There's just something so pathetic about failing to start your dream company called X in 1999, and then twenty years later when your ultra rich buying some other company and renaming it X to try and finally feel like you won, you did it, you made a globally important social media company called x. The struggle is over. At last.
I cannot prove this as it is a theory someone else proposed, but I sincerely believe that his obsession with the letter X is due to the fact that many native African tribes signed away all their rights and privileges with an X mark, since they were illiterate.
Speaking of abusive owner, I saw a Cybertruck in the wild for the first time today. Pictures and videos don't do justice to how fucking atrocious those things are.
I did as well. My housemate that was with me asked if Tesla was doing some sort of promotion where people could just drive the things around. She didn't believe anyone would willingly buy something that looks like it was made for a '70s sci Fi C-movie.
You're correct that videos and pics don't manage to capture the true hideousness of that thing. Can't wait for the lawsuits when someone inevitably runs into a pedestrian with that front wedge. It's also weirdly smaller than I expected it to be. The one I saw parked next to a crossover car/SUV and was barely bigger than that thing.
I’ve been known to deadname the one true church. Joseph Smith named it the Church of Christ, but the Mormon church is going through its little phase 💅 and insists on being called, and get this, no abbreviations allowed,
I got supremely lucky one day when they knocked on my door. I happened to be in the middle of carving up a full beef tenderloin flank into filets and tips, and was expecting company, so I didn't bother cleaning up, putting on a shirt, or even putting the butchers knife down.
So what they got to see was a 6'3" blonde haired, blue eyed, viking looking fucker open the door in shorts with blood covering my arms and the hand I was holding the knife in, (I took the time to wipe off one hand with wipes, dont want blood everywhere), who promptly yelled over his shoulder, "Hey guys you can let the goat go! I just found us a couple of virgins!"
I will happily call it 'X' because it is a stupid name and one of the dumbest decisions Elon has made and tried to enforce. Why are we trying to protect him from his stupidity?
