Groupon banned from selling SNAKE OIL

Neat, because every cosmetic has only temporary effects

because most people die well before the sun becomes a red giant.

But it MUST work!

I mean, when was the last time you saw a wrinkly snake?

The original snake oil did work...

...it was the ripoffs that didn't:

"Of course, most 19th-century snake oil salesmen did not, in fact, sell this particular product. Even those hucksters who did sell actual snake oil would likely have sold the rattlesnake variety, nearly useless for any ache-relieving medicinal purpose. But the original Chinese purveyors of snake oil offered something that probably did exactly what they claimed it would do: help fellow workers relieve the pain of their labors."

"It is but a tiny step away from penis enlargement pills and herbal Viagra."

You mean that these AREN'T going to work? Damn! Hope I can get a refund.
