🔥 This is a TEST of the emergency Beacon System. No aid is called for.
Gondor might not be calling for aid, but I am! sign up for my lord of the rings email newsletter to get updates every week straight to your inbox! visit jrrjokien.com to answer the call!
@joshcarlosjosh I will henceforth think only of this every time the test tone goes off. Thank you for elevating this otherwise obnoxious occurrence.
@joshcarlosjosh In the event of a real emergency, the beacon would be accompanied by the most breathtaking orchestral piece imaginable. And maybe instructions, but not at the expense of the music.
@joshcarlosjosh And where was Gondor when Rohan lost cell service? WHERE WAS GONDOR?
@joshcarlosjosh An emergency alert is never late, nor is is it two minutes early. It arrives precisely when it means to.
@joshcarlosjosh I hope folks with secret beacons remembered to turn those off
@joshcarlosjosh It doesn’t matter, Rohan will still answer!
@joshcarlosjosh 🤣 & don't y'all be coming at me with the "actually, in the books..." I know film differs from book on this detail 😁
@joshcarlosjosh Had this been a real call for aid then the red arrow would have been delivered as well.
@joshcarlosjosh That’s got to be the shittiest job in all of Middle Earth.
@joshcarlosjosh Who’s going to haul the wood up the mountain to reset the beacons? 🥵😆🪵
@joshcarlosjosh @BackwardsFeet Oh no! I turned into a zombie!😱
@joshcarlosjosh I received a red arrow. Was this an error? What should I do with it?
