Tarwa: BEWARE OF THE GOLLUMS! O_O

Merry: What?

Tarwa: You know how Gollum just NEVER DIES?! Well, jordieblob16 and I were talking and we've come to the conclusion that there's a cloning machine and Gollum must've fallen into it.

Merry: I don't think--

Tarwa: That leads us to thinking a terrible thought: what if there's a Gollum apocalypse?! What will we do?! HOW WILL WE SURVIVE?!

Pippin: *slaps her* That's not going to happen.

Tarwa: Oh, yes it will! jordieblob16 and I were also talking about which hobbits would survive or not. Frodo wouldn't because Gollum wants the Ring from him, Sam wouldn't because Gollum hates him, Pippin wouldn't because he's ... well ... Pippin...

Pippin: What's THAT supposed to mean?

Tarwa: ...and Merry would be the only one to survive. He'd hide away in a cave and then slowly but surely turn into Gollum himself...

Merry: What the heck? Tarwa!

Tarwa: *shrugs* Sorry.

jordieblob16: We've been studying this topic long and hard and would like to present to you Five Ways to Survive a Gollum Apocalypse.

Tarwa: Step One - never look a Gollum in the eye.
Step Two - be careful of what you say about the Precious. Gollums are very sensitive when it comes to their Precious.
Step Three - never challenge a Gollum to a riddle game. He will eats it whole.
Step Four - if a Gollum wants something, a Gollum gets it. No objections, no protests. Just give it to him and run away as fast as you can.

jordieblob16: And finally, Step Five - never--

Tarwa: EVER!

jordieblob16: --mention po-ta-toes. It won't end well...

Tarwa: We hope that you've found these tips helpful. Now, RUN AND HIDE BEFORE THE APOCALYPSE STARTS!!!
