We all know LOTR is a large sexual and Hitler reference.

I hate liberals. If you are a liberal, do not reply.
I didn't post the details because it would be too much to put in a slashdot post. I guess I was wrong to assume that a slashdot reader would have enough intelligence to use a search engine. My bad.
