[Blablurn]

reminds me of those cringeful minecraft videos

 

[TheOMan]

Now that was cringeworthy. Ouch.

 

[Velcoro]

Oh the cringe..that was hard to watch lol

 

[Gordon Shumway]

LOL well, he's certainly confident..

 

[Johnny Cage]

At least the board of directors. C'mon Elon is that really too much to ask for?

 

[FunkyPajamas]

Oh man, I heard his voice breaking and I just closed the video. My heart started racing and I felt bad for the guy even without hearing the response. Too much to handle. I guess by the posts in here it didn't work out.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

Musk should have fired off a "If you're so smart, why aren't you rich?"

That was cringe worthy, and definitely gave me the same vibe as those Minecraft convention videos.

 

[Ray Wonder]

I felt nothing

 

[Salmonax]

Gotta love that he's touting his genius while making an incredibly stupid request in the least strategic manner possible.

Musk was actually quite polite and patient with him, even offering a direct response rather than stringing him along with a non-answer.

 

[Damerman]

i would have asked for an entry level job.

 

[jett]

I don't really find mentally disabled people funny.

 

[Hellwarden]

I feel too bad for the guy to laugh at him.

 

[eddie4]

 

[Orbis Tabula]

This video is gonna sure look awkward in 20 years when that guy is a super villain. Nice going, Musk. You just created your arch nemesis. This was an origin story.

Can you link me up? Havent seen these

 

[Bad_Boy]

yikes.

 

[daviyoung]

A level 2 capitalist?

 

[Rushersauce]

There's a thread for this kind of videos.

 

[victreeb3l]

I couldnt make it passed the "I-I'm sorry I" in the beginning. Ugh.

 

[air jordans for dogs]

I am also a level 2

 

[Nafai1123]

 

[backflip10019]

Isn't it enough to be enlightened by your own intelligence?

 

[FZZ]

i would have asked for an entry level job.

yes

But the dude might have been next level trolling.

 

[Akuun]

That's too sad to be funny. Dude's just totally deluded.

 

[gnexus]

He'll probably get a nice job at Apple now

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

In fifteen years

 

[3N16MA]

He only asked to be placed on the board of directors. Musk could have granted him his request.

 

[FtsH]

He said to many "I apologize". Not confident enough.

 

[LosDaddie]

I actually LOLed in my office.

The guy is an idiot. He actually thought his supposed intelligence alone would land him an executive position? 😂😂

 

[Relix]

Oh God I cringed so hard

 

[Pryce]

"I am a super genius like yourself".

stopped right there.

 

[Buddha Beam]

That guy probably posts on GAF.

 

[revolverjgw]

I want to believe this guy really is that deluded but I'm worried that he's actually some deadpan troll.

 

[Tesseract]

his time will come, keep playing kerbal bro

 

[Veritigo_X]

"I would like to come on board as Vice Chairman of Tesla."
*audience bursts into laughter*

Yeah... couldn't watch it after that. I feel bad for the guy, but I don't know what he expected.

He expected to be named the Vice Chairman of Tesla, that was very clear.

That being said, woof.

 

[Jack Scofield]

I like how being on the Board of Directors was his final compromise, as if he's lowering his standards by accepting that kind of position.

 

[Az]

Future villain in the making.

 

[Pryce]

Guy has to be trolling right?

I mean, it's not like he asked for an interview about an entry level position. He asked to be VICE CHAIRMEN.

Jesus.

Now you've done it.

 

[Orkidea]

So cringey

 

[TapeDispenser1000]

No point starting from the bottom when you can just ask your way to the top.

 

[TheSpoiler]

There is another video with this guy I think. doing the same thing on his channel. And he's not mentally ill, just full of himself.

 

[Tesseract]

cringe today, cry tomorrow

hallowed are the ori

 

[Count Dookkake]

Level 2 cringe.

 

[PSqueak]

Even the sign language interpreter is like "what did he just say?!", the guy behind him losing it is a highlite.

 

[MiniBossBattle]

Oh god. I wish the guy could have rerolled and put all the points into charisma.
