On Thursday, tech billionaire Elon Musk shared a funny problem he has on his social media platform, X (formerly Twitter). He posted a photo of his messy bedside table, which looked like a little shrine to his favorite drink—Diet Coke. The picture showed lots of Diet Coke cans, a glass of water, and some headphones. Next to his bedside table were a pair of black boots. Musk jokingly wrote, “I have a drinking problem.”
In another post, he made the joke funnier by saying he should switch to glass-bottled Diet Coke because it feels better and tastes great.
Many fans reacted to his post, poking fun at his love for the drink. One person joked, “Diet Coke is evidence of MAGAing!” while another said, “I see a glass of water! It’s a good start.” Others pointed out the messiness of his room. A user wrote, “I can help you fix everything wrong with it,” showing that people were paying attention.
Musk’s love for Diet Coke isn’t new. He’s shared before how much he enjoys it, even calling it “awesome.” He once said, “Diet Coke & Coke Zero are awesome. I don’t care if drinking gallons of it shaves a bit of life off. Worth it.” Interestingly, this fun post reminded people that Diet Coke contains aspartame, which has been linked to health issues like strokes and even cancer, according to the World Health Organization.
