Now that Elon Musk has bought Twitter - now the Pit edition (Part 1)

If Musk is even hinting that X “may fail”, that means that X is definitely failing, and spectacularly.

he’s coming down off his latest binge. Like self-induced bipolar illness, coming out of a manic phase.

N.B.: this is not a diagnosis and I am not a doctor.

I watched a YouTube content creator showing their first xvideo they made the other day; it was the first video they made for ‘X’, thus their first ‘xvideo’. I wouldn’t recommend googling the term ‘xvideo’ while you are at work.

Obviously just a side benefit of agile development.

Not sure what function the word “despite” is supposed to serve here.

I don’t think I’ve read it in this thread but…

Has anyone proposed that Elon has made a “Brewster’s Millions” type bet, where he has one year to destroy $44 Billion and have nothing to show for it?

I’ll bet someone’ll unearth the email where Zuckerberg double-dog-dared him…

In fairness, Elmo did not pay $44 billion. He got some other suckers to fork over a few billions. Then, through financial shenanigans he had Twitter take out a $12 billion dollar loan to help buy itself. He’s in for, a not insubstantial, $9 billion of his Tesla stock (which I value microscopically above cryptocurrencies IMHO).

Elmo “self-medicates” with ketamine.

Musk: “Crystal Meth is the answer.”

For what it’s worth I was using “stoned” as a reference to any and all of the various pharmaceuticals Elon is currently enjoying. But if people think that’s too narrowly associated with weed, then feel free to substitute “ripped to the tits.”

Geez, don’t give any ideas to the guy who thinks it’s hilarious to have his PR department reply to emails with poop emojis.

The New Yorker has a new piece on Elmo; “Elon desperately wants the world to be saved. But only if he can be the one to save it.”

I did not immediately notice The Onion at the top of that.

How insane must Elmo be that I believed it.

Same with me. I was just about to go look at the picture when I saw the Onion banner.

Same same. My first thought was “that is so juvenile…very fitting for Elon”.

Make that three. I did go to look at the picture and saw it was the Onion when I opened it. It really sounded just like something he’d do.

Hahaha he is, in fact a genius, he keeps thinking of things that will make it worse that nobody else ever thought of.

I dunno, I like the penis idea better.
