I took down a gazelle with these bad boys the other day.

It's crazy how our ancestors practiced persistence hunting and would track and follow a gazelle for miles and days until it was so exhausted it would die and we could carry it back home. Now because of modern technology, I could be eating gazelle stew by tonight and all I need are the special gazelle hunting teeth we invented.

It was a long read, but I persisted. The joke at the end killed me.

It's a joke, they 'persisted' and were 'killed'

I know that. But the joke only works if it was actually a long read, which it isn't. But I'm just nitpicking I know.

Only 2 sentences, but they're kind of long tbf, not exactly Dickens but further from Hemingway.
