Everywhere they went people were getting kidnapped, orcs were invading, trees were coming to life, and the dead were rising. Id want to be far away from that elevator.

They probably wouldn't be that familiar with the workings of a lift either

Only one of them.

So ackshually...

Aragorn was descended from Elros who was a half-elf, but that was so long ago he may or may not be a full man depending on how racist one is about miscegenation.

Legolas was an elf and Gimli was a dwarf, so explicitly not Men.

How about Eomer and Faramir instead?

Men as in males, yes.

Men as in humans, mostly no

Elros and Elrond had a choice as to become Eldar or Edain. Elrond chose Eldar, while Elros chose Edain. Once they chose their mixed nature was resolved.

I'd also go for Data, Riker, and LaForge.

You need O’Brien to act as a lightning rod for any misfortune.

Arnold's got a decent number of allegations against him, but Andre would protect you so I guess it's honestly a freebie for the other two if he's in the mix.

I can't believe how jacked Arnold is here. It's truly remarkable.

Let's be real. We're all NPCs so if any of the men are from something with action, we'll probably end up dead. My pick would be Bob Ross, Mr. Rogers, and Steve Irwin. Super calming and chill

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year ago

I tried to come up with a counter argument and realized pretty quickly that I didn’t want to.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 9 points 1 year ago

I mean, they're objectively correct.

I'd choose: Boromir, Ned Stark, and Sean Bean.

No way anything bad can happen to me with those magnets around.

[-] Baylahoo@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 year ago

The whole elevator would just crash through the foundation. You'd be collateral when Death gets a 3 for 1 final destination style.

The fact that they had to go to fictional characters is significant.

We're in the LOTR community, the sample may be a little biased

Good point!

Okay, real world examples from me (notably, a big dude, so y'know, probably not as in tune to things as I could be):

Bernie Sanders My brother My Uncle

... I... Really thought I'd have better options until I really started thinking about it

He's 87 years old at the start of LOTR.
He descends from Elros the Half-Elf.

[-] eyes@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

He's got Elven heritage. He's the 64th descendant of Elros, brother of Elrond. I think he's also decendend from a Maiar as Elros and Elrond's great great grandmother was Melian.

Somewhat related: that's a dream blunt rotation right there

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 13 points 1 year ago

I feel like Gimli would hog it, Aragorn would obviously be awesome, and Legolas would be chill but you could tell he's thinking your weed sucks, he's got a much better connection.

[-] tetrachromacy@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Gimli, it's a blunt, not a microphone
