It might explain why he couldn't get any hair from Gladeriel.

Interesting. From what I recall reading, the "favorite" misspelling by 1950's "critics" was "Borimor" ... 😁

The Tolkien communities on tumblr have a handle on this.
I dread to think how accurate this will be.

Reminds me of something I read about in the office (so quite a few years ago by now; or did I read it in "Dilbert" somewhere ... 🤔 ?).
Except the bingo squares were filled with management catchphrases that were mostly close to meaningless (and almost all derived from the occasional "visitation" by consultants). Nominally when the manager pontificating spouted three (?) catchphrases that were in a row or column (that's how bingo works, isn't it? I've never played ...), the "winner" calls out the name of the game - no, not "bingo" in this case, sort of the first name.
Translated into slightly politer terms, the name was called "bovine-droppings bingo". 😜
