Jesus, Zack, this should come with a warning.

“May cause vaginal dryness”

But given we only have one vagina here (Funky) you should be okay.

    Elon is the world heavyweight champion liar. When he says he will do something, you can bet with 100% assurance that it will not pan out. Also, it sounds like he may eat some serious shit over the Twitter stunt.

      Homegrove seems likely to me. I’ve read Barbarians at The Gate pretty closely, and I cannot recall a single instance where the buyer decided they just didn’t want to do it anymore cuz reasons. This is so transparently sus.

      Is he legally bound to buy Twitter though? What can anyone do about it if he decides to pull the plug?

        Old-Dutch If he actually made a legitimate offer than he would have to have demonstrated that the funds were available for the purchase and entered into a sales agreement. My understanding is that you make x% of the purchase price available upfront to prevent this exact type of situation from happening.

        So either a. He is really going to try to recoup his potential loss via a legal battle over the bot stuff, or b. he never actually made a legitimate offer in the first place and this was all a complete stunt.

          zackster There’s also c. he might still complete the purchase and is using all this as an attempt to negotiate a lower price.

          The guy quoted in Homegrove’s post even suggests as much:

          There is absolutely no chance he buys Twitter. None. You’ll see @Smallman1 get corrective T surgery and attend a Hector Oaks gig before you see Elon Musk take over Twitter.

            There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that he will run Twitter into the ground. Their main office is a block from mine. End up chatting with employees from time to time. The brain drain with that dude in charge will be staggering. A lot of them already have issues with Twitter’s influence and questionable ethics. Having its sole purpose being owning the libs? Good luck with that.

              jonattonyeah there must be enough Musk fans out there that would love to work at Twitter if Musk did actually buy it

                Smallman1 I’m a one man T unit!

                A T unit is actually the ‘shortest grammatically allowable sentences into which (writing can be split) or minimally terminable unit.’

                  zackster what’s your point in posting a 3 year-old video of a car fire which happened in Moscow after it crashed in to a truck and in which all passengers got out unharmed, and when other cars in the US catch fire more frequently than Teslas?
