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.

Ah, but snails can eat through cardboard. Haven’t you ever had them eating your mail?

Basically this video from Rooster Teeth.

Edit: Wow yeah apparently this is a meme on TikTok last year or something. I feel like such an early adopter to a meme.

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?)

Any recommendations of a night club in or near Carlton? Planning to go together with my wife, it's our first time.

Something tells me Patrick Cripps doesn't really shop at Cash Converters. I think that may be a fib.

Never would have guessed. He looked so convincing in the ad.

I guess that applies to Jeremy Cameron too.

Teaches me to trust commercials!
