Elon Musk Plays With The Boring Company Flamethrower

We’re still not sure if Elon Musk is going to turn out to be the savior of mankind/humanity or Zorg from Fifth Element.  Seriously, only time is gonna answer this question, right?

Maybe you’ve heard about the Boring Company and their pre orders for the official company flamethrower.  No, that’s not a joke, it’s a real thing.  Well, real in that you can pay $500 for a flamethrower that may or may not actually help defend against xenomorphs.  You can check out the website here.

They also have now a pre order for their official company ‘overpriced’ flame extinguisher for $30.  Which of COURSE you’re gonna need if you order this thing that Elon says is “great for roasting nuts”.

Great for roasting nuts 🔥 🥜

“Don’t do this,” he says.  We assume he means it in the Mythbusters way.
