Message Therapy

Clever journalism at its finest, in my humble opinion.

I thought I was texting Elon Musk.

But a 25-year-old woman who works at a Sephora in Silicon Valley replied.

Apparently this happens to her every single day.

So I did a story on her:

She Gets Calls And Texts Meant For Elon Musk. Some Are Pretty Weird Lyndsay Tucker, who works at a Sephora beauty store in San Jose, Calif., has tech billionaire Elon Musk's old cellphone number. So every day, she fields calls and texts intended for him.

When your wife comes home from the hospital, it's nice to welcome her with a sweet Tweet. It's even better ... if you spell her name correctly.

Afraid you could never be skilled enough to write copy worthy of being posted on the Internet?

Pffft. Someone with an IQ in single digits was paid for this. How much worse could you possibly write?

"Keep in mind that the average IQ for someone who is considered to be of normal intelligence is between 95 and 105 – that means that there are definitely more than one person on this list that have the vast majority of us beat when it comes to what is going on inside their head at any given time."

Aced this OCD test.
What would you expect of The Message Therapist? My clients expect perfection and that requires a perfect score on such tests.

Shouldn't The Gainesville Times newspaper be able to spell "Gainesville" correctly?

So, was the lawyer lying when his pants caught fire?

Dear Stupid Crooks,

You could make more money with your scams if you hired me to edit your crooked pitches.

To contact me, call the FBI. They'll forward your message to me.

Thanks,

The Message Therapist
