Dinner party copycat, Uber with guns & fleeing family vloggers 👀🍿🧃
Hi Wrecklings!
Are we all ok after seeing the new photos of Luigi in court? Because dang.
But also, hello. It’s Wreck List Christmas! Fyre Fest 2 tickets are officially on sale… with the only specifics about what to expect being: “FYRE Festival 2 is an electrifying celebration of music, arts, cuisine, comedy, fashion, gaming, sports, and treasure hunting—all set in the stunning location of Isla Mujeres, Mexico. Experience unforgettable performances, immersive experiences, and an atmosphere that redefines creativity and culture.”
With the festival being only 3 months away and virtually no details, there’s no way this could be good. I’m thinking VERY expensive farmers market vibes.
So… with that… I seriously wonder…
