What if its desire was to be so big that it can pick humans as if they were grains?
Sounds pretty dangerous, I can understand why they didn’t want to risk it.

For the answer to that question, you need to read Interview with Sméagol: The Secret Account of the True Ringbearer and All the Things Nasty Hobbitses should Never Ever Ask, unfortunately Frodo threw that into Mount Doom along with the ring because it contained knowledge no mortal man should ever possess.
Well, it could also be that it only works differently on HIM
Well, then why not put that chicken on a cat, and the cat on a dog, and the dog on a donkey, and then ride all up into Mordor full Bremen Town Musicians style?
Better safe than sorry…
Yes, but without a control group we cannot really rule out whether this is race thing or a personality thing.
For instance, what effect would it have had on Boromir and Aragorn? How about Gimli? It’s possible it would have made both of the former stronger, for instance, and made Gimli incredibly rich, because that’s what their races desired. We don’t really know, do we?
It had the same effect on Bilbo and Gollum, though. The idea of its effects being dependent on race cannot be ruled out just yet.
Well, that’s just wearing it on a necklace with extra steps.
Perhaps he had a very long zoom lens
Now that you say it, I don’t remember the book ever really getting into what effects it might have on other races. All we know is it makes hobbits invisible, and that it had no effect whatsoever on Tom Bombadil. No one else got a chance to try it on if memory serves me correctly (the elves refused, the humans weren’t allowed, and the orcs never got near enough).
It’s been many years since I’ve read it however, so I’m happy to be corrected.
The black part:

That’s a good question, but I don’t remember Bilbo having to strip naked after putting it on so he wouldn’t appear as a self-animated set of clothes floating around
Well, first of all, the ring makes you invisible
I guess they must use their magic to pull the trigger…
Your joke, but funny:

Perhaps, but it might be illegal
Joke’s on you, I pronounce it females
You mean Hallopinyos?

I mean, it’s basically an egg pie with cheese and/or bacon, how could it not be delicious?
Walks in with a burrito
“Behold, a Calzone”
Walks in with a hot dog
“Behold, a taco”
Walks in with an enchilada

They had Better Than Bouillon on sale at my grocery store the other day, so I stocked up
