Scam artist and the elixir of immortality

14 comments

No one said the scam part was that the elixir didn't work.

Keanu Reeves has been tracking him for centuries.
- woah.

Quite the scam length there.

“Which himself named it”
Words good authoring there
- back in the day news papers were like long tweets.
  it cost extra for more words/characters.
  so they remove/replace ones that didn't break context. 👈 like I did here. removed 8 words but preserved the idea.
  
  But just saying “which he named” would be less characters and make more sense

He obviously didn't sell the real stuff but used it for himself. Is there an equivalent to "don't get high on your own supply"? "Don't sell away what you need at bay"?
- Don't tender the life extender?

This is similar to an X-files's episode plot: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeeze_(The_X-Files)
Highly recommend it :)
- I really loved the x files. From S1 to 6 it was one of the best shows in history.

Lmao, cost of doing business.

There can be only one
