You mean LOTR isn't accurate to life! And here I was looking for hobbits around every corner!

Hmm. I think I've changed since I was sixteen, but probably not as much as you have. I don't really think of my sixteen year old ideas as being warped in any case. :p It was more that although I knew what right and wrong were back then, I was far more likely to do the wrong thing just to be contrary. Whereas now, I'm a bit more circumspect. I hope.

Maybe that's what growing up is all about. Learning to shut up when necessary.
