    OK I get it you got it somewhere else. Sure Elon you’re hilarious. But picking the face on the right as the one that’s “odd” and to make the joke about? And then really piling on, “(who looks like napaloean dynamite in clown makeup)”?

    ok, i'll tell it.

    the actor who plays napoleon dynamite is actually probably better looking than most people, which is how he became the actor who played napoleon dynamite in the first place, ironically. the "silly hair and glasses" thing really works! he also has sort of feminine features from that angle. the lips, obviously, but also there's not a pronounced brow or squared jaw or any other very stereotypically masculine facial feature. aside from those things, markers of facial beauty across men and women don't differ tremendously, so consensually highly attractive members of each group are bound to have some similarities.

    thank you for coming to my ted talk.

    Saw some guy post: "There is no outer space. NASA is a sham. The earth is flat under a dome (firmament)". Allegedly.

    :Laugh::Laugh::Laugh:

    "What if that were true. And what if Elon knew all along while having people invest in SpaceX and faking Mars missions? Would that make him a bad guy?"

    :Kobe Shrug:

    Things one reads about in a long offseason without basketball...

    Taylor Swift is a very attractive women but the dude who played napolean dynamite kids went to my kid's school as well and he's not attractive. I'm a cis dude so maybe not the best guy to be able to judge this but just no (he's tall though).

    yeah, i'm not going to get into an argument about jon heder's attractiveness, but the general point is that it's not surprising for people of different genders to have similar facial features and to still generate very different impressions.

    if you shaved taylor swift's head and put her in a clown wig with serial killer glasses, she'd be highly unattractive. of course, this is true for just about everyone ever.

    The stuff he did at SpaceX was serious business miracle but the reason he went into the biz was very quirky - he wanted to buy ride on Russian rocket for the plantery society to put a plant on Mars. Him and a future NASA admin were shocked at the price and they came up with the idea for re-usable rockets. This was a truly brilliant business decision and his ability to play CFO as well as CEO really helped the company. One of the best cases of disruption to an ossified industry that Silicon valley could come up with.

    Now I think he's just go too much money and is surrounded by a bunch of toadies feeding the ego. It's a real shame because his biggest successes has been when he's been paired with other brilliant folks who had noble goals instead of guys who are just clout seeking IMO. A modern day Howard Hughes hopefully without the syphillis.

    First of all everyone knows Elon likes to mess with the pictures and brush them up to prove his Anti liberal conspiracy bs . It’s a dumb comparison to be honest.

    Somebody who thinks TS is ugly and looks like Napoleon dynamite is stupid and r******* and makes cars that looks like short busses.

    I think Travis Kelce gets way hotter women than that creep Elon

    sorry I had to go there ! I tried real hard not to. Lol

    As always with Austin a great interview. All about the winning and a ring. Everything takes care of itself and everyone looks good and you’re thought of as a winner …. when you’re …. winning.

    LOL on the drawing of fouls:

    “I closed out our conversation by jokingly asking Reaves about the free throw numbers and his response to some of the claims of foul-baiting.

    “Sh*t, stop fouling me. It's that simple.”

    Goddamn... If that dude takes another, however small, step forward and Bron and AD are healthy come playoffs, we are winning it all.

    I mean... 18/4/5 on 50/40/90 isn't out of the realm of possibilities for him, which is AMAZING.
