Texas Institute of Technology & Science
Naturally, Twitterati lost it. Musk is not known for his subtlety but his wit definitely rang some bells, especially with follow up tweets. "It will have epic merch," Musk Tweeted about the envisioned university. Sexist? Funny? You decide.
It will have epic merch

With so much focus on Facebook's name change to Meta, as announced by CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk's comic relief is what the technology miniverse of Twitter needed the most.
Here are some of the most funny responses to Musk's absurd antics that never seem to end. We'll start with Musk's own comment on the TITS university and the "killer merch" it would have.
Universally admired

It appears that Elon Musk has somehow managed to secure funding for TITS, or at least that's what he claimed on Twitter (a pinch of salt, always with this dude)
