A humanoid fantasy people created by Tolkien who's primary identifying characteristics are that they are short, have hairy feet and enjoy drinking, eating, and smoking. Hobbits are country-dwelling halflings who form farming communities consisting mostly of their race. While hobbits do form self-sustaining communities, they are known to indulge in laziness, taking many naps.

Hobbits are essentially rural Englishmen, and they are portrayed by Tolkien as decent, hard-working folk. This may have something to do with the fact that Tolkien was an Englishman, and loved nature and the countryside. Keep this in mind when you read about what happened to the Shire at the end of "Return of the King."

Pipeweed

In Tolkien's works, hobbits are fond of smoking a substance referred to as "pipeweed." Although it is clearly stated to be tobacco, most people joke about it being marijuana instead (which is reinforced by the hobbits' gluttonous nature).
