Somehow, this looks less worse than whatever he is now
There’s something endearing about a young person trying to look cool by being edgy, completely oblivious to the fact that everyone sees through their facade. When a middle aged man is still trying to look cool by being edgy it’s decidedly less endearing.
Ok but he wasn’t really a young person 9 years ago
Edit: I thought someone mentioned this was 9 years ago but I don’t see where I could have read that, so nevermind. Also, fuck that guy.
You clearly didn’t read the entire comment.
It’s actually in the pic 😀
Ooooh so I wasn’t hallucinating after all… Thank you for giving me back some sanity!
9 years is in the picture.
This wasn’t him 9 years ago dumbass
Oh damn. Who’s the edgelord now?

not really
Post this at him on Twitter, captioned “you wish your hair was this good”
But that would require me actually using Twitter
It has evolved.
Fuckin’ dress like an awkward edgelord, go for it.
When this picture was the worst thing he was known for, his reputation was better than it is now
Elon Scissorhands.
Emo Musk
Emo Husk
Moe Suk
Suk moe
E for Whatever.
ngl, this looks way cooler than the current Elon Musk.
That’s clearly Michael Jackson

Adios, turd nuggets
Hey, tell me, how much do clothes cost in the Matrix?
They really missed out in Avatar by not giving his character metal legs.
“Permanently removed from the internet forever.” Once it’s on the internet, it’ll be there till the day you die.
But thanks to modern SEO, Ads and useless algorithms I can’t find shit
Once it’s on the internet, it’ll be there till the day you die.
Unless it’s something you want to stay. Then it vanishes into the ether, and nobody seems to have it archived anywhere.

It’s always sad. I read a bit about hobby gameboy game development and a few sites where stilll up, but a lot of links where dead. A few tools just disappeared with all download links dead.
That implies that all your photos disappear the moment you die
Whoops, but you know what I’m getting at right?
I think i do…
You’re saying that the native Americans were right, that photographs capture a part of your soul, and so when you die, the photographs die with you!(I understood what you said the first time, i just felt like being a bit of a silly goose)
Sometimes your photos appear only after you die!
Unless you actually want it scrubbed.
I’m reminded every year on my Facebook memories of this fact when I posted the Donald Trump Oprah interview where he said he’d run as a Republican because they’re the dumbest voters and we had a long conversation about it in my feed, and the video is removed. And every instance of it is gone. And snopes has a fake fact check on it, claiming it was from a magazine and was false. And people have discussions about it being a Mandela effect thing.
Except we quote it in our conversations on my old Facebook post.
The internet is not a bastion of unfettered memory that cannot be manipulated. That whole thing shattered that illusion for me.
What are you doing, JP?
Love me some grandmas boy references.
If only someone had saved it and could upload it again…
you know full well that’s not how the internet works, son
Yes, of cause, everyone things it will be online forever, no need to save it. Well, in this case it would have been good.
What’s the context here?
This picture used to exist on the internet, but Musk was able to permanently remove it forever.
I wish I could see it just one more time.
Elon: Thank goodness.
cuz i look like a fkn dooooouche
Honestly, even I would very much not want to review some of my style choices as a young person.
Barbra Streisand made it so that celebrities can delete things from the Internet permanently
Oh yeah she had a lot of success with that didn’t she
It’s also apparently a Halloween party photo but he did have removed forever from the Internet
Celeb Halloween party. Honestly, it’s pretty dope if he was going for 80s punk(ish). We’re the same age and I would have worn that in '89 or so. (Except I was far too broke to sport a coat like that. Fried fries at McDonalds to get my motorcycle jacket, best I could do.)

As someone who has worked fast food and currently works retail, there is no shame in that. Sometimes you gotta go through hell to get what you want. 🤜
really the goal most people hope to achieve is to get the highest paying, most dignified job possible.
The hard part is QUALIFYING for whatever job that is and as we all know, soooooo much work & effort & years & schooling goes into qualifying for any decent job.
It’s often TOO much effort for most people in fact, which is why so many of us end up working low paying jobs, because we get to the point we simply need to survive so we’d rather have even just a little bit of money than none at all 😟
So we settle for these entry level low-paying jobs and so many people get stuck there.
Pretty much. I get it. I’m in the same boat. Currently looking for other work but I have sciatica and live in the middle of nowhere and most of the jobs around here are manual labor.
I can do manual labor and really have very little problem with it; I just have to watch myself to make sure I don’t overdo it, and most companies seem to have a problem with that because so many out there don’t care. They just want higher production numbers, higher speed, faster results, and don’t give a shit about the people who genuinely work hard but just are slower than the average person.
Sorry for the ramble. I’m still a little salty about that. (That’s a lie; I’m very salty about it. :/ )
not enough hee hee
Elon is like.
Adios. Turd nuggets!
JP you’re fuckin’ weird
That’s the chick from resident evil right
I never saw it again
did he ever explain why he hates that photo so much? I think it’s kinda dapper with an attitude. Not entirely a bad photo.
Probably because it looks like he only speaks in anime quotes and brings his plastic replica katana (“well ackchyually, it’s a tachi, as you can see because of the way…”) when going to the mall with his mom.
Nobody likes to admit to them. To the mistakes they’ve made because of their youth.
