Kinja'd!!!

Between the old codgers bludgeoning young’uns dreams on forums and the people trying to say that Tolkeins dwarves (who write with freaking runes, have names ripped straight from Norse mythology, and who use the Gaelic word for “fort” for “fort”) should speak with a “Hebrew” or “Semitic” accent, I must officially resign my post on the webs for today.

Eye bleach for your time:

Yeah, I saw that... Fucking stupid.

Dwarves are from Germanic mythology, I’m guessing they sound Scottish because it fits better than a Swedish or Norwegian.

I think they sound great in the movies with a Scottish voice, but I think I always imagined them as Germanic for that reason.

Bet it was because of the noses. People key on faces when they have no other information to fill in their blanks and they’re too lazy to go find some. Guess that’s partly why bigotry and racism go together

Whoever dared to suggest something so stupid should probably think about the fact that JRRT was a scholar of Old English (then called “Anglo-Saxon”) and was very much into Old Norse and old Germanic languages and culture etc.

Even “Lord of the Rings” is an old kenning for “king”.

Besides... talk about racial profiling, right?

Where is that magnificent piece of writing?
