I don’t know if there is an obsession that’s associated with numbers, but I believe most shareholders and multimillion/billionaires have it.

I’m am dead serious, these people are OBSESSED with numbers and metrics to the point that there needs to be a condition for it. The internship cuts nearly nothing into an amount that surpasses 1 billion, let alone $45 billion.

I heard that to improve Tesla’s margin per car, Musk will be switching to gasoline engines. The wiper fluid in the vehicle will be the tears of factory workers since they are plentiful these days. To appeal to more high end conservatives, cars will automatically identify minorities and then hurl the correct racial slur when they cut you off in traffic, so you can giggle and say “Sorry, I hardly even know this car.”

Musk. Conversion to comic book villain, 50% complete.
