Yes, I am truly awesome.
And come now, Guy. Pippin was not involved. The taint lies not with him, but his sister. Sure, go ahead and sprout conspiracy theories (I enjoy them, please do), but Pippin is the least dirtied of the hobbits. Frodo was tainted by the Morgul Blade, and the One Ring. Sam was tainted by the Ring during his short use, and probably other things. Merry was soiled (and probably soiled himself
) when he stabbed good ole Wiki (bless the Wiki's heart). Bilbo was tainted by the Ring, as well, and for a longer time than Frodo. What did Pippin do? He looked into the Palantir. That's not that bad.
