation skills are failing me.
Think “Lord of the Rings” and the inscription on the inside of the one ring…
OK, so minimedic beat me to it.
“One ring to rule them all, One ring to find them, One ring to rule them all and in the darkness bind them.”–J.R.R.T.
Yeah, probably not on the list of best wedding sentiments.
“Ask a man what his wedding vows were: ‘Honor, love, cherish’, Ask a woman what the vows were: ‘OBEY’. ” – Bill Cosby. Heh.
One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
Oh crap. I new that sounded familiar. My mother-in-law is an orc.
That explains a lot.
(Wife is adopted, or I would never have married her. Told her so.)
For the Horde!
OK, what’s geekier? Recognizing the inscription as written or spotting the Klingon license plate on the Beltway?
And I thought I was a geek when they were quoting the above on ‘The Big Bang Theory’ and I said it along with them (at least it was English and not the language of Mordor). At least my nerd credentials are solid–recognized it right off.
But you’re right–as wedding vows, not-so-much.
I surprised my young grand-nephews (9 and 7) by quoting that (yes, in Orcish) from memory. Then, I helped the other adults to retrieve their eyes, which had rolled so hard they popped out. Geek pride!
