You underestimate the power of the Mirth Forum...
Some of us, not caught up entirely in the vengeance element of repaying the evictions of our favourite characters (heck, I EVICTED my favourite characters), are busy fulfilling the mandate of the forum, and working at killing off characters with as much Mirth as may be...
And to
Folwren & Co.:
'Tis most shameful of you to direct all your anger at Master Saucepan Man, but the fact of the matter is that he is only ONE of those who have been consistently voting off your favourites. He only has ONE vote after all. And while I might have been a willing member of the Anti-Celeborn League, the fact is that I have been eagerly voting off ANY member of the island who is the current favourite (Faramir, Eowyn, Glorfindel, Galadriel...)
And since, in the last week or so, that has been most of the candidates that the Anti-Saucie League has been pushing to keep, that's where I have been voting...
However, since Master Saucepan Man seems to be the only one left with a favourite, it's time for me to turn my bandwaggon around, and point it at Pippin.
Peregrin Took, as we all know, is among the most flippant of hobbits. The case against his lack of seriousness is so concisely put by Gandalf that all I can do is restate it: "Pippin is an incredible Fool of a Took".
In additional to his Foolishness of being a Took, Pippin is also well-known for his weed habit as well as his fungus habit. Merry, the other remaining hobbit, has it as well, but not so bad. One will note that Merry is able to part with his remaining stash of weed when he sees an old man in need of comforting, even though it is rudely received, and he won't see any more until Bree.
So off with the Habit! I mean the Hobbit!!
