Of course Elon Musk's joke-turned-real-product flamethrowers (sorry, "not-a-flamethrowers") have the most ridiculous terms and conditions.
Thursday morning Musk's tunnel and construction business, The Boring Company, emailed out lawyer-approved terms for anyone who ordered the eccentric billionaire's barely legal idea. Since the not-a-flamethrowers are technically torches that don't actually throw balls of fire they are mostly allowed, but they still produce flames of real, hot heat.

You are signing on to all responsibility for "showing off to my friends or romantic interests."

For those who got in on the flamethrower action, you have until May 24 to agree to the Boring Company's terms, which include the company's responsibilities surrounding use, delivery, and refunds in the event "I receive the not-a-flamethrower and I'm not that into it."

As Musk says, "Great for roasting nuts."
