No more Twitter, hello “Titter”. Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters now displays a somewhat modified sign. In fact, the “w” has been repainted white to disappear and make way for this word, both a way of talking about a strip club and a reference to breasts. A joke to be attributed to the boss of the social network, Elon Musk.
Elon Musk had considered removing the letter “w” entirely to perfect this tasteful joke, but as reported on his Twitter account, the owner of the venue rejected this request. “So we painted it the same color as the back panel. Problem solved!” welcomed the billionaire.

The idea had already been germinating in Elon Musk’s head for several months. Even before Twitter’s acquisition of him. In April 2022, when the first takeover rumors were circulating, the Tesla boss was already having fun with the same joke, asking his followers if the social network should change its name.
This joke adds to the list of aesthetic changes made by Elon Musk in recent days, such as the temporary modification of the logo of the web application with the DogeCoin shiba. Meanwhile, Twitter continues to lose money. Bought for $44 billion, Twitter is now worth $20 billion by Elon Musk’s own estimates. It remains to be seen if the sexual connotations displayed in front of the headquarters will increase the value of the company again.
