Walked right into this one, didn't he?

In fairness the setup was absolutely beautiful. She's some woman for the zingers.

Well, the setup worked for whichever side chimed in. Elon never stood a chance. The fact that she was describing multiple people is truely terrifying. But I guess that's her point.

It's honestly really gross that he immediately jumps to thinking she's hitting on him. Like, him freaking out and going into a fit of rage might have been a less terrible response.

I assume he doesn't really think that, but thinks he's being a cute troll. Like picking 420.69 for everything.

Trying to deflect assumed criticism about him by being "funny".

Musk sent the funniest response he could possibly think of.

Remember middle school?

NO I WON’T MAKE OUT WITH YOU!

Or was that elementary?

I bet that toasted his buns. His ego is at critical mass.

Any armchair psychologists care to weigh in on Elmo?

Money rots brains

Plus, hell hath no wrath like a nerd who stumbles into power.

My reductive opinion is that nerds come in two main flavors. Ones that are upset that the world is unfair, and are empathically motivated to change it for the better.

And then there's ones like Benzos or Elon, the nerds who see the world as a totem poll. Totem poles where they have been placed below their true position in life. They don't want to get rid of the totem pole, they want to make it bigger, and they want to be at the top, so they may punish those who got in their way.

Brother, you don't need to be a psychologist to call narcissism

I'd ask for the number but I'm afraid I already have it.
