On: Tesla Roadster

I don’t think much of Musk since the Nazi salutes, but why is this really cool?

It’s taking work done for rockets which are cool IMO (the control systems and software will all be from those) and sticking it on a car to make a circus act out of it.

I do have a problem with the fake spectacle of it and don’t think it’s cool in any way.

I think we've lost the plot a little bit if we don't understand why a car that can stick to the road upside down and kick flip over traffic is cool.

It’s not a real car, you’ll never buy it, and it’ll never be road legal so it won’t be near traffic.

Yeah and if you do a kickflip over traffic your drinks will fall out of your cupholder. If that's your standard for cool I don't know what to tell you.
