The Enron parody continues, with flyers around the neighborhood advertising a job fair in Washington Square Park on Thursday for interns to join the fake-revived company.

This Enron has been pushing The Egg, a (fake) at-home nuclear reactor. 

Per CNET
The Egg appears to be part parody and part art project, but there may be something else stirring under the surface. Connor Gaydos is listed as Enron's CEO in the company's articles of incorporation in Delaware... Gaydos is the co-author of a book about Birds Aren't Real, a movement designed as a parody of conspiracy theories. Birds Aren't Real pushes the idea that birds are government spy drones. 
The scandal-plagued Enron, mired in accounting fraud, filed for bankruptcy in December 2001. According to Britannica, the collapse of Enron, which held more than $60 billion in assets, involved one of the biggest bankruptcy filings in U.S. history.
