Elon Musk Effect

When you think so outside of the box people think you're crazy, but your idea ends up being way better than anyone thought.

Inspires people to come up with ideas to fix problems we didn't know we had.
Bro 1: "Bro, what if we made rockets that landed themselves upright after their flight, and dug tunnels under Los Angeles so we don't have to deal with traffic?"

Bro 2: "Bro that's crazy....so crazy it might just work."

Bro 1: "Thanks bro, I knew I could inspire you to think like a billionaire toddler. I call that shit the Elon Musk Effect!"

Elon Musk Effect

1) The name of the effect where someone has an idea for a product that is so outside the box, no one thinks it will work, but it works way better than people thought it would.

2) (On Twitter) When Elon Musk links something or references a website, his followers (eg, the musketeers), will immediately click the link, overwhelming the site's servers and acting as a DDOS, meaning only the first several people to click the link will see the page, and the rest will have to wait for the site to die down.
1) Elon Musk: What if... like... we landed rockets on a drone ship in the ocean?

Everyone: lmao good luck with that
Elon Musk: *does it*
Everyone: Guess thats just the Elon Musk Effect

2) Elon Musk: stankmemes.com strikes again
everyone: *goes to site*
everyone: site is down, I blame the Elon Musk Effect.

Elon 'Bratan' Musk

The biggest Bratan in the Universe. 6,022*10^23 times bigger and better than anything you will ever achieve. Let that sink in for a moment. For reference, that number looks like this: 602200000000000000000000, with this many zeros (23). That would be like comparing the biggest Bratan in the observable Universe to 6,022*10^23 Toyota Corollas.

LET THAT SINK IN FOR A MOMENT

Elon Musk

Someone with the reputation of a successful businessman and super genius. In reality, he's nothing more than a con artist who buys his way into successful companies and then forces the original owners out. As far as genius goes, his only talent is hyping up bullshit products to get money from investors and the government.

People tend not to notice how stupid he is until he steps into a field they're familiar wit.
Man 1: Have you heard Elon Musk's new car
Man 2: I don't pay any attention to that fraud.

Elon Musk salute

The Elon Musk salute or the Musk salute is a variant of the Bellamy, Roman or Nazi salute that is invented by the South African businessman of the same name. The gesture may incorporate a hand wave, such as towards an existing or perceived audience, usually as an attempt to exaggerate low charisma or disguise the true nature of the salute.
Person A: Hey look, Elon's waving at us!
Person B: Nah, he's just doing the Elon Musk salute.
