It'll buff out
What are you picking?
Pictured: Tweet stating "$10 million right now in your hand, but there's a catch:
- A snail is chasing you for the rest of your life and if it touches you, you die a terrible death.
- the snail cannot be killed
- It knows your location at all times
- its only purpose is to find you You taking the $?"
I'm taking the cash and putting a cardboard box with holes in it over the top of the snail.
It takes a snail 35 hours to travel about 700 metres, I reckon I could out-run that slimy psycho and claim the cash. They only live for a few years, so I'll hang out on my own million dollar island* until it all blows over, then I'll return to normal society.
(assuming I get the 10mil upfront?)
I’d like the $$$&, but then there’s the question of what to do with the snail. Do you keep it confined but close (to supervise), or move to the other side of the world & hope it can’t work out air/sea travel?
Basically this video from Rooster Teeth.

Ok new thread created. Let’s head over! :)
Have to take my dog to get her stitches out today, I hope she doesn’t get too agitated. She normally doesn’t mind the vet, even when they do unspeakable things to her rear end, but after having surgery she is not too keen on going back. When we went to get her bandage removed she vomited. Hopefully today is the last time for a while🤞
Something tells me Patrick Cripps doesn't really shop at Cash Converters. I think that may be a fib.
Still having sporadic internet problems, and went to look in comms box to see what I could find. Comms box is in laundry next to fridge. I opened freezer door and looked in there. This sums up my day so far, and is probably the reason I won't be getting a job in IT anytime soon.
don't beat yourself up, His Lordship is literally one of the biggest SEO experts in the country but if the internet shits out he runs into my office and dances madly in place crying and pointing to the Chrome Dinosaur.
