Elon Musk’s now-famous “funding secured” tweet continues to evolve into an internet meme.

Someone on Urban Dictionary, a website dedicated to explaining modern slang, has taken a jab at Tesla CEO Musk’s tweet, in which he declared ‘funding secured’ in regards to his plans to take Tesla private.

The Urban Dictionary post defines ‘”unding secured” as “when you have no idea where you’re gonna get the money,” and gave an example of the phrase used in a sentence: “Me to my new girl: ‘Taking you to Hawaii this winter. Funding secured,'” followed by the hashtags #money #funds #budget #broke #bankrupt.
