I don’t even like Stephen King, like at all, but this is fucking pathetic, even for my-hero

    With billions of dollars and all of the resources that implies, the most creative comeback he can do is plug in an LLM prompt and post it on social media.

    It’s the lack of creativity that gets me. If had a fraction of his money and his level of pettiness, I could have elaborate revenge plots. Or I’d hire one of any number of underpaid writers and have him at my side so I could actually zing my enemies.

    🤣 <- not tears of laughter

      It’s not even a good one. You’d think the IQ42069 epic genius could at least prompt the treat printer better, and it isn’t even a funny, clever, or even thoughtful insult: it’s “gays bad also u have money lolololol” which says a lot more about my-hero than anyone else.

      If I was a petty, billionaire asshole with 12 divorces under my belt, you can bet I’d have multiple Ocean’s Eleven-style teams on my payroll.

      So if Stephen King pisses me off, he’s going to wake up one morning and all the photos in his house, phone, and computer will be upside down. Anything he types on will have the keys randomized to different letters. All of his pens will have 97% of their ink removed so he runs out while in the middle of writing anything after thinking he found a pen that works.

      You could legitimately have someone gangstalked or be subjected to multiple flash dances per day. An unlimited number of pranks to the point the person is paranoid about opening a cupboard.

      Best Elon can come up with is an eggplant.

        I was going to say some boring shit about how spending money on that would be too much of an economic stimulus for a billionaire but now I’m imagining a wonderful world where a bunch of hexbears facilitate Elon musks lame grudges with the most insane pranks imaginable while the rest spend the rest of his money on actually worthwhile things while he’s distracted.

        Someone called Elon a loser on twitter? Time to find 600 people who look almost identical and replace everyone in their life with the doppelgängers for a day. Now let’s throw a few billion at African infrastructure.
