    Is he starting his own rocket league? Did one of his brood start playing it and leon thought, “I could do that!”?

    To be fair, leon has the most advanced thruster/sensor tech on the planet via SpaceX. Making an empty metal box do a flip is trivial.

    The Tesla flying car is clearly a Spectacle for Fools, but the gas being used is basically compressed air and doesn’t contribute to our greenhouse gas problem.

    There’s plenty of other aspects to this to make fun of that are factually accurate.

    is that bottle thing a real thing? I noticed that on some of my recent water bottles and I’ve got to say, I’m absolutely livid about it.

    Billionaires have no fucks to give about anything except mean tweets. They weirdly seem to care a hell of a lot about those.

    I don’t get the point of this comic tbh. I’m no Tesla apologist, but it’s compressed air. Besides we all know this is in no way really going to be widely available.

    I pity my EMS brothers who will roll up on a car crash, that now has a massive pipe bomb to spray bits of flaming lithium in a half mile radius.

    Well done Tesla. The Mother of All Car Bombs will be ready to roll off the lot next year you say?

    Why is this car being called a Roadster? It doesn’t even appear to have a removable top. That would make it a coupé.

    I am beyond sick of auto manufacturers removing the convertible option. Stop taking all the fun out of cars!

      And you should be! Stock got a solid bump from this idiot demo and then dropped below opening price. :)

      Most Tesla investors are the kind to be impressed by such a stunt.

      Musk made his fortune showing shiny things and making false promises to investors.
