The other day, I realized that in the Saga of Elno and Lizard Boy (credit to the commenter who made the “Elno, typo and it stays” joke the other day), Elon Musk is comparable to Ron DeSantis and Mark Zuckerberg is coming out of this looking like Disney. We don’t want to root for either of them, but push comes to shove, everyone but the Blue Check Bros (they’re the MAGAs in this comparison) is rooting so hard for Musk to get his ass kicked that we don’t care who takes him down.
The cage match drama may be finally coming to an end, though. We last left off with Musk trying to rent an Italian Colosseum to fight jiu-jitsu lover Zuck sometime after he’s healed from a shoulder surgery that he allegedly needs. Zuck responded by saying Musk “isn’t serious” and that it was “time to move on.” Well, guess which very mature owner of multiple companies had to escalate things by threatening to show up at his opponent’s house?
Mark Zuckerberg says he is out of town after Elon Musk said he would drive a Tesla to the Facebook CEO’s home in the hope he could fight the tech billionaire.
Mr Musk took to X, the site formerly known as Twitter, to detail his latest plans to try and fight with the Facebook founder after Mr Zuckerberg cancelled it saying that his rival was not serious about the bout.
“Knock, knock … challenge accepted … open the door @finkd,” tweeted Mr Musk on Monday.
And he added: “For the Tesla FSD test drive in Palo Alto tonight, I will ask the car to drive to @finkd’s house.
“Will also test latest X livestream video, so you can monitor our adventure in real-time! If we get lucky and Zuck…actually answers the door, the fight is on!”
And in a follow-up post, he took more shots at his tech rival for ditching the contest.
“(Zuck thread coming soon about how he would of course love to fight anytime, but blah blah UFC something something)” he wrote.
But a spokesperson for Mr Zuckerberg says that Mr Musk’s journey would be pointless as the Meta boss was not even there.
“Mark is traveling right now and isn’t in Palo Alto. Also, Mark takes this sport seriously and isn’t going to fight someone who randomly shows up at his house,” the spokesperson told The Verge.

Of course, after he found out that Zuck wasn’t home, Musk did what Musk does and went on Twitter X to blame and taunt him for being a grown-up person about the whole thing. The maturity oozes through Lonnie like pudding through Ronnie’s fingers.
[A]ccording to Elon, Zuck just flat-out didn’t want to do it.
“Zuck declined,” Musk said emphatically.
That’s when he said he offered to fight in Zuckerberg’s backyard Octagon instead.
“I suggested his home as ‘safe space,’” Musk said. “Tragically, he was ahem ‘traveling.’”

Again, how unlikeable do you have to be to make Mark Zuckerberg look like a reasonable adult? I know Elon isn’t capable of embarrassment, but it’s all so cringe that I think I may be getting second-hand embarrassment for him. Can you imagine if he had actually shown up at his house?! That would have been so unhinged, but then again, unhinged chaos is Elno’s thing.
So, I know I said earlier that this is likely where our story ends, but honestly, when it comes to Elon Musk, who the eff even knows anymore? We may be stuck with this nonsense until he finds another shiny object or person to annoy that make him forget all about this noise. Until then, Team Zuckermouse, I guess.
