He tries WAY too hard to be cool. Ends up making him look like a complete tool.

I've been trying to buy one for the last 10 minutes or so. I tried multiple times already on my iPhone and MacBook. Apple Pay is not going through and failing. Or maybe it's giving me an error but order went through. I might end up with like 5 pairs of these shorts if all those orders went through.

The shorts are 70 bucks. The software update 6 months later is $2,000.

At least with the new update, zero to chafing is quicker by four tenths of a second.

Maybe about lame childish idiocy like this, but his workers might beg to differ

He's not trying to be cool. This is Elon's well deserved victory lap. And as Tesla shareholder, I want pair of this short as a souvenir to remember Elon and Tesla's historic achievement.

Really hope you're being sarcastic and not that stupid. This is childish, at best.

You get iot connection to drop your shorts remotely.

Jokes are only funny if you understand the context. You're an outsider. You don't understand what Elon, Tesla, and the shareholders went through over the years. This is celebration of all that hard work and winning.

Shorts are 69.420 and not 70 bucks.

It makes sense once you realize that Musk is a stupid person's idea of what a smart person looks like.

Got mine. I couldn't get Apple Pay to work so I had to manually checkout with credit card.

 

[snoopy7548]

As a side note, the chick they chose to model the shorts is a 10/10. Just take a look at those smooth elbows!

 

[ponyo]

So now 69.420 is confirmed, I need to figure out the best way to play Tesla Q2 earnings and upcoming S&P 500 inclusion. Baby needs new Tesla Roadster.

meh, they look like regular shorts, not short shorts. Short shorts are supposed to be skin tight.

These are short shorts:

That's not Tesla colors and doesn't really send the right message. This is the message Elon wants to send.

 

[zinfamous]

So ponyo...you probably never joined the Moonie movement, so this is why you are all up on Elon Musk all day long, every day? FOMO?

Just trying to understand this thing.

they're basically ~1980s and earlier basketball shorts. So very short by today's standards (publicly).

...that fine young woman up there wouldn't normally wear those in public in this country as part of an every day outfit. ....OK, unless she's an 18-22 year old Korean student at [local university]. I mean...just going by experience.
