If Gandalf instead of Aragorn had been in charge at the Battle of the Black Gate:
Orc: Excuse me, oh Dark Lord?
Sauron: What is it???
Orc: There's someone to see you at the Morannon.
Sauron: Is it the Armies of the Free Peoples of the West, bringing me my One Ring?
Orc: No, Lord. It's two dwarves. They say they've come for tea.

Before the Fellowship departs Rivendell, Sam is gloomily talking to Bill the Pony.
" 'Bill, my lad,' he said, 'you oughtn't to have took up with us. You could have stayed here and et the best hay till the new grass comes.' Bill swished his tail and said nothing."

Tolkien's subtle humor tho.

"Though the Stewards deemed that it was a secret kept only by themselves, long ago I guessed that here in the White Tower, one at least of the Seven Seeing Stones was preserved."

What Could Have Been: The Topless Forest
At one point, Tolkien considered a very different name for Fangorn Forest, one which, ahem, would also have a problematic (and hilarious) secondary meaning.
"Owing to Boromir's treachery and Frodo's use of Ring the hunt fails. Merry and Pippin are distracted by loss of Sam and Frodo. They themselves get lost following echoes. They come to Entwash and the Topless Forest, and fall in with Treebeard and his Three Giants." --"The Story Foreseen From Moria," The Treason of Isengard, p. 210.
I wonder if Teleporno hangs out in the Topless Forest a lot...

It's only called Rivendell because Elrond's Daycare and Orphanage doesn't have that Elvish feel to it.

Tolkien's names are just incredible... the same man who named his ocs Elmo and Teleporno also took names from the periodic table AND came up with brilliance like Makalaure and Anarion. 聽 also he invented grond
