"It's a comic where JRR Tolkien says "Gandalf" is actually pronounced "Jandalf", a reference to the dumb side of the gif/jif debate. Also someone in the comments posted a denim-clad Gandalf since denim versions of things are often called that thing but with a "J" at the start of the name."

You see though, I would have to explain the gif / jif debate. Then I would have to explain what a gif is

Then I would have to explain what a Gandalf is.

And the way I would have to explain what a Gandalf is, is to remind her of the character with a stick from the lego game where you had to get up to swap characters... But he is also from lord of the rings.

Then I have to explain what lotr is. And how it's different from Harry Potter.

And in the end she would say. "That's stupid"
