It does but it doesn’t make sense in context. At that point, he’s tried to back out of the deal for months… Maybe it would be funny if he’d closed the deal naturally.
I am very interested in the amount of people that are still working there solely because of an H1B or something equity related. >

I’m interested on how much that pizza oven is >

10K for a restaurant pizza oven with 2 doors with 18% fee on top of your taxes.
I think you can buy one new for less, no? >

10k?  Not sure what kind of oven you are buying but they are not 10k for a refurbished one.  My family’s small pizza shop bought a new 2 door oven for 25k with tax.  The original oven was 18k refurbished and that thing broke down a ton over the years. >

What can I get for 2k ? >

the fuck out, apparently. >

I like your style internet stranger. >

Q: how do you make a small fortune when buying a popular online communication service?
A: you start with a large fortune. >

That’s akin to the (very) old joke I first heard in the 80s. 
How do you make a million dollars? Start with a billion and buy an airline. >

is that specifically a trump joke or just in general, i know he had an airline that was a huge failure >

I've seen this joke attributed to Richard Branson as a self-deprecating quip but I strongly suspect that's apocryphal.
(He did get into the airline business in the 80s though.) >

This. It was his quote, regarding his airline Virgin Atlantic. >

Which airline is one of the better flying experiences I've had.  I actually paid attention to the safety message. >

The garage sale with continue until morale improves >

He's gonna start auctioning employees soon >

He probably wouldn't even be ideologically opposed to that, given his family's emerald mines and the fact that most of the remaining employees are on a work visa. >

The only people still working there need the job or they get deported.  Elon's slave owning history is coming back faster than his hairline did. >

I have to imagine there's a fair amount of incels that would throw themselves on pikes for him. >

Not anymore, he had a few but they got fired too. Lol >

This whole debacle reminds me of "The Simpsons" episode where Bart sold his immortal soul for an Alf Pog. >

My favorite part of that episode is when Bart goes to the Kwik-E-Mart and the bullies are fogging up the frozen treats bin using their breath and then writing things in the condensation, and Bart tries and can't fog up the window and the bully says "way to breathe, 'no breath'." >

The automatic door not opening was my favorite part! >

Yeah, that's immediately before it. >

Excellent screen name! >

When restaurants do this they are days away from closing >

Yup. I witnessed this with a very large multinational company. This is basically endgame. Twitter maybe has weeks before the banks/courts start shuttering. >

Musk has interest payments due at the end of the month so it would make sense he would have a garage sale given how much cash he’s lost this year. >

Step 1) buy a company whose assets are mostly counted under digital properties including a website and a brand name for way above price using loans which you leverage against the company
Step 2) realize you can't afford the interest on the loans and begin to panic 
Step 3) fire staff, downsize the company, so it can't maintain the digital property properly 
Step 4) hold a garage sale hoping to earn a few thousand of whatever physical assets the company has
Step 5) regret buying a kitchen sink to make a joke when you arrived because that was money you clearly didn't have
Honestly this is quality entertainment, if it wasn't for the people who lost jobs and the artists etc who have built businesses on the back of using Twitter as an outlet I would heartily recommend Musk keeps burning his image to the ground with this circus clusterfuck. >


Step 5) regret buying a kitchen sink to make a joke when you arrived because that was money you clearly didn't have

Yeah what's up with that? I never quite got it. >

Have you heard of the saying "Let that sink in"? 
"Elon musk just bought Twitter for 44bn, let that sink in."
..then he was literally let in(the building) while carrying a sink, thus them "letting that sink in".
Idk if that explanation helped
