Well yeah, but Jukka was complaining about MCs making stupid decisions so I pointed out that Frodo is an MC who makes a lot of stupid decisions.

@Søren Are the It's Time from "It's Time" and the one from "Continued Silence" exactly the same song or are they different versions?
In fact, mind telling me about all of the duplicate titles from here?

"Understood." Will looked at Nico. "Will you be my buddy?"

@Jet the binturong Yes, I think that all of the "It's Time"s are the same. They first released it in the "It's Time" EP, then included it in "Continued Silence", then finally put it in the first album "Night Visions". A lot of those early songs before Night Visions were included multiple times in different EPs. All of those from Continued Silence and the other early EPs are the same as when you see them in the album Night Visions

@Cornflower MM I finished the TID thingy.
Spoiler

Any guesses?

@Lord Ashenwyte I don't know if you've read TID, but if you have, feel free to try as well.

Jessamine
Sophie!
Camille?
De Quincy?
Could that be Nate? I can't remember what hes supposed to look like, darn.
And after that, I'm lost until Ragnor. I NEED TO RE-READ BADLY.
All correct, and then after Nate it's:
Mortmain,
Aloysius Starkweather,
Benedict Lightwood,
Gideon,
Gabriel,
Cecily,
Ragnor (who you got),
and Woolsey Scott (I would have given him a monocle, but that's not an option).


Ohhhh, okay. Dang it I should have gotten Gideon, Gabriel, and Cecily! Ugh.

Frodo makes a lot of stupid decisions though.

And also one of the most irritating characters on the planet.

No, not Mortmain, because I honestly couldn't remember what he looks like. :P

Dreams, dreams are untapped and writhing. How much more real are dreams than that paltry existence which we now call reality? How shall we ascend to that which humanity is destined? By mastering the dreamworld of course. That is how, my pupils, that is how.

Why is Frodo so irritating?

Because he's whiny, makes awful decisions, and he gets all the credit when really Sam's the hero. Have anything else to add, @Jet the binturong?

Jetthebinturong

Nah that's pretty much it.

Also keeping Gollum on a leash. I mean, Gollum's evil, but you can't do that to a person.

That might not be in the books though, I can't remember; it's been ages since I read them.

Oh yeah, that too. You know, I can't remember either.

The Skarzs

I'm talking about the book Frodo, not the wimp in the movies. . .

Delthion

Same.

Which bad decisions did Frodo make Jet? And no he didn't get all the credit, remember what Sam was thinking in the very end of the book? He was angry because Frodo WASN'T getting any acknowledgement for his task. Sam, Pippin and Merry were getting all of the credit even though Sam didn't want any!

Again I can't remember many of the specifics because it's been a while since I read the books, but I remember getting really annoyed with Frodo.

In the films, the one that immediately comes to mind is leaving the group in Fellowship and also sending Sam away. I understand that he was under the influence of the Ring, but it was really annoying. Honestly Sam should have been given the Ring, I don't think he'd be very easy to corrupt.

I finished my 30 Seconds to Mars and Imagine Dragons playlists. I think I'll probably do Linkin Park next.

Me with many Imagine Dragons songs:
I hate this song. *Reaches the one minute mark* This song is really cool. *Adds to playlist*

Does anyone else think "I'm So Sorry" sounds like a Fall Out Boy song?
