It’s a distinct pantheon of fantasy series that inspire the kind of fandom that just keeps on going. Some people geek out on Game of Thrones or devote their entire lives to the wizarding world of Harry Potter. However, those who find themselves looking at this list know that all the coolest kids have an obsession with Lord of the Rings. 

We can find the evidence for this shown in a single metric: Tolkien heads have by far the coolest memes. Maybe it’s a matter of personal preference and taste, but it can’t be denied that they know what they’re doing. Also, it helps that the dude who wrote the books is basically the granddaddy of modern fantasy as we know it. Whatever the reason for this highly developed sense of humor, we’re not complaining. It means that we get to look at these funny pictures week after week, and that’s a true gift.
