Just to make sure we’re not at cross purposes, I wasn’t bagging on Tolkien (huge fan), simply pointing out that when people think ‘elves’ they go right to Tolkien’s version. And this is fine as far as it goes. But a lot of people seem unaware that elves vary pretty widely depending on the culture that created them.
I’m happy (but unsurprised) that you’re not one of those people.

The only elves worth a shit are the Keebler ones....
And only if they bring cookies..
