After losing a flame war with Hard Drive over his habitual meme-theft, hosting one of the worst Saturday Night Live episodes of the century and bombing so hard at a Dave Chappelle show that his employees reportedly thought he might kill himself, Musk has had serious difficulty in convincing anyone besides his most brain-dead admirers that he is le epic internet comedy king. The fact that Musk couldn't even recall a single one of these “forbidden words” that Grok might spew out after several rounds of repeated instructions in front of growingly uncomfortable group of party-goers makes us wonder whether Rogan is on the Tesla or Twitter payroll as Musk's professional (and only) friend. No matter how many tech companies he takes over, or how much he juices the Twitter algorithm to make his tweets perform better than his political enemies, or how many memes he steals and crops out the watermark before reposting, or how many times he gets booed offstage at a stadium stand-up show, or how many SNL cast members think he's the worst host in history, or how many joke-writing robots he brings to parties, Musk will never be a comedian, but he'll always be a punchline.
