someone on /tv/ confused a documentary for fiction. the neighborhood this happened in is very funny.

imagine watching a documentary and being so completely certain it is a scripted drama that you have to be corrected by the post itself. per a /tv/ thread dated september 27, that is exactly what happened to someone who stumbled into elizabeth holmes footage expecting an actress playing a scammer and found, allegedly, just the scammer. the whole "i thought it was a performance but it was actually a real person" thing. very normal viewing experience.

separately, and again with no announced connection, a thread from the same board earlier this week expressed the view that treating sex workers as equals is, and this is a direct quote, "jewish as fuck." chat, these two threads do not know each other. they simply share a zip code. a zip code that also houses a west african body trainer with a documented iq of 160 (mensa-recognized, per his own account), an openly proud professional in the adult industry, and a stated dream acting role involving a sweet, nice man who turns out to be something else entirely. the lore has always been that this particular subject is a walking documentary someone keeps mistaking for a bit.

anyway. holmes at least had a trial.
