Boo. Is he targeting a certain forgotten generation? Or X marks the spot? Losing interest in Twitter

Everyone knows he smokes the wacky tobaccy.
He also recently admitted to "microdosing" ketamine. This wasn't long after videos of him stoned out of his gourd at nightclubs surfaced. So, yeah, everything he's doing is quite possibly done while high as a kite.

There needs to be a third option: Elon really wants to make this change—see his affinity for the X and it’s use in other products/companies he’s associated with—but will be forced to switch it back eventually. He will claim it was all a big joke and will never admit that he screwed up. It will be the middle aged billionaires version of the schoolyard “I meant to do that”. Sure Elon, sure you did.

Updated the poll to say "be gone soon". That could be a week or one month. Past 90 days, I would say he was very serious for sure.
The branding still has the blue tweet on the left side. Elon said that tweets will now be called X's.

There's also the issue of Facebook and Microsoft already owning trademarks of the letter X.

I kinda see the point. He's damaged the Twitter brand so much, rebranding may actually help.
