(It looked like he was suffering much by the Ring's power urging him to turn to greed and hate, and when Gollum began egging him on he lost his temper and had to take it out on poor Sam. I'm not saying it was right, I'm just saying I think I understand. I have some very sweet, kind, understanding, loyal people in my life, yet I can recall more than one time I've taken out my anger on them. It may just be a flaw that makes us human -- or hobbit. )
(Yeah. I'm not sure anyone could withstand that type of evil and stay as good as they were before. Sometimes I pity Gollum, but mostly I don't really like him.)
I like Gollum -- as a villain, I mean. Also, every time I hear him say something like "We hates it!" or "my precious", I can only think of hearing my dad (and Brent Miller, but that's a different story ) imitating him hilariously, so it just makes me grin and want to laugh whenever I see him. It's just a weird quirk I share with my dad.

My brother is very good at impersonating him.
Oh, really? Gollum's just a character who's hard not to impersonate!
Oh, gosh, do you remember that "Brookstone and Baggins" chapter in Runaway? crrrinnnngggeeee yet so funny
*Helps you up while still laughing*
That was so funny! I loved that.
*Laughs so hard tears roll down cheeks*
I re-read that story a couple weeks ago. Man, I forgot how funny that was! Ah, the memories, too. . . that was where you and I really first met, wasn't it?

*We both fall down again laughing so hard*
Ah yes . . . I'd like to re-read that too. Yes, I believe that that was where we first met.
