D&D General Elon Musk Was a DM

[Charlaquin]

Yeah, he’s a tech bro, so of course he has also played and/or run D&D at some point. Unfortunately, because any association at all with this absolute clown is deeply embarrassing.

 

[Charlaquin]

Nah, he hasn't misidentified Hasbro as the reason one of his kids disowned him.

It says a lot that he thinks that excuse actually saves face. But make no mistake, it’s an excuse.

Such as…?

Cofounded Paypal, pushed innovation in electric cars, gacve away access to patents that allow for enviromentally concious technologies (including battery tech, hyperloop tech, and others), innovation in tunneling technologies that will make it more cost efficient to use tunnels to reduce traffic, married Talulah Riley.

A guy can be an innovator and generous at the same time he is a foolish clown.

Message from the future: Elon Musk will buy Hasbro (also Disney and WarnerDiscovery).

We do live in the worst and dumbest timeline…so yeah that tracks.

Looking forward to playing D&D X

Sure, but most of that isn’t actually anything he did.

He’s a college dropout with delusions. He thinks he’s Tony Stark when he’s really that other guy in Iron Man 2.

The tunnels…aren’t a good idea, btw.

Just build a subway system. They work very well.

Giving away tech IP I will research and then if appropriate grant him. Marrying Talulah Riley…I guess she is just one of those folks with no taste.

Cofounded Paypal,

I’d say that’s of dubious respectability.

pushed innovation in electric cars, gacve away access to patents that allow for enviromentally concious technologies (including battery tech, hyperloop tech, and others), innovation in tunneling technologies that will make it more cost efficient to use tunnels to reduce traffic,

For the most part, these aren’t things he’s done, they’re things people who work for the companies he owns have done. Also the stupid tunnels are just worse than subways in literally every way.

married Talulah Riley.

Uhh… I mean, good on anybody for finding someone who loves them, but I don’t think this is an act worthy of any particular respect, any more than any other two (or more) people getting together is…

A guy can be an innovator and generous at the same time he is a foolish clown.

Yeah, but he’s neither generous nor actually innovative. He’s just a rich prig who used to be pretty good at marketing himself.

 

[Whizbang Dustyboots]

Hold on, Musk has an "incredibly patient" part of his personality? Is this an Onion article?

Elon Musk will ruin your campaign like he ruined Twitter.

You just know he’s one of those DMs who does it cause he likes having a captive audience who has to pay attention to him for a few hours.

You can stick to your guns, but the world is rarely black and white. It is more often shades of grey... but in this case, I see the guy as a zebra: Both really black hat and really white hat at the same time. He alternates between elements that have really done good things for society to moments of utter stupidity.

If you're going to rename something you bought and want to develop, don't tell people to call it their Ex (X). That usually doesn't get associated with good feelings...
