There's a Reddit thread about what's the worst state.  Most of the top comments say Mississippi.  Lol.

My state came up, only to say it didn't have to worry about being brought up in the thread.

Why is that worst?

[the-pi-guy]

Why is that worst?

"The state is worst in education.
It is the poorest.
It is the fattest.
It has the worst life expectancy.
It has the worst infant mortality.
It has terrible weather all year.
It's um-not-technology-or-art-oriented. Mississippi's neighbor, Alabama, at least has Huntsville full of rocket scientists and Muscle Shoals full of musicians."

How much of that is true?

Just checked them all.  

Right now they aren't quite the worst on education.  They were for a while.   But right now they are 3rd from the bottom.

How much of that is true?

As Pi says it's basically true, but I don't think it has a stigma as a bad place to live. Mostly just a place people love to mock online.

So Tesla is in trouble.  

Downgraded to junk status.

An autopilot death.

Elon's April fool's was bad timing.  

A large recall last month

And a lawsuit.

I wouldn't say they're in trouble, but they could be in trouble. I think the quarterly results will push them one way or another.


Also the april fool's joke was kinda stupid but it's only kinda funny because of the timing. Wouldn't work as a joke under different circumstances.

What was the April fool's joke?

Also I hope they aren't in trouble, I want a Tesla!

Tesla Goes Bankrupt
Palo Alto, California, April 1, 2018 -- Despite intense efforts to raise money, including a last-ditch mass sale of Easter Eggs, we are sad to report that Tesla has gone completely and totally bankrupt. So bankrupt, you can't believe it.

Elon was found passed out against a Tesla Model 3, surrounded by "Teslaquilla" bottles, the tracks of dried tears still visible on his cheeks.

This is not a forward-looking statement, because, obviously, what's the point?
