I honestly don't get Elon's obsession with X. First it was his thing with x.com and PayPal, then it was SpaceX, then he called his son X, then Twitter....

No wonder his wife became his X wife.

I think he believes that 'X' is 'the unknown' and that makes it cool and mysterious.

still not out of puberty, it seems.

Have you seen his Tweets? He's definitely got a 10-year-old mentality. He changed his screen name to 'Harry Bolz' for a while. That's the level of 'humor' he's at.

I just read them. He thinks those "jokes" are funny or something. His comments just suck overall, glad that Twitter is dying.
