Elon Musk recently revealed a peculiar “problem” to his followers on X (formerly known as Twitter). The Tesla and SpaceX CEO shared a candid photo of his bed side table, which appeared to be a mini shrine to his favorite beverage—Diet Coke. The image shows several cans of Diet Coke cluttered on the nightstand, along with a glass of water and a set of headphones resting on the table. A pair of black boots can be seen placed beside his bed side table. Musk captioned the post with a cheeky remark: “I have a drinking problem.”
In a follow-up post, Musk doubled down on the joke, writing, “Clearly, I need to switch to glass bottle DC,” referring to the glass-bottled version of the soft drink often favored for its premium feel and taste.
