Bad thing about the shire is, in the books particularly, I get the feeling that the Hobbits are super judgy and talk shit about each other constantly behind their backs.
Which, given that the shire is so small and insular, checks out. What else are they talking about after they finish up about the weather or wondering when Gandalf will show up with fireworks again.
I don’t think it’s canon but didn’t Tolkien write sequels where the Hobbits are forced out of the shire by the expanding humans, eventually turning back into the nomadic harfoots they once were?
The Shire. I’d just live in my Hobbit hole, eat second breakfasts, and take long walks. Peaceful!

There’s definitely a hobbit HOA and they definitely suck.
