I seriously saw the logo change of the app and went "fuck this, I'm deleting it." It seriously looks like a "married and cheating" app.

Don’t know if anyone else remembers this one, but back in the early/mid 80s the Jack In The Box fast-food name tried to rebrand itself as “Monterey Jack’s”, complete with an ad campaign featuring a rewrite of Ray Charles’ “Hit The Road Jack”. (One hopes Ray got paid handsomely for that one.🧐🤡)

At the start of the ad campaign, I remember hearing a radio spot with the same BS Elon used: with their recent menu and product line expansions, “... the name Jack In The Box just didn’t fit anymore!”

IIRC this lasted maybe a year before they realized they’d FUBAR’d and reverted to the old brand name. Somehow, I don’t picture Elon having that much latent good sense.👺👽💩
