But the bad plot isn't necessarily Paolini's fault. It was intended to be 2 books then split into 2, so, naturally, some plot elements are going to be missing.

I never knew it was intended to be two books. It does make sense now! -high five-

But at least now I will always be reminded of Canis Lupus sounding like cannabis, and not lupus disease.

Greetings, wonderful user whose name reminds me of cannabis.


Ah. Now I know who is a . . .Cannabis-head. Maybe. But at least now I will always be reminded of Canis Lupus sounding like cannabis, and not lupus disease.

Never tried it. I've only heard that it smells disgusting, but not as bad as cigarette smoke. :ermm:

Oh man. The 13th most important! How exciting. Now I just need a hand shake from the most important members, and I'd feel special.

Cigarettes do smell disgusting. And taste disgusting. And has a lot of additives. Cannibis, is all natural :D.

Um no, since it's not regulated, you really have no idea what's been put in it to beef it up. Unless you're considering growing it yourself, which I wouldn't recommend. Plus faster growth = more money, so you can bet it'll be laced with pesticides.
