>> It's just bizarre.
That's what I thought about the New Yorker article about Theranos/Holmes (http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/12/15/blood-simpler http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/12/15/blood-simpler) a while back, where it was said about her: "Her home is a two-bedroom condo in Palo Alto, and she lives an austere life. Although she can quote Jane Austen by heart, she no longer devotes time to novels or friends, doesn’t date, doesn’t own a television, and hasn’t taken a vacation in ten years. Her refrigerator is all but empty, as she eats most of her meals at the office. She is a vegan, and several times a day she drinks a pulverized concoction of cucumber, parsley, kale, spinach, romaine lettuce, and celery."
- jazzyk 11y agoYeah, all the pictures of her in various affected poses, always in black turtleneck...She must have been on more magazine covers than most politicians or celebrities. Such pretentiousness and in-your-face personality cult (of a freshman-year college drop-out, no less)? Perhaps to cover up lack of substance?
