Man, Elon Musk managed to sell these suckers on his image ot the degree where hey treat him like a borderline saint. He is a fucking amazing businessman.
Cult of personality well in effect. Even if Elon Musk is actually a magical saint from the heavens as opposed to a forward thinking business man, please do not buy him a fucking couch. He has shit tons of money and isn't running out anytime soon. If he deals with a somewhat uncomfortable couch instead of buying a personalized gold plated Assblaster 9000 it's probably because there's no need for it. Jesus.
Yeah, people should have no right to spend their money how they want, how fucking dare they do this.
Buy him the couch, then bring that couch to Mars for one of the habitats.
You can have your right to buy a man with magnitudes more money than you a couch he doesn't need and I'll have my right to dislike you for it. There are people who can't eat, and somehow people have decided their next charitable act will be buying a rich man a couch.
I hope people are donating because it's funny. Meme charities are a thing you know
Oversimplifying arguments to make them seem ridiculous is a really great way to feel like you have a point... especially when you really really don't
Worth noting for people who didn't bother to read the GoFundMe, if Elon doesn't accept the couch (Which I can imagine he wouldn't because I'm sure money to buy a couch is the least of his problems) they are going to donate it all to charity anyway.
Fuck him, if he can send a car into space he can buy a couch
yeah but donating to a 'meme charity' is equally stupid
why? its a good gimmuck that will get money raised and its almost garunteed to go to chairty. Meme charity saves lives
If Musk does manage to get a colony going on mars, he'll have done the most to save the whole of humanity that anyone's ever done on the grander scale of things.
Fuck, Musk could probably afford to buy everyone on the internet a couch.
It's a silly thing to waste your money on but then I kinda' make a principle of not getting angry at people for wasting their own money because if I didn't I'd probably be mad way too often.
