In December, Elon Musk’s Boring Company, his outfit looking to solve traffic issues via a series of underground transportation tunnels, launched a fairly plain baseball cap. In what was one of the most hilarious throwaway lines ever, he also noted that if the company sold 50,000 of the plain dad hats, they’d also release a branded flamethrower. Yes, a flamethrower. Well, he wasn’t lying. Here’s The Boring Company Flamethrower, a $600 device that’s apparently available if you know the password to the site. The image shared is of a prototype, and Musk and co. claim the final product, which will ship in April, will be better. Excuse us while we try to guess random words for the rest of the day.
