Ironic that Bilbo is so annoyed with the Sackville-Bagginses for stealing from him and trying to evict him from his house, when his whole adventure involves stealing from someone and evicting them from their house.  

To be fair, he was essentially helping someone else get rid of their own Sackville-Bagginses

This is an absolutely world-rocking take on narrative parallels in The Hobbit. Like why yes those were equally petty property disputes, and your point?

Thorin: “The dragon Smaug is terrible beast who has invaded our home and taken the heirlooms of our people as his loot.”

Bilbo: *remembering the last time Lobelia Sackville-Baggins was in his house* “I know the type.”

“Smaug is basically an unusually large Sackville-Baggins” is not the take I expected from the Tolkien fandom today, but it absolutely fits.

(I am also sad that even if Bilbo had called Smaug a Sackville-Baggins to his face, Smaug would lack the background information to know just how he was being insulted.)

Bilbo, facing down Morgoth Bauglir at the Dagor Dagorath: “You broke into the House of Fëanor and stole his gems, which he and his sons cared about very much. I would expect such behaviour from a Sackville Baggins, not one of the Powers of Arda.”
