Betcha one of our members, Ben Bradley, would write some FILK just for this forum if we asked him nicely.

badducky · Mar 7, 2009

So... Here we all are... Asking nicely...

It's short for "Fathers I'd Like to Kill". I think badducky wants more Oedipus-style tragedy in his fantasy.

badducky · Mar 8, 2009

Chuckles, that sounds like you get to be the first one to regale us with your song.

khajidu · Mar 8, 2009

well speaking about filk...
some of my friends, before I met them, went to Disneyworld. They went to "It's a small world" and sung along... but changed the lyrics to something about Klingons and Romulans...

Punch and pie. You can't have a good forum without punch and pie.

That's why we have the cantina. All the punch and pie you want right there, for free.

I'm afraid of the cantina. This guy might tell me his alien friend doesn't like me. Then the guy might tell me he doesn't like me. Things could get out of hand, and eventually I'd have to pull out the lightsaber. That stuff happens to me all the time, and never ends well. You start off the day scaring away sand people, then things just go wrong when you stop for a drink and try to get safe passage to Alderaan.

Hey, you think that's bad? Try having a lightsaber in the spectrum outside visible light! Think mine's ultraviolet, which is why my sword arm boasts an impressive tan. I'm not even sure how long the frickin thing is! Thing could be a No Dachi, and I wouldn't know.

i think mines infared. i just pointed it at a wall and walked forward till it started to melt.

the real problem with these defective invisible ones is that you can't tell if they are on. have a few scars on my leg from putting them up while on.

khajidu · Mar 9, 2009

There sould be a light somewhere when it's on.

Fenika · Mar 9, 2009

There is. Also in UV. Get avian eye implants :tongue

I admit to being new to filk... but do my middle earth christmas carols count?

The Fields of Pelennor
Orcs are near, can you hear them?
Nazgul fly, do you fear them?
The battle is nigh
tonight we will ride
Fighting on the fields of Pelennor.

Gimli's axe, it is ringing
Legolas' bow, hear it singing
A beautiful sight
we're winning tonight
Fighting on the fields of Pelennor.

In the rubble they have built a tower
and they move it closer to the wall.
Denethor is raving like a madman
but with Gandalf here we know we'll never fall

Later on, we'll perspire
as we clash in the fire
there's victory tonight
everything is alright
Fighting on the fields of Pelennor.

RSD · Mar 10, 2009

dclary, nice... very nice. Tell me you sing that in the voice of Gollum at Christmas parties. Any way you can fit "my precious" into your next one?
