Ah... nice little capsule illustration of the modern internet there.

I read that headline and the byline, and thought, "Well, that can't possibly be the headline that Vanity Fair used." But then I immediately amended that - in fact, it could be. Sure it's crass and awkward and notably physically impossible, but it's an attention-getter and that's really all that matters now. So I clicked it, and sure enough, that's their headline, in all its provocatively incoherent glory.

But then I got their paywall and I can't even be arsed to bypass it, so that's that.

And onward I scroll...
