[–] freepor 6y ago ↗ No, he ate so poorly he got scurvy. [–] supercanuck 6y ago ↗ that doesn't make for good business porn though.
[–] olliej 6y ago ↗ It is incredibly hard to get scurvy - you have to actively work to avoid anything that can give you vitamin c.This isn’t a role model, this is dumbass time and dietary decisions.Also: getting scurvy hurts your productivity for quite a while, so again not a good role model.
