quaecumque from QUORA

his lonely motto: "i will sherriff and they will come!"

somewhere near what used to be The Three Nuns pub in Huddersfield, just around the corner from the scrapyard where The Yorkshire Ripper once stole some registration plates is one of the many dubious sites of Robin Hood's grave. It's obviously bollox but it used to frequently come up in conversation. I once told an uncle from Dublin about it while we were drinking at the Three Nuns but he was more amused at the juxtaposition of the "buy 2 get 1 free" banner next to the pub sign in the car park.

I asked ChatGPT

Why wasn't Hitler a balrog?

Hitler was not a balrog because balrogs are fictional creatures from the fantasy world of Middle-earth, created by J.R.R. Tolkien. Hitler was a real historical figure and the leader of Nazi Germany during World War II. He had no supernatural powers or abilities and was not a mythical creature.
James Errington

Why wasn't Sauron a balrog?

Sauron was not a balrog either because, like Hitler, Sauron is a fictional character from the fantasy world of Middle-earth created by J.R.R. Tolkien. In the story, Sauron was a powerful dark lord and the main antagonist of the "Lord of the Rings" series. Balrogs were powerful demons that served Sauron, but Sauron himself was not a balrog. He was a Maia, a spirit of fire and magic, and took on various forms throughout the story, including that of a giant flaming eye.

Oops, my actual name seems to be in there for some reason

nice to meet you, Sauron!

spent too long deliberating over whether to go for Tolkien or Sauron

At least I'm not a balrog or Hitler I guess

Q: Why does Putin always keep his right arm still when he walks, only swinging the left one?
A: Putin's way of walking comes from his training with the KGB
