Putin thinks he is Mithradates

Be careful what you eat and drink. The age of poison as a component of political policy has returned.

Wasn't Mithradates secret that he built up his own tolerance for poisons for years and years so nobody could poison him, while he poisoned everybody else? Something like that.

Well he's about to get his fucking ass handed to him. He's a jumped up little KGB agent running an over-sized gas station in the middle of fucking nowhere.

It wasn't a secret. Everybody was doing things like that R3. Every castle had a poison garden and every noble had professional tasters. Indeed one reason for Mithradates' wealth was he controlled the world's largest arsenic mines at a time when everyone wanted arsenic. Unfortunately, arsenic builds up instead of establishing tolerance.
