“Well, one lesson I’ve learned is that just because I say something to a group and they laugh doesn’t mean it’s going to be all that hilarious as a post on X,” he said in a follow-up post early Monday. “Turns out that jokes are WAY less funny if people don’t know the context and the delivery is plain text."

I knew people like this in real life, who'd say something horrible and follow it up with "It's just a joke," but only if they 'lose' and are called out on it.

They're slimey jerks, and it's utterly miserable to even be around them. And I don't understand why so many would worship/follow Elon and dwell on Twitter for it.

Just like my sister and "Not to be mean or anything but..."

You know that next words out of her mouth are going to be mean.
