Marina Schwarz + 1,576 January 30, 2018 Elon Musk is selling flamethrowers and it's not fake news. it's a funding strategy for his Boring Company. I can't help but wonder what will be next? I very much like his approach to business, I have to say. Is there anyone else today with such fun ideas about how a business may be funded? It's kind of genius getting on the twin wagon of Musk-mania and the zombie fad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kate Turlington + 44 KT January 30, 2018 Love it. It's almost like he's just taking the piss ... and getting rich doing it. Enjoy the odd optimistic-cynicism. Ordering a flamethrower now ... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kate Turlington + 44 KT January 30, 2018 Maybe new Tesla's will come with a gun rack for flame throwers? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodent + 1,424 January 30, 2018 I absolutely must have one. Only $500 a pop, and not federally regulated! LOVE IT. You never know when the zombie apocalypse will be upon us. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodent + 1,424 January 30, 2018 And sales are already $5 million so far. Not bad... not bad... But leave it to California to spoil all the fun: https://www.theverge.com/2018/1/29/16948090/elon-musk-boring-company-flamethrower-california-sales-ban-miguel-santiago Do us a favor and secede already.

Vlad Kovalenko + 115 VK January 31, 2018 So this guy wants to ban on Musk’s flamethrower. I can’t believe this is actually an issue as it’s just a glorified propane torch, meant as a novelty. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Selva + 252 SP January 31, 2018 Well to some people, this is an inhumane dangerous flamethrower. To us others, it is a novelty butane torch. That’s why marketing matters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vlad Kovalenko + 115 VK January 31, 2018 Like they have to worry about flamethrowers. Today we could just walk in local store and buy a gun legally but we should be really scared of barbecue nerf guns? Yeah right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Varga + 123 AV January 31, 2018 They are already restricted in CA and require fire marshall approval to use because of the risk of brush fires, what actually makes sense. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vlad Kovalenko + 115 VK January 31, 2018 The problem is when a politician says something about an issue in such a way that you can tell they are entirely clueless. Like this is a real problem. It would be better not to waste precious legislative time doing nonsense, like this one, to ban a flamethrower. With news like this it sounds more important to do it than to deal with any actual problems. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
