It's about lineage and family houses. Galadriel is the daughter of Feanor's half-brother, so there is a blood relationship, but she is certainly not part of the House of Feanor, which is kind of implied by "the family of".

No nerdshaming pls. I am nitpicky but not bitter.


I'm not sure why "family of" implies "House of."


His exact words are "She is one of the family of Feanor". It's important to note that there is a major schism between the sons of Finwe (Feonor his first son is a jerk, and Finwe has two other sons with his second wife). Galadriel is the daughter of the youngest son, and she hates Feanor's guts.

Again I said "not quite true", it's not outright wrong but it's a bit off.

I don't know (nor do I really care) what Colbert said, but you come off as extremely petty here. You're like those people who lose out on all matters of substance and then respond with "well technically..." followed by some inane, trivial point like the one you're making here.

Family has a very clear definition. Galadriel is Feanor's niece. Galadriel is Feanor's family.

Are you just really jealous that Colbert is famous and happens to know Tolkien lore?

The whole fun of trivia is attention to trivial points...

No I'm not jelly of Colbert, I think he's great. I wasn't making a big deal of the slight gaffe just pointing it out.

I am surprised I missed a Tolkien argument.

Nobody ever says family of X in reference to elven shit. You say house of X.

OK the only way to resolve this is for all of you to download QuizUp and we can have a Bo101 in the Lord of the Rings category.

Wait who is participating? Ketara and I were in agreement so the only thing to resolve is that Cheep is a heretic.

That moment you realize Req has a duster for the purposes of dealing with heresy. I bet he has a fancy hat too.

Also, pfft LotR trivia, Star wars trivia is where it is at.
