ELON TUSK
The One and Only Meme Created by Elon Musk Himself
The Legend of Elon Tusk
Elon Musk appeared in Rick and Morty Season 4, Episode 3 as "Elon Tusk" - an interdimensional version of himself with tusks. The best part? He came up with the character himself. This was the first meme Elon actually created, not just reacted to.
It's literally just "what if Elon had tusks?" That's it. And somehow, that's what makes it perfect.
Why It Works
The character shows up, does some heist stuff with Rick and Morty, and that's about it. It doesn't overstay its welcome. The joke is simple: guy named Elon Musk, but with tusks. Elon Tusk.
Most celebrity cameos try way too hard. This one didn't. Elon voiced it himself and fully committed to the bit. In a multiverse where anything can exist, why not have a version of yourself with tusks? It's stupid enough to be funny.

The Only One
This is still the only meme Elon actually initiated himself. Not reposting someone else's meme, not reacting to Twitter stuff - he pitched this character to the Rick and Morty creators and it made it into the show.
Years later, people still talk about Elon Tusk. It's become part of Rick and Morty history and proof that sometimes the dumbest idea is actually the best one.
