Frodo Wears Legolas's Baby Clothes

Text on the meme

When Thorin gave Bilbo the Mithril chainmail shirt, he said it was made for an Elven prince. The only Elven prince that was born in any of the 4 Elven realms since the founding of Erebor is Legolas. Frodo is wearing Legolas's baby clothes in LOTR.

What it means

Frodo Baggins looks down while being dressed in the mithril chainmail shirt by unseen hands. The joke is a Lord of the Rings lore observation: since Legolas is the only Elven prince born after Erebor’s founding, the shirt supposedly belonged to him as a baby, making Frodo wear Legolas’s old baby clothes. It is shared as a humorous deep-cut Tolkien theory and crossover joke between The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
