Elon Musk believes ‘The Simpsons’ predicted his takeover on Twitter

The Simpsons have done the impossible again.

Elon Musk points to a 2015 episode of the animated Fox sitcom that apparently hinted at his Twitter takeover.

“Simpson predicts I’ll buy Twitter S26E12”, Musk, 51, tweeted on Saturday.

The episode, titled “The Musk That Fell to Earth”, opens with Lisa Simpson tending to a birdhouse with the words “Home Tweet Home” written on it. She feeds the chicks when the bald eagle snatches them and kills them.

As the eagle flies away, Musk arrives in his spaceship. The fire from the plane burns the eagle, a longtime emblem of the United States

“Get ready, family. We’re about to meet a creature with intelligence far beyond our own,” says Homer Simpson, then tells Bart to grab a baseball bat.

Musk takes off his space helmet and introduces himself: “Hi, I’m Elon Musk.”

Homer throws a stick at the head. Lisa screams, “Daddy, no! Elon Musk is probably the greatest inventor alive.

The camera pans to a new high-tech birdhouse that has attracted several birds.

“I think humanity wants a change once in a while,” says Lisa as Musk gets back on his ship.

The Simpsons has long been known for predicting future scenarios from real life.

Simpsons fans are also convinced the show predicted England and America’s pathetic 0-0 draw for the 2022 World Cup played on Friday.

In the 1997 episode “The Cartridge Family”, the family watches a TV commercial for a match to decide “which nation is the greatest on Earth”, but within seconds of the action, Homer yells “boring!”

A number of other predictions that ultimately came true include Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential bid and Germany’s lifting of the 2014 World Cup.
