If there\u2019s one thing nearly every social media user knows about Elon Musk, it\u2019s that his tweets are often eccentric and bizarre. At the end of April, a tweet suggesting Tesla\u2019s shares were overpriced wiped an incredible $14 billion off his own company\u2019s value. He has gone viral multiple times, including for hopping on the Baby Yoda bandwagon, and for some hilariously weird memes relating to memes themself. His affinity for internet eccentricity was demonstrated again on May 2, when he asked his Twitter followers for ideas on how he could combine his electric car company, Tesla, with Pokemon or Minecraft. He started off his crazy May 2 tweets with four words: \u201cMinecraft has amazing legs\u201d. No one was really sure what was happening, but the tweet was quickly followed up by a pretty weird entrepreneurial proposal. \u201cAnyone think they can get a good multiplayer Minecraft working on Teslas?\u201d he asked. \u201cOr maybe create a game that interacts virtually with reality like Pok\u00e9mon Go while driving safely? Like a complex version of Pac-man or Mario Kart?\u201d Anyone think they can get a good multiplayer Minecraft working on Teslas? Or maybe create a game that interacts virtually with reality like Pok\u00e9mon Go while driving safely? Like a complex version of Pac-man or Mario Kart? \u2014 Elon Musk (@elonmusk) May 3, 2020 Responses to the tweet were varied. Some users simply steered into (pun intended) the madness of Musk\u2019s tweets, replying with hilarious memes of their own. Others jokingly asked the Tesla billionaire what substances he was on. It\u2019s fair to say that a real-life version of Mario Kart using Teslas (worth hundreds of thousands of dollars) would be an immensely popular spectator sport, but finding drivers for the task might prove more challenging. We\u2019re not quite sure how driving can be safely combined with video games, but Elon Musk has never been one to back down from a challenge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elon Musk reveals bizarre idea to put Minecraft &#038; Pokemon Go in Teslas Elon Musk\/Tesla\/MinecraftTech billionaire and entrepreneur Elon Musk has left gamers across the world baffled, after posting tweets asking how he could combine Minecraft and Pokemon with his car brand, Tesla.
