"He got 25 hours in a day": Internet in splits as Elon Musk reveals spray painting stick figures as a prank on Tesla employees

Elon Musk once again proved that being a billionaire doesn't mean you grew up with prankster vibes. In a recent reveal, Musk showed that at the Tesla factory, he labeled malfunctioning machines not with a simple note or a spreadsheet but with spray-painted stick figures on them.

Because, of course, why do normal company procedures when you can turn it into an art project? This was Musk's way of informing the day shift what needed to be removed, though it probably also left some workers wondering if their gear overnight had acquired a personality.

Elon Musk took to his X account and posted a picture of the spray-painted stick figures. The caption of the picture reads:

"A senior exec at Tesla sent me some funny pics from days in the factory where I was trying to show the construction team day shift what equipment wasn’t working and needed to be removed. So, I spray-painted stick figures on them."

As soon as the post went viral, someone (@barkmeta) took to his X account and commented:

"elon is literally everywhere. he got 25 hours in a day"

One X user said that Elon Musk must have discovered an additional hour in the day since he is able to somehow be everywhere at once. And seriously, at this point it would not surprise anyone.

One moment he is driving a Tesla, the next moment he's posting memes on Twitter, then rockets are being launched, and now we hear he has been moonlighting as a factory graffiti artist. If anyone has mastered how to warp time, it's most likely Musk—either that, or he's cloned himself and we just haven't heard the announcement yet.

And voila, the internet has made Elon Musk's spray-painting stunts its latest phenomenon. His fans on X are responding in equal measures ranging from awe to utter comedy, speculating as to whether or not he's a hands-on boss or is just having a ball with production equipment.

Others think he puts extra hours into each day, while others are merely here for the madness. Let's take a look at what the internet has to say about Musk's surprise side hustle as a stick-figure graffiti artist.
