We all know Musk is gonna talk big talk and then do everything in his power to try and come up with excuses to back out last minute.

Like he always does.

Say what you want about Zuck but IIRC the dude has been actively learning martial arts for awhile, no? Isn't that one of his hobbies he has talked about before?

[–] Wilshire@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

He spends his time in VR training like Neo.

Never pick a fight with an android. I thought everybody knew that.

[–] halvdan@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah, that's not gonna happen.

Edit: feel free to quote me if I'm wrong. Is there an aged like milk sub somewhere?

[–] Spudger@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago

In a cage? Why not a small sub near the Titanic?

Can we sew them both up in a leather sack with a badger instead?

[–] TheElectroness@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

Hey now, badgers are lovely creatures

Rich people desperate for attention.

[–] batcheck@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

I’m with you on this one. Seems like the richer you get the more validation you need. I don’t understand why we are giving them this attention either. I came here looking for people making jokes about how silly this is and that is not what I got

[–] Liontigerwings@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

say what you will about zuck, but he is not an attention whore. Especially when you consider he made a social media site designed to get people to overshare.

Reality really did take a strange turn back in 2020 didn't it? This decade just gets weirder and weirder.

[–] Wilshire@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

The world ended in 2012, and the rest is a simulation.

The most powerful people in the world are fucking idiots.

[–] tburkhol@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

It's almost like luck and nepotism are more important for success than ability.

In order to do a walrus attack, you have to actually get your opponent on the ground. What's the name of that female KFC fighter who was a beast at grappling but got into a ring with a boxer? She was destroyed because she couldn't get close.

[–] ArugulaZ@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

What's the name of that female KFC fighter?

Connie Sanders, I think.
