Re: Elon MUSK hosting SNL, a fan tweets: "No one wants this"

If SNL is doing this just for eyeballs, they might as well just put Drumpf on again. Everybody would look - his zombie followers for their cult and everybody else for the trainwreck of it all.

Elon Musk will host Saturday Night Live with musical guest Miley Cyrus... as fans of the show react to the surprising choice: 'No one wants this'

.... Amongst a flurry of 'OMG, NO,' comments on the show's Instagram account and Twitter, one remark of approval was hard to come by.

SNL getting hosted by Elon MUSK in 2 weeks. NOTE to him and other whack billionaires:

The Romans had their share of humongous egos, but at least they took a stab, so to speak, at humility by having somebody saying, "Remember, you are human/mortal" next to the maniac having a glory day.

We've just gotten past one supposed billionaire thinking he deserved anything he wanted, yes even pocketing "honors" and knickknacks like hosting SNL. Well, MUSK, Mark CUBAN, et al., your vast material success and even the accomplishments that got it for you are their own thing, NOT transferrable to other endeavors or marks of honor and glory - or *SERVICE*.

If you're not naturally lovable, gracious, or humane your accomplishments and material success can't buy or appropriate them for you - not even stupendous charitable donations.

You can afford to hire somebody to do nothing else except to stand next to you and whisper in your ear, "Remember, you are human/mortal," until you get fed up and have them executed.

There was this dude in line to pay for a set of golf clubs and he was playing to the gallery about making sure everybody knew it and how he had cash to burn, and said to the minimum wage cashier, "The difference between a boy and a man is the price of their toys." She and everybody ignored him.

A Roman emperor played at being in the theater, another at being a gladiator, and we had one of your ilk try to own our government. It's been done, MUSK. Just play your games and play with your toys and leave the rest of us alone.

1. It almost always goes badly when

people like him are on. Sports guys too are usually awful. (Not always, but usually)

2. "goes badly" - well, that's *my* incentive for watching it!

5. Unless

it was Derek Jeter, but this skit was along time ago. Still funny.

6. That's why the almost

some of the sports people are delightful and funny.
