Elon Musk’s Hilarious Take On Typing Vs Writing Is Oh-So-Relatable
The meme painted a vivid picture of the pen feeling as heavy as a barbell as if the act of writing had morphed into some workout routine.

Due to the technological takeover, ancient relics like pen and paper have been kicked to the curb by their high-tech counterparts. It’s like the battle of the ages: Writing vs. Typing. In this new world, we’re all about those keyboard acrobatics, making pens and paper feel as obsolete as a floppy disk. If we question, when was the last time you wrestled with a pen to jot something down? Most of us would probably need a time machine to remember the last occasion. This shift has not spared even the likes of Elon Musk, the man behind Tesla and SpaceX, who recently took to the microblogging platform X (Formerly Twitter) to share his thoughts on the struggle of returning to the archaic art of handwriting.

In Musk’s post, he shared a meme that resonated with the masses, encapsulating the effort it takes to wield a pen after years of digital dominance. The meme painted a vivid picture of the pen feeling as heavy as a barbell as if the act of writing had morphed into some workout routine. The caption Musk chose read, “And the quality looks like you’re a child.”

The post promptly went viral, garnering over 27 million views. The comment section turned into a goldmine of relatable humour, with users sharing their own tales of handwritten woe.

A user lamented, “My hand literally cramps up after 2-3 sentences of writing.”

Another took a creative approach, sharing a picture of a hand with pins and needles, the classic black and white dots visually illustrating the sensation when the cable of modernity goes off. The accompanying text read, “POV: how my hand feels after writing on paper.”

Not to be outdone, an account shared a picture of a hand with fingers twisted in an indescribable way. The accompanying text humorously declared, “And after writing:” – as if the hand had just completed a gymnastics routine on the uneven bars of parchment.

A user shared their struggle, confessing, “I tried to write one page on paper the other day and got 1/4 of the way through, and my hand hurt. It’s like I forgot how to write. I think I was gripping too hard.”

The comments section resonated with Musk’s post, and users unleashed a wave of their own comedic brilliance in response.
