The Daily Show Needs Answers from Elon Musk About Deleted Tweets
Here's an important life lesson, so grab a pencil and write this down. People who feel the need to tell you just how much of a sense of humor they have are usually the unfunniest f**ks to walk the planet. The best test to know if you're dealing with someone like that? See how they react when the jokes are leveled at them. Spoiler? They usually don't take it well and tend to through s**t-fits. That brings us to Elon Musk, Twitter owner and defender of "free speech" (well…) & humor (unless it's a parody account that hits too close to home). But this time around, we're keeping things simple. Why does Musk have a personal gripe against Comedy Central's The Daily Show to the point where he's pulling down their tweets?
