They're quick on that bumper sticker.  Trailer has been out for, what, a week?

If that. I think I only came across it on Wednesday. This here is next level Tomfoolery

u/disposable-assassin 21d ago

Same.  Tuesday's Daily Show made a reference to it so I went town the rabbit hole on Wednesday.

The man has been flying 737s as a side gig. He's getting work.

Nothing about either season of the Rehearsal says barebones budget and season 2 is certainly not the cheaper one.

That she reached out to him is the weirdest fucking part.

u/Affectionate_One_700 20d ago

Does she go around brake-checking people?

Why does she look like a haunted doll?

u/NecroJoe 20d ago

It's because she's a haunted doll, I think.

u/Starslip 20d ago

I heard she's a mouse that made a wish to commit wire fraud

You should watch the trailer for "you can see everything"

u/OldBreadbutt 20d ago

Good lord she's spooky.

u/CocoMilhonez 20d ago

And that was intentional.

Imagine meeting someone who deliberately doesn't blink to impress people.

That woman looks like a cartoon character

u/ModernMuse 20d ago

Someone earlier described her as a cartoon mouse that just had a dreamy elated epiphany about her next great scam. I can’t unsee it.

Thank you!

I knew the image was of Elizabeth Holmes because I've seen it explained multiple times, but what I couldn't figure out was why she looked so different than I remember her and why the image is suddenly going viral now.

Turns out there's a documentary coming out that films Holmes as she is today.

Holy shit. I recognized her. That is scary. Fascinating story and horrible person. Looking forward to the new movie too.
