Drake is a stellar 25 year old Canadian rapper, who enjoys things like wine spritzers and $6,000 socks. T. Boone Pickens is an old white Texan oil billionaire, like something from a cartoon. Twitter just made their worlds crash.
Drake, in a suitably Drake moment of self-reflection, tweeted that "The first million is the hardest." Helpful for the rest of us-apparently the dude has made some money? Are you impressed? T. Boone Pickens, who apparently follows Drake on Twitter, sure isn't, replying "The first billion is a helluva lot harder" with a mic-drop retweet.
At this point Drake's laptop screen probably exploded in his face, but he was able to reply with some (deserved) humility: "+Pablo just stunted on me heavy." Yes he did.
There has never before been a point in history when a young black guy rich off of Canadian soap operas and luxury super-rap could exchange words with a quasi-eccentric super-rich octogenarian who loves wind power. Now they can-in public. And that, simply, is awesome.
Moreover, Twitter has now peaked and concluded, so pack your things and stop reading. It's been fun! [Thanks, Spiros!]
