Who Would Use It: Boromir We all know that Boromir gets straight to the point... Too soon? You see what you want and you go for it with this straight talking, you're smoking chat up line. Perhaps you should time it well so you don't leave too much of a gap between 'balrog' and 'because', otherwise they might get majorly offended. Who wouldn't want to be compared to some monstrous shadow demon who was responsible for being scary and killing Gandalf? No one, but everyone wants to be smoking.
