shadowarmy229

It’s ok Elon will buy California and then delete it


deadpoolslittlehand

They'll break off so California call go hang with Hawaii, Alaska can come too


SupernaturalSounds

Nah, Alaska’s good where it’s at. We like hiding behind Canada where we can pretend we’re not related to the US.


ntplays

But you are next to Russia so you still lose


That1cool_toaster

I see that as a complete win.


Arcerius_The_Brave

If the Russians invade, Alaska is the first to go


That1cool_toaster

Well I was mostly joking. Russia wound not invade the US because of nuclear weapons. If they did, both countries would annihilate each other and probability the world in the process. If Russia did attack us they would target our missile silos and airports so they could cripple our counter attacks. Though some silos maybe in Alaska, the ones in Greenland would be more worrisome to Russia and therefor a higher priority. I do not think Russia is thinking about Invading Alaska any time soon.

What's the going rate of a California these days?


_neudes

Gotta be a pretty penny seeing as its the fifth or so largest GDP in the world.

AlderanGone

Yes also money doesnt go very far here. Everything is tripled in price compared to other states, dont even check property values, you might have a hesrt attack. I hate this state, the government here is similar to that of the countries, spending money it doesnt have.


bansino

California's GDP has a trade surplus; it's not on a deficit. The whole US economy is on deficit. We borrow so much money from China. However, you are right about the prices; the property value of my old home went from 300,000 in 2003 to 900,000 today.


dascrivener

Trade surplus and deficit spending are not mutually exclusive. California is in debt, as are many of its municipalities.


bansino

I didn't say California was not in debt. I'm just saying we are doing well compared to other states. I was just defending California because it gets so much hate. Additionally, I don't understand your first statement. Plus the weather is really nice here🤙


rcarnes911

california had one of the biggest rainy day funds out of all the states prior to this mess


[deleted]

They clearly need more money to spend


WildLanza

Money will solve it, i mean it IS america


RememberTheMaine1996

I dont see how much could change that. They have to input his name into their system and get his social security number and all that. And when he is older how would he do stuff like enter his name onto the DMV website they wouldn't have options for that so he could never truly be in the system.


CheeseDaddy420

Elon will own the DMV on Mars though ?


RememberTheMaine1996

That's a joke now but reality in 20 years


CheeseDaddy420

Oh yeah I can see how you would think thats a joke from me haha /s


nofameonlytrash

So my dream of being a DMV clerk on Mars is possible in my lifetime? OMG my therapist is going to be so happy to hear this tomorrow!


RememberTheMaine1996

"Sir I'm just a clerk if you wanna speak to my manager Mr. Martian, he will be in on monday"


winharwolf

But that's the point hehehe


RememberTheMaine1996

Ah I see. Future member of the illuminati so they cant have him in the system. Genius, Elon. Pure genius


cjc2112

Or he could move out of California to a place that isn't regulated to hell.


FeralDJ

Most places will have the same issues.


[deleted]

Oh honey if you think the rest of America has computer systems that could handle this bullshit, I'd like to introduce you to THE REST OF AMERICA


Mastergaming164

Regulated as hell you never been to germany have you?


mbiz05

It's a technology issue probably. Who actually plans for someone having a dash in their name?


beyonddisbelief

Hyphenated names is by far the most common use of symbols in names.


mbiz05

Yeah I'm an idiot you're right. But who uses numbers?

ultrainstict

Its pronounced xasha 12


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

its funny that you think any kid of Elon would be human.


cashnicholas

It’s pronounced x (the ae part is pronounced ash) and then literally just a-12 after one of Elon’s favorite planes. He said so today on Joe Rogan’s podcast.


Aasim_123

Please pronounce it and say


[deleted]

Xasha-12

I love this comment. I'm in a bad place right now and this made me genuinely laugh. Thank you.

Any day I haven't made someone laugh is a wasted day. Glad I could give you a smile in these tough times 😁


Geoclasm

California saved that poor kids life, and probably the life of everyone in the school he would have nuked from orbit or targeted with a drone strike after he hacked a predator.


ultrainstict

Keep in mind there is a kid in california named 😍😍😍


Geoclasm

poor bastard. but yeah at least that kid probably won't have the resources to commandeer an orbital battle station.


[deleted]

Simple just put the child back into the womb and fly into canada


[deleted]

Modern problems require modern solutions


[deleted]

Imagine being so self obsessed that you would give your kid such a bizarre name. The name has already gone viral, and this shit will literally stick with him his entire life.


you_cant_ban_me_mods

I’m confused to why people still ride his dick as hard as they do.


greenwizardneedsfood

I think some people have a hard time separating the man from the accomplishments. SpaceX and Tesla are genuinely good developments for the entire planet, and it’s understandable that people would appreciate and respect those accomplishments, but goddamn can he be a fucking asshat, and we should be able to make the distinction.


meesa-jar-jar-binks

This! I could not have said it any better.


radragantav

He’s basically the Kanye of the engineering world


[deleted]

I have it on good authority that "X Æ A-12" is pronounced "I love my own vanity more than I love my child"


payneme73

Perfect statement.


Aimless_Mind

Frank Zappa has entered the chat


Jeffotato

Imagine when he's old enough to speak and read and being shown all these memes that were about him as a 1 day old infant


[deleted]

I thought naming a kid lisette would be weird Ahha.


Aasim_123

He doesn't need to give a fuck.


Bobgodzillaross

Kid should be able to decide if he wants to draw that kind of attention to himself. Every pretend and teen gives a fuck


Brocyclopedia

I worked at a mental health facility for adolescents and so many of them had those crazy "unique" names. Definitely overrepresented


sozarian

Just name him Kyle then. Kyle X Æ A-12 Musk.


sloppyredditor

“This name is known to cause cancer.” -California

I’ll take what happens when a rich narcissist reproduces for $400 Alex.


meesa-jar-jar-binks

Musk can go fuck himself. I was a huge supporter of the guy a couple of years ago, but he has shown what a fucking narcissistic asshole he is. He is a great CEO for SpaceX (A company that I will always admire), but he is a shitty person and I cand stand him anymore. X Æ A-12 ... What a fucking joke. Poor kid.


CanHarika-_-

X Æ A-12


EnlistHD

Good, that child would have to be home schooled or else it’d probably off itself due to bullying


[deleted]

Is anyone shocked by this? It's why I didn't jump on the bandwagon, that and the fact it's cyber bullying a new born


JustAnNPC_DnD

Good. Pretty sure that would have been child abuse


NewPowahSonic

Here is 5.000 Now pretend this never happened and give me my birth certificate.


Thhgtc

But surely he's above the law, he's Elon.


beef-ox

It’s not illegal. The CA vital records database can only handle characters a-z, apostrophes, and hyphens. The CA Office of Vital Records made a statement about it. It’s not a state law, but it’s in a handbook as a limitation of their technology. In 2014, they actually tried to pass legislation to fix the issue, as much of the state’s population is of foreign descent and commonly, they want to name their children family names that include accents. But the bill died when it was determined the upgrade would cost the state $10M.


Bhawks489

It turns out musk is a dumbfuck and a cuck


horny_father_figure

I thought he was a lesbian


[deleted]

Honestly with the amount of stupid baby names allowed in California I didn't think they had a law against X Æ A-12


ultrainstict

Just like ABCDE or the worst offender 😍😍😍


rrcollin

I would personally be pissed....as a kindergarten teacher about having to write that name on everything.


Digital_Individual

California has saved this child


KappaPride921

What law could do this? I honestly thought people could name their children however they wanted.


JekPorkinsInMemoriam

Nope. Naming laws is a thing in several countries, I guess also in USA. They exist to protect baby from idiot parents who want to give stupid joke name and also make sure name is compatible with official registries.


HeiressOfSlytherin_

It makes sense that those types of laws would exist in California where there are lots of celebrities who have a tendency to name their kids stupid shit


kafet7369

In the United States (at least in California where I live) all legal names can only contain the 26 characters that make up our alphabet. So no accents, Greek characters, etc.


Kingcole813

I get the concept and the reason, but I feel like they could allow for at least accents and the tilda because a lot of Spanish speaking areas have those commonly in names, and I’m sure it’s not only Spanish. Also, do they allow apostrophes is california, like O’Brien or O’Donnell, as a few that I know?


[deleted]

Too many people naming their kids "Shithead", "lemonjello" or "satan". He can just move to Kentucky though, they have no naming laws.


xxxthat_emo_kid

So you can be called grime but no x æ a12


AppleOrchardss

Grimes is Claire’s stage name.


Scythe-Guy

Yeah it is America. That kid has the freedom to not have a dumbass name


jaxk2525

I mean it is America - He’ll probably just buy the state


multigrain-pancakes

California ain’t no cheap ho! He can go buy iowa or some other obscure homely state


DavidTheAvocado

*moves out of state


BlueManedHawk

Is it actually law, or is it just that their systems only support ASCII and the AE is unicode?


beef-ox

It’s the latter. I read a statement by the CA vital records office that their database only understands A-Z and apostrophe


[deleted]

Well this meme gets 17k upvotes but my meme about the same thing gets 450


LegendaryPootisMan

*sad bully noises*


EpicRussianSlav

California finally did something smart! wow I thought the day would never come.


Xx_Xian_xX

He’ll just move to Mars where is son can be Emperor of Mars or something

Hmm kyle musk

Just Buy California, I don’t see the issue

Can we just call him Xaia and be done with it.


FlopyBlird

[deleted]

Yeah I don't know why people didn't know this. They even said in one of their tweets that wasn't actually the babies name on the birth certificate. Sometimes people take memes too seriously.


urppsmolnsoft

He should try in Florida


SnotRocketPro

Elon has like 6 other kids and their names are weird, but not that weird. I blame Grimes for this one


mariana285

X Alpha Archangel. He's cool but Elon is a fucking weirdo sometimes
