"Celeborn was a Sindarin prince of Doriath, being the grandson of Elmo"

Teleporno, son of Pornhubo, brother of xHamster, brother-in-law of Thin-rod.

They also have this weird cousin named Nhentai that nobody wants to acknowledge.

Real time ultra fast (self-?)censorship directly on the data input bus to the brainhole.

Nothing is prefect, let us just pretend this didn't happen just now & lets enjoy the work further.

I'm guessing.

I wouldn't televise mine but you do you celeborn

"Is this one of those illegal channels? It's so blurry you can't even see anything. Oh wait there it is, wow, I thought that was an arm at first."

Look, homie just tryin to make a dollar while competing against hardcore orc porn and hobbit scat fetish. Leave him alone

hobbit porn is just a guy ripping fat tokes on a pipe while gently stroking a rake

Dammit, and I just changed underwear!

As someone who's a fan of the Silmarillion, idk how I never knew this.

Is it pronounced differently? Like Tokyo Sexwale isn't pronounced like you just did in your head.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I don't think so, at least not meaningfully. Obviously it has a different meaning: tel- is seemingly a prefix that means "finish, end, be last", and orn means tree (can also be seen in his other name, Celeborn). So the meaningful pieces would be tel and orn, which means that the p might be less pronounced than an English person would normally do it, but it doesn't make much of a difference.

Tl;dr: he's just named Teleporno ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sorry, as someone who frequently mispronounces everything, I'm not the right person to ask.

If we wanna be pedantic (and I usually do), Pippin’s Real Name is Razanur.

Where is that mentioned? I don't remember it from the books.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago

It's in the appendices. It tells us the authentic Westron names of all the main Hobbits we follow.

RNs will know what the ringtone would be.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

No really, your parents named you that?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

First you have to crank the shaft to get some power & establish signal, then proceed to tell some 75%-of-minimum-wage operator in Mordor who you wish to contact, and only then explain in great detail a rather hot sexual encounter that borders on fantasy.

Such is the daily life of a junior teleporner.

Hey, he earned that name in battle! Wear it proudly!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago (2 children)

What did he do to earn his real name?

[–] [email protected] 32 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Maybe he found some interesting new uses for a Palantir.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It fit (& transmitted) places you wouldn't imagine!!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

Elrond: "Is this... are we inside a cave? It's day outside, but the Palantir itself is the only light. Oh Eru damn it, Celeborn!"

Idk my brother is the Lotr buff and this sent me down a rabbit hole. I guess its just his name in Telerin, but now I can say my brother is wrong about something he is passionate about and that in itself is worth it.
