Your average episode is just empty and boring, but with this there's at least a chance it's bad enough that it's worth paying attention to.

      it certainly isn't the apex of humor but there is a striking juxtaposition between the first idea and the second two

      coming up with "baby shark tank" requires a certain cleverness I don't think musk possesses, which is reinforced by the fact that he feels like he has to explain it in the tweet

      the other two are barely even jokes and are exactly the kind of things a pompous moron would interject when someone else is in the process of being funny

      "SNL writers" and "talent" don't belong in the same sentence together. There are a lot of YouTubers that could make better sketches than the pablum they've been putting out lately.

      Although, that is probably due to the dictatorial oversight by the lizardman they've let control SNL for over 45 years now. Like how the NYT or mainstream press might have some good writers, but the editorial boards are dogshit.

        I honestly think some of the actresses and actors are pretty good, but you can't be funny with no funny material to work with.
