It's almost like luck and nepotism are more important for success than ability.
Celebrity deathmatch anyone?
The game was great too.
Never pick a fight with an android. I thought everybody knew that.
Yeah, that's not gonna happen.
Edit: feel free to quote me if I'm wrong. Is there an aged like milk sub somewhere?
In a cage? Why not a small sub near the Titanic?
Rich people desperate for attention.
I’m with you on this one. Seems like the richer you get the more validation you need. I don’t understand why we are giving them this attention either. I came here looking for people making jokes about how silly this is and that is not what I got

say what you will about zuck, but he is not an attention whore. Especially when you consider he made a social media site designed to get people to overshare.
Can we sew them both up in a leather sack with a badger instead?
Hey now, badgers are lovely creatures
We all know Musk is gonna talk big talk and then do everything in his power to try and come up with excuses to back out last minute.
Like he always does.
Say what you want about Zuck but IIRC the dude has been actively learning martial arts for awhile, no? Isn't that one of his hobbies he has talked about before?
He probably spends his time in VR training like Neo.
Reality really did take a strange turn back in 2020 didn't it? This decade just gets weirder and weirder.
The world ended in 2012, and the rest is a simulation.
I so want to see this happen but I feel like there will be so many rules and padding that it’ll end up being a borefest.
Cage match, anything goes! It’ll bring in huge audiences.
Imagine the army of personal trainers on each side
I think we can all agree to lose the keys to that cage, right?
Then throw it in the ocean, right? I'm just asking questions.
Wait. This is for real?
It's real in the sense that Elon was like "fight me," and Mark replied "when and where"
That's about it.

I place the blame for this squarely at the feet of Al Gore.
The internet was a mistake.
Can't we just put all the billionaires in a cage, like rats in a bucket ala that scene in Skyfall, and just oops accidentally forget to release them? Or I dunno, just spitballing ideas here, some kind of sealed carbon fiber tube at the bottom of the Atlantic?
Hopefully it's a fight to the death. Loser's assets get donated to a good cause. Winner faces whatever other egomaniac wants to use their wealth to shit on the rest of humanity.
The battle ends when the last man standing has a net worth of less than $10 million.
Not sure who to bet on. They are both stupid, but they also both fight dirty.
Make it to the death!
Has there ever been a simultaneous knock out in boxing before? I'm cheering for that
New Battlebots season's gonna be lit
In order to do a walrus attack, you have to actually get your opponent on the ground. What's the name of that female KFC fighter who was a beast at grappling but got into a ring with a boxer? She was destroyed because she couldn't get close.
What's the name of that female KFC fighter?
Connie Sanders, I think.
I demand a fight to the death! TO THE DEATH!
(for both participants)
Celebrity Death Match, please
I... what? I hope there's a way they can both lose.
How about if the loser agrees to donate 100% of their wealth to charity, subside on the wages of their lowest paid employee, and disappear from public life?
Cue musk backing out “it’s just a joke 🥺🥺🥺🥺” in 3…
...this truly is the weirdest timeline.
