Elon Musk is the South African billionaire best known for being the successful CEO of companies like Tesla Motors and SpaceX, the first private company ever to launch a rocket into space. He’s also known as being a bit of an oddball in real life, a persona he has gleefully embraced on the internet.

Musk has always been active on Twitter, tweeting out updates and opinions to his 27 million followers with a regularity that some investors find concerning. After a series of tweets turned public perception against him in 2017 he took drastic measures to turn his image around, starting with a bizarre yet hilarious interview with Joe Rogan for the entertainer’s “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast. He followed up that marijuana-laced visit with a live trip to meet PewDiPie, the most-watched YouTuber online today. Next thing we knew Elon had somehow used memes to become relevant to an entirely new demographic: the young people of the internet.

Now the “likable weirdo” has become the poster child for self-deprecation in the form of web memes. If you tweet an Elon meme at Elon, he might just reply. Thanks to the way he has embraced meme culture he’s now considered to be one of the most popular public figures on the internet, right after Bob Ross and Keanu Reeves.

There’s nothing ordinary about Elon, which is why these two reaction images have picked up where the old Drake meme left off.

We’re not saying he’s a robot, but we’ve never seen him fully submerged in water now, have we?

Investors Hate Him!

Via Reddit

His little on-air smoking session with Joe Rogan may have tanked Tesla’s stock, but it definitely didn’t hurt Elon’s public image online.

Not only will he probably see your meme, he might even reply!

Why Is That Funny?

After Elon laughed uproariously at a meme of a dead deer in a swimming pool, the internet wasn’t sure whether to love him or hate him. We went with love him because after all, it’s the internet, brah. It’s dark.

He’s big on artificial intelligence, but so far he seems to be focused solely on building a rocket to get off this rapidly-dying hell hole we call Earth. Go figure.
