I just like how they try so hard to purge a bad photo and that just makes it immortal.

Ikr. It's not even that bad. Other than the hair I'd totally rock that, especially if i'm rich like him, where he can literally set trends with his style if he wanted.

was this a costume for an event? or his daily fashion? people are allowed to present as goth, this isn't the 1000th most embarrassing thing he's done.

maybe try to find a picture of him interacting with one of his offspring or wives? or a picture of him actually working as an engineer? or doing something good for those less fortunate? or participating with the greater community? or expressing empathy for a tragedy?

They had to have meant The Dude, right? Right?

[–] hemmes@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I’m the Dude. So that’s what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you’re not into the whole brevity thing.

Honestly, it’s not that bad. The only reason that so many people have latched on to it is because of how hard Elon has tried to make it go away. It’s a textbook example of the Streisand Effect.
