Why play Rock Paper Scissors with your hands when you can do it with a machine? That’s the concept behind this game by builder Milan Sekiz, and it’s wonderful. It’s the simplest of games, but when determining who gets the front passenger seat (“shotgun”), who’s gets the last slice of pizza or who gets to change the diaper, there is no better method.

Elon himself even uttered an unpublishable expletive when a shatter-proof test didn’t go as well as planned. While the electric pickup indeed boasts some rather impressive stats, (like winning a tug-of-war with a Ford F-150, ranging 250-500 miles without charging and doing 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds) the overall angular design resembles something out of a bad 80’s movie. Quickly the jokes and memes flourished with a common theme being a kid could have drawn it. I’m pretty sure ten year old me made quite a few concept drawings that were similar to it.
