Pretty self-explanatory poll: where is this vile creature lurking at this very moment?

I think Golum is hiding in a bowl of red beans....

Or maybe in Louis Farrakhans anus....

What is Golum? A character from the story Lord of the Rings which was popular for many years...

BTW: Was it necesary to say L-rd of the Rings? I don't think that we need to respect that name because it is not Hashems name.

Actually I was not sure if Lord is automatically filtered, and I was not sure if Jews can spell it out, so I figured just as well. I intended nothing blasphemous or idolatrous.

I was not implying that you did... I think the rules are often misunderstood. I think that the word we use for the Shem/Name when we daven, and we don't say the four letter name, is the word for L-rd. But I don't think that that name would be used for Lord of the Rings. If I am wrong please correct me...

Right. When you're not talking about Hashem you are supposed to say god or lord. When talking about Hashem you say G-d or L-rd.
