First he came for escrow services, and I said nothing, because I didn’t know anything about escrow services.

Then he came for cars, and I’m not a huge car kinda guy so meh.

Then he came for rockets, and a rocket scientist I am not.

Then he did something, I think, about tunnels. Who knows about tunnels? Anyone?

And then he came for software/social media, and I, and a whole shedload of people happen to know a fair bit about software and social media, and then we knew he was an idiot, and it was too late.

In b4 politics…

Oh, I know the tunnels one! He used tunnels to kill public transit projects. Unfortunately I am a public transit fan.

Not just tunnels. The hyperloop bs was always designed as an attack on the California High-Speed Rail project.

The tunnel he built in Las Vegas is a hilarious bottleneck of a clusterfuck. You can walk faster than how much time the tesla tunnel takes you.

It's OK, most people don't know much about escrow services. They're usually too scared to even ask. Just make sure you pay her with cash and don't trust anyone who let's you go without a condom.

Honestly it's a tough business. Should have thought about that before buying it for what 44 billion.
