Truth is stranger than fiction, so they say. But honestly, that's really underselling it, because shit's real fuckin strange.
Pretty sure about 8 years ago the Onion started writing plain news, and in the last year or so they've moved on to writing the laws of the universe.
I didn’t think this phrase would be so prevalent though. Did previous generations go through the same thoughts?

I wouldn't count out Trump jumping into the mix to weirden things up, either.
EDIT: some comments there point out that Snoop Dogg apparently has a history too, so the image is probably a little misleading, but still...
"Hey, Diddy"
"Hey, Coinman"
I really need to rewatch that show
as does everyone
Two morally confused egotistical millionaires (billionaires?) scheming together in a jail cell? This can not be good.
You forgot sex fiends.
The safe word is "harder."
Send baby oil.
Idk if the commissary can keep that much baby oil on site.
Hahaha isn't that place known to be pretty rough?
I love it when evil rich people have to suffer. Its like the best kind of justice. Actual justice.
The wiki page for the prison is pretty interesting. Quite the rogues gallery of convicts who have had a stay there!
Man you weren't kidding. The NXIVM sex slavery guy, bunch of mafia guys, R Kelly.
I started looking up other federal prisons. There is one at Terminal Island in the Port of Los Angeles that had such a reputation as Club Fed that they had to add barbed wire and armed guards in the 80s for PR purposes. Al Capone had a stay there.

I was thinking more of Frank Reynolds from It's Always Sunny.
It was the T-800
Holy shit, I thought this was a joke.
They share a dormitory with other inmates in a prison notorious for bad conditions. By American Standards.
I love you Philip Morris this is not.
The movie that ended with the main character being tortured?
Why
What are the odds of two billionaires sharing a jail cell? Has it ever happened before? Or I guess SBF is a former billionaire on paper so maybe he doesn't count. Either way, its nice to see the legal system locking up monsters.
Idk but it still hasn’t happened.
Diddy was never worth that much and SBF’s worth was built on lies.
