All together now..

"And they plighted their troth and were glad."

... you say "Yo!  I done found it!" when you come across a seedling of the
White Tree.

... the Loremaster of the Houses of Healing gives you a long speech about
why it's important to "scrub in".

... the Tale of Years records that your granpappy was "slain by trolls"
but it conveniently fails to document that he was gambling with them (and
winning a little too much).

... your coronation speech is an announcement that you and your descendants
are here to stay until the end of the world.  (Trailer park, indeed!) 

... your parents married so young that even the Elves took note.
