@Kingfish There seems to be a huge corollary between Tolkien fans and paganism.

Rikki tikki tavi was my shit

parents read me old greek and norse stories as a kid

@Kingfish rn

Redwall series was another childhood favorite.

Physically remove cobras

@Papa Pizzagate YOOOO

@Papa Pizzagate Tolkien was a very serious Christian but he also had very non Christian conceptual beliefs which I could autisically go off about but I shall refrain

@DeusVolk you messed with Redwall?

@Kingfish I know. I was talking about the more hardcore fans.

Just an observation.

I did. I can't remember any of it but I remember them mice.

Sam Dickson's point on the Pagano-Christian nature of Europeans explains Tolkein perfectly

An intelligent guy, no doubt.

To who else here watched those m f’n STAR WARS PREQUELS

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN Yeah it's clearly a union of both.

@Kingfish

When you and your boy are flyering and antifa shows up and surrounds you and you’re trying to figure out a plan

I've never seen a Star Wars movie, I actually liked tbh

@DeusVolk It's a good and wholesome series for 7-16 year olds.

Or at least kids who are a bit young for larger and more epic stories like LOTR

I mean epic in the traditional sense here, not in the "okay this is epic" sense.

That’s why you start your kid off with the hobbit boi <:usinnoodle:420778112226164736>

My earliest memory is actually my dad reading it to me

I love that you have those gifs on tap, lmao.

Of course I do

I actually missed the Harry Potter train. I was raised reading "Animorphs"

Oof.

Nah it is low key redpilled

I don't remember what my earliest memory is

It is about unseen parasitic aliens controlling people to prep them for invasion

Raised ONLY on Tolkien

@Kingfish's son be like "Da Simarrillion or Da Return of the King fo today"

And Star Wars prequels

You are a bold one @Kingfish

I really liked what I read from R. A. Salvatore

Hello there!

Forgotten Realms is a decent cope universe once you've read the greats

@Kingfish are you aware of "Backstroke of the West?"

I read magic tree house as a kid too
