People talk about Lolita like Humbert Humbert is a conflicted and dichotomous character and then you read the actual book and he's like "I love lying to people for fun and getting lost in flights of wild imagination and making things up and telling falsehoods. Also I look like a bunch of movie stars and every woman in the stories I tell thinks I'm darkly handsome."

things about middle-earth that sound fake to people who haven't read the silmarillion
the earth was flat until some people pissed off god enough that he punched it round
the sun and moon used to be trees, but a big spider ate them
elves even being in middle-earth can be traced back to one (1) dude hating that people mispronounced his mom's name
sauron is a werewolf
elrond's biological parents are a star and a bird now
there's a sexy vampire lady
fighting a balrog barehanded is so cool it'll get you reincarnated right away even if there isn't a current big crisis going on (sorry gandalf, glorfindel just did it better)
satan got banned from heaven for playing his own music too loud
if you were intense enough in life, when you die, you might literally explode
