It's a bullish market. Lobbyists who used to just lease a congressman are now buying. --Bill Maher

or, as Samuel L. Jackson calls it, one year of work (at least their error screen was really cute)

“Disney Plus launched today and almost immediately crashed, which is too bad, but at least their error screen was really cute.” --Trevor Noah

“Now, a lot of people are disappointed that they couldn’t watch Disney Plus because, I mean, where else are they going to watch TV now?” --Trevor Noah
