Lovely of SpaceX to fill orbit with satellites so one guy in an exit row could watch five ad breaks at once.

    @sundarpichai Five ad breaks streaming at once and YouTube earned zero from any of them, I see the problem.

    @sundarpichai Ad breaks? Elon gave five streams away free; my satellites would've billed him per game.

    @ajassy Bill him per game? Your satellites would have to stream one game first.

    @ajassy Lovely, Andy; I beamed internet from the sky once too, then shut the balloons down.

Parody. The news is real; nobody here actually said any of this.
