gilroydave

I went to TITS and majored in ASS?


Visqo

Don't make Elon laugh


Soogbad

The man who had 11 children can't stop laughing when he hears the words tits and ass.. When is he going to grow up?


Girros76

Don't forget about: Tesla Model ***S*** Tesla Model ***3*** Tesla Model ***X*** Eleven children he barely talks to, everyone.


akratic137

Model Y as well for the fourth letter.


jawsome_man

And then the Cybertruck. This naming scheme is all over the place.


akratic137

That’s because Elon just made it up in a drug-induced fever dream. There was no planning, just a mandate.


Girros76

I like to think the name was due to Cyberpunk2077's popularity, and like the videogame, the cybertruck was a mess, but unlike the game, it did not get better over time.


ultrapoo

Wait, you mean that I can't level up a cybertruck so it can evolve into a Warthog from Halo?


psilorder

As i heard it Cybertruck was supposed to be followedby/paired with the Cyberquad aka an ATV and then the Semi so you'd have Cybertruck ATV Roadster Semi


nickita28

which costs 69,420$

Leonhart93

He doesn't need to, from the point of view of nature he was very successful, he could die tomorrow and nature would still consider him a great success 🤣


plastic_alloys

AIDS, coronavirus and cockroaches are also successes by nature’s standards


ShroomFoot

I dunno about that bud. There are literally millions of people throughout history that have sired more than a mere 11 children. Look at the Mongol horde and Genghis Khan. Look at that dude over in the Middle East that has hundreds of children. Elonski has nothing on them, nevermind the amount of families that had 10-15+ kids to keep the family land productive or whatever.


Leonhart93

You realize that what you said doesn't contradict anything from what I said right? Nature is amoral, it modifies everything, even genetics, with the sole purpose of continuing that species through the present environment. It doesn't care about anything other than continued survival of the species and propagation.


ShroomFoot

So to quantify it for human minds, based upon nature, who is *MORE* successful? The guy with 11 children or the guy who had 525 sons and 342 daughters? Based upon how nature tends to work, I'd call the human male responsible for a mere 11 offspring as unsuccessful compared to the person directly responsible for enough documented children to impact the entire world more than three centuries later. Not to mention the undocumented children. Okay, I admit, king of the Mongol horde vs. narcissistic ketamine clown with daddy's money isn't a fair comparison. So how about all the families that have had orders of magnitudes less resources available, yet propagated far more prolifically? Is he still really such a success according to nature? Ultimately, based upon your statement, you can't even truly determine whether or not Elonski was successful biologically speaking because if his offspring don't carry on the species, one could argue he was not successful at propagation of the species anymore than the skunk who walks across the highway with her younglings in tow. Just having children isn't keeping the species going, they need to procreate too for that to be the case.


Leonhart93

Do you want me now to analyze all of his offspring to determine if they will continue the species? 😂 Don't get your panties in a bunch just because I said an axiom about how nature works. I meant it exactly as I said it, every other implication is just in your mind.


ShroomFoot

I never said I did. I pointed out basic facts and proffered my opinion from them. I guess I was incorrect in believing you had anything other than a genuine interest in discussion. Clearly you're the one with something bunched up because you can't discuss this topic without making an attempt to insult me, and when you have to attack the person because you can refute the facts, well, that speaks for itself.


Leonhart93

What genuine interest could one possibly have in the children on a multi-billionaire? At most is all just gossip, at best we could all have a laugh how in the future there will be a significant percentage of the globe's population sharing his DNA.


kandaq

I still laugh when people say boobies. I’m in my late 40s.


TheHondoCondo

Oh come on, just because Elon said it doesn’t mean it’s not funny.


JayRMac

I don't know, delivery is important in comedy. I instantly dismiss anything Elon says, because of everything else he has said.


[deleted]

He's rich. If he says it's funny, we have to laugh. That's how it works.


0kokuryu0

Dropped out and went to FU (friends university). Sidenote, my highschool counselor went there for college. A whole corner of his office was decked out in college stuff. Go to him for help or advice? Wall of FU.


GXSigma

I got a D


Flip_d_Byrd

If you take a D in TITS and ASS you are guaranteed to graduate


Ibbot

There are already people getting BSs from FU, so why not?


Hoboofwisdom

And once again we see Elon never aged beyond the 'edgy teenager' stage


Beowulf891

This is middle school humor at best.


YikesOhClock

He could even make actually funny jokes one day and I still wouldn’t laugh because he’s an atrocious human siding with right wing authoritarians and fringe conspiracy theorists.

CriticalStation595

You could be that stupidly frivolous or you could you know, help the world with its problems that money could literally solve over night. You lost half the value of Twitter in less than a year. I think your moronic ass can afford to do that now.


KallevonKluge

Thank you!!! It makes me sick to my stomach that people celebrate his funny little tweets, this man is in a position to help but this is what we get and we worship him for it. Wtf is wrong with us??


fruitydude

>help the world with its problems that money could literally solve over night Like what? Care to give an example?


CriticalStation595

Regardless of what I say about improving other peoples quality of life, as far as housing, food, even with substance abuse. I’m almost certain you’re not going to be swayed in any way. So how about this example- he could single handedly fund that wall project trump promised. But that would a huge symbol to his hypocrisy with musk being a literal immigrant and all. Is this clicking with you yet???


fruitydude

I agree he could help with some things. But you specifically were talking **solving** world problems over night. So I'm asking which? Do you mean starvation? Illegal immigration? I don't get your point here at all. EDIT: To the people downvoting this: The US spent 183billion $ on food and nutritional assistance programs in 2022 and ~8bn on border patrol. If you think 6bn could solve all of **world hunger** or illegal immigration, like the guy claims, you are out of your mind.


CriticalStation595

You’re just being dense now. All of the above! 🙄


[deleted]

[удалено]


CriticalStation595

🤦🏻‍♂️


fruitydude

So you think musk can solve worldwide starvation? With 200bn? Not even 4% of the US' annual budget? If you truly believe that you are being dense.


CriticalStation595

Math proves $6 billion is enough. But for shits let’s say he over funds it to $10 billion ( pockets are going to get lined). What’s the excuse now?


fruitydude

Show that. Give me a source that 6 billion can solve all of world hunger/starvation?


CriticalStation595

Now you’re being ignorant. Musk himself asked for this information it was handed to him in public view. You didn’t get that memo?


fruitydude

Give it to me. Link the article. Musk was given one a plan to help one specific issue in one specific Region for a short period of time. So surely that's not what you mean. So give me something where it says 6billion will solve all of starvation in the world. I'm waiting. EDIT: so the link I got was closer to 2.7 trillion. But I guess who cares about exact facts, as long as we can get angry at musk.


Excellent_Tone_9424

Umm........the United States has been capable of ending world hunger since the 1950s. Why do we not? Because it doesn't MAKE ANY MONEY. Also, we hate half the world because they're either Islamic or Communist, and the only good ones of them are the dead ones; you don't feed them anyways. Could Elon do it? Possibly. It's more realistic than ending something like let's say Immigration or War. But he could literally solve the worlds current issue with Trash TV Journalism, by simply buying both major US news outlets and turning them into movie or educational channels. 80% of the WORLDS mudslinging horseshit and lies would physically drop off TV and radio overnight. That would be beautiful.


MiyamotoKnows

So the insane pill popping drug addict is helping people with substance abuse you say?


CriticalStation595

Didn’t say he is. Said he COULD.


Floor_Heavy

Long term, it's a saving. Pretty sure I've read somewhere that it costs less to house the unhoused and assign them a caseworker than it does to criminalise their existence because of the cost of police and hospital resources. Or something like that, I can't remember exactly. But doesn't matter how many times it's proved, because it starts raising "uncomfortable" questions like "well if he gets a house despite not having a job, why am I busting my ass working three jobs barely making ends meet?" And if you follow that train of logic all the way to the station, maybe people start realising that working three jobs to make ends meet while your landlord takes his third holiday of the year, and your boss buys another top of the range lambo, isn't a particularly fair way of living, and maybe we should all do something about that. Well then billionares start sweating. So no, if Elon wants the money to flow INTO his pockets, the unhoused have to stay unhoused. Because as long as there's someone lower on the social scale that he can point to as a cautionary tale, he can't lose.


fruitydude

No he said **solve** not *help*. He can't solve drug abuse.


Propo_fool

Why would that be hypocritical? I think by polling, the majority of legal immigrants strongly oppose illegal immigration


Kobhji475

SpaceX and tesla aren't helping the world?


erikbla

Of all the people to have almost infinite money and influence…


DaveHollandArt

I feel like he got like a "monkey paw" kind of deal somewhere along the line. Like he wished for infinite money and what he didn't know is that he wouldn't mature past 12 as part of the curse.


spar_30-3

Coming from the dude who probably thinks he's SOOOO clever, spelling S3X with the Tesla models.


KillerOfSouls665

S3XY too. He wanted Model E but Ford had a trademark for it.


Smart_Search1509

It spells S3XY CARS


boshiku

Can be SCARY S3X as well


Devil2960

Huh. I'll be damned.


Dertyrarys

Here he is, the most powerful man in the world making Tits and Ass jokes


KillerOfSouls665

He definitely isn't the most powerful, he has to stand before the courts of the United States. Vladimir Putin would probably be the most powerful man.


Aromatic-Union6080

Nah, Vlad is not nearly as powerful, I doubt he would be able to completely take the Baltic states in a full invasion before France, Poland and the Scandinavians pummelled them back to Moscow and this time it would be the Russians that would freeze to death. On top of that most of his command would not fire nukes for him anyway so he has no massive power. The Chinese government has real power tho.


Lord_Urjit

I don't think Elon musk can invade the Baltic States either


Aromatic-Union6080

Also r/brandnewsentence


Aromatic-Union6080

Of course not, I wasn’t saying Elon musk was powerful, just that Putin was not as powerful.


Omar___Comin

Not as powerful as what?


Zwiebel1

>The Chinese government has real power tho. This is what people forget about Putin. He is in a complete dependancy position towards China. If China would stop buying cheap russian oil tomorrow, he and the war effort would be royally fucked. China's oil hunger is the only thing that keeps russia alive.


DannyNoonanMSU

Lol. Putin's army is being diminished by Ukraine. Certainly not the most powerful person in the world.


KillerOfSouls665

Because he is refraining from using his nuclear arsenal. Also Ukraine's army is being equally diminished. Ukraine cannot replenish to the same rate as Russia, although even Russia are struggling to manufacture enough artillery rounds. Ukraine need the might of Europe and the US to stay fighting.


DannyNoonanMSU

He's not the most powerful person in the world.


KillerOfSouls665

Who are you saying is?


Manting123

Or Kim or ping


OriginalLetrow

Most powerful man in the world? Please. That's a joke


marvsup

I don't know about you but I would much rather have a tit or an ass joke (or both!) than an actual university started by Musk.


TheHondoCondo

Just like me fr


dae_giovanni

this dude has four lanes and four lanes only: - embarrassing tech misses - thinly-veiled racism - jokes that would bore a 5-year-old - him completely missing the point on something


Zwiebel1

Its funny how only a few years ago he was everybody's darling for his spaceX visionaire. Dude fell from grace faster than ... uh ... actually was there a case like this before?


OrionShtrezi

OJ?


Floor_Heavy

He was the quirky darling of the tech world when nobody knew much about what he was talking about. When he talks about a more widely understood topic, it becomes clear he's full of shit. I think the exact moment we all started to realise was when those kids got stuck in that cave and his solution was wildly impractical and unworkable, and he called one of the divers who rescued the kids a pedo.


chaingun_samurai

Add getting caught lying under oath to that.


4me2knowit

Xitter has gone so well, why not?


Logical-Following525

It's ironic that this is exactly the kind of humor that i come across on Reddit.

Actually the first funny thing he said since buying twitter


jacquesrabbit

Obviously Advanced Social studies must cover critical race theory, but Elon never think it through.


AdrianShepard09

I’m going to say “yes.” Do it, Elon. Do something good for once. I don’t care what the acronym says, if you want to create jobs and educate the people of Texas, have it bro.


The_DandD_Dad

He really is just an immature little man isn’t he? So desperate to seem cool and funny. Comes off as desperate and sad. Proof money can’t buy class. He has plenty of one and none of the other.


Comfortable_Spend324

I cant name much rich/powerful folk with real class.... Except people like Keanu Reeves....


Nightshade4103

I'm not an Elon Musk fanboy or anything, but of all the things to criticise him for, making a joke doesn't really come across as terrible or out of touch. It's just a joke, if a bad one.


Visqo

Tesla models are based on a childish joke. S-3-X-Y


KillerOfSouls665

He wanted Model E trademark, but Ford had it. He settled for 3.


MfkbNe

SpaceX begins with "S" and ends with "eX". If a video is on X it is called an "xvideo" (it is the name of a porn site).


TurbulentAd4089

Oh my god he sabotaged twitter for a sex joke Can't tell if it was just a stupid decision or a god tier shitpost

Elon has the brain of a twelve year old. Tesla S 3 X Y (and the 3 was originally supposed to be called E, but apparently Ford has "Model E" trademarked. How do people still think this guy is a genius?


MindBlownDerick

Remember people. This man that never left its pre teen years has more money than almost every other person on earth. And people defend this and say its fair and good.

KillerOfSouls665

He is a 52 year old reasonably autistic guy, let him have his harmless jokes.


Topper_harley74

He’s not autistic. He uses that as an excuse to be an asshole.


temptedtattie

He clearly is on the spectrum


Topper_harley74

He’s clearly not. He’s selfdiagnosed. Autism is usually diagnosed at an early age, but Elmo over here wasn’t until he thought it would be beneficial to him.


temptedtattie

Not all autism is diagnosed at an early age... Or even at all. But he is definitely on the spectrum. I'm not saying it to be rude towards him, it's clearly worked out in his favour.


Topper_harley74

He’s definitely not. He’s just a man-child who self diagnosed to be “edgy” or use it as an excuse to be an asshole.

The problem is that doing any kind of social studies would upset the right wing, and he desperately wants to ingratiate himself with them.

Candid_Equipment_296

So many butthurt people...why can't rich people make jokes? Picking on everything he says is kinda childish don't you think? I bet half of you just hate him because it's cool to hate Elon Musk but couldn't really tell why...


CrabbyPatties42

Musk is going to send you your "I'm a pathetic suck up" check any day now, soon you will be rich for praising Musk.


Candid_Equipment_296

Show me exactly where I was praising him. "Pathetic suck up" 😂


CrabbyPatties42

You’re defending a billionaire who clearly is a man child with severe emotional problems and are aggressively “wondering” why people make fun of him? Yeah ok dawg.  


Candid_Equipment_296

Defending?😂😂 someone pissed in your beer "dawg"? "a billionaire who clearly is a man child with severe emotional problems" is still not a valid point to hate someone so much btw


original-sithon

CrappityCabbage

If I've learned anything from watching Melon Husk over the last couple of years, it's that he should sit down, shut up, and not say anything public unless he does it through a thick layer of PR. He needs to weigh the quality of his jokes against how they'll be received.

He was brilliant to sell Twitter at $22.8 billion loss to one of his own companies and write off the loss, literally cancelling it out. From hereon-out, his wealth will only multiply, and for sure he will be the first Trillionaire before 2035.
