re: I've got to say: The Tesla Roadster in space is really cool

I think this is why people hate on the Musk fanboys. The guy needed simple weight to simulate a payload so he threw a car in there and everyone starts sucking his cock and calling him a genius. A bunch of steel plates would've served the same purpose. You nerds bring the hate on yourselves because of your starry-eyed nonsense.

Meh, I didn't see anywhere on page 1 where anyone called putting a car en route to Mars is "genius"

All anyone said is that it's cool as shite. And if you don't think seeing the pics coming out so far are pretty darn cool then I'm not sure what to tell ya, there's no real reason not to think it's a cool thing.

Also, he did it for publicity. Would we be talking as much about it if he put those steel beams instead of a Tesla Roadster? Nah.
