A comm for Lord Of The Rings Memes!

Rules:

  1. Follow the ToS of Piefed.social

  2. Don't be too rough with each other! We're here to appreciate, and sometimes lightly rib, Tolkien's fantastic creation, and all of its derivative works. Arguments happen, but remember, in the words of Tolkien, that food and cheer and good song are what make a merrier world!

  3. AI content will be removed at moderator discretion. We ultimately want to keep AI content in this comm to a minimum, so while unknowingly sharing an AI meme might not always merit a removal, things like AI videos and the like will generally be removed.

A loincloth passes between the legs, covering your junk. The "flaps" are just the ends of the fabric...

Apparently, in The Hobbit, Gollum is described as turning out his pockets, and in LotR, he's described as having ragged garments.

If the movie can invent a loincloth, then we in the audience can decide it's a magic loincloth that never reveals anything from any angle.

No magic needed. It's a normal loincloth, where it's one strip of cloth. The middle part holds your junk and the flaps are just the loose ends hanging over the belt.

That's how a loincloth works!?

OP demonstrating their lack of understanding of what a loincloth is.

It's a shower curtain for your peepee parts, right?

There's a reason Sam inexplicably got gayer and gayer for Frodo.
