One of the things I hate most about Musk is how he thinks he's funny.
That’s the thing about humor. It’s subjective.
Except Musk's jokes are objectively shit.
I really dislike Musk and cannot help but cringe at most of what he says whether attempting to be funny or not.
That being said, I do think humor is subjective. Say hypothetically I was with my eleven year old nephew and the car radio was talking about inflation. If from the backseat I heard him say inflation blah blah 420 blah 69, I would absolutely find it hilarious.
Musk doing the same thing on a social media site which has been ruined under his stewardship is just truly pathetic.
That’s fair. His humor is stunted and situationally inappropriate as well as far less clever than he thinks. He’s a middle aged deadbeat father making dirty jokes that are fine for a 14 year old to a crowd of everyone while lecturing about how other people aren’t funny. I would expect more clever sex jokes from an 18 year old in the context. And there is no added component of “lol I’m immature here”.
