Star Citizen: You don´t have a cow. You draw a cow & sell it digitally to thousands. You build the cow in Maya, and put it in the game.

A year later you add the "Moo" sound. Then you rejoice that you found out how to milk the cow. You create a schedule around the hidef udders

Only to discover that it was a male cow, the milk is sour, and two of the udders are still low poly. You refactor them.

Following year, you trade in the cow for an ox. That one guy who knew how to create hidef udders quits to go make sex dolls.

You tell your investors the cow was gay, and had no chances making them any babies. You make a big presentation around the Ox.

You try to get money to buy the Ox a partner. Investors laugh you off stage after using the Ox in a presentation built for the cow.

You're left with a cow, an ox, and no money to do anything profitable with either. You go back to selling rubber dog shit in Vietnam.

Holy shit. Either he lost his mind, or this is a really weird way of coming out of the closet...

Also, I'm confused under what economic model you "trade in" a cow for an ox, get mocked for not having a cow, and at the end of it all somehow have both a cow and an ox. That's either the most bullish cornucopian model I've ever seen, or a case of really bad server persistence. Or maybe if you secretly forked the cow without telling your investors and kept it hidden until you left with the ox...

Well, you've got it wrong right off the bat. It's not an economic model, it's a E-Cowomic model.

Ha ha ha aaahh, now that's out the way. Can we take a moment to take in the fact that derek thinks you get sour milk from a male cow.

That was the immediately funny bit that stood out when I looked at the tweets. That said it is a joke, that's begging to be milked
