Even Musk has acknowledged that at times he has shot himself in the foot with his humor and active tweeting.
He told BBC earlier this year that he probably "should not tweet after 3:00 a.m."
"Have I shot myself in the foot multiple times? Yes," Musk said. "If you're gonna tweet something that maybe is controversial, save it as a draft then look at it the next day, and see if you still want to tweet it."
In the past, Musk has said he's prone to tweeting from the toilet.
"I'm tweeting more or less stream of consciousness," he said at a TED Talk. "I'm literally on the toilet or something, like, 'Oh this is funny' and then tweet that out."
