Twitter congratulated Elon Musk and Grimes on the birth of their baby with a trending hashtag that fits the 2020s power pair: it’s a confusing string of letters, numbers, and symbols.
That’s because Musk quietly announced the birth in a series of responses that included a photo of him holding his sixth child (he’s the first child of his friend Claire “c” Boucher), a photo of the baby with a tattoo clearly visible on his face, and also what Musk claims is his son’s name: “X Æ A-12”.
Musk and Grimes are huge trolls, which has led to confusion about whether the couple had a baby in the first place. Musk’s eccentricities and erratic Twitter habit have gotten him into trouble in the past, adding in the days leading up to the birth. of his sixth child. Grimes, admittedly, also likes to fool other people and once claimed that her Adidas-sponsored “training regimen” included “astrosliding” to other dimensions.
Most likely, the announcement of the call is a joke about all the memes that led to the birth of the crazy tech call that the duo would choose for their child, and it could also imply a hint as to what the call is. as Musk liked a tweet that says the letters stand for “X Ash Archangel. “
Anyway, other people had a lot to say about “X Æ A-12,” starting with their perspectives on how to pronounce it. One user referred to the famous Vine music video, in which Jesy Nelson, a member of Little Mix, was trying to talk to a Jamaican. accessory and spoke gibberish instead.
Another tweet comparing the pronunciation to a popular TikTok that English listeners turned into a meme, though it only features a daring German teenager.
Ellie Schnitt, host of the Barstool Sports podcast, said it sounds like a randomly generated wifi password.
Many memes referred to what Grimes and Musk would be like as parents. It uses a popular dubbing of electronic noises about a user talking to laugh at how Grimes asks her son to leave his room blank.
The memes highlight the fact that Grimes is just as eccentric as her boyfriend, the Tesla CEO, and that she meddles in many aesthetics of futuristic fantasy and cyberliterature: her music defies genres and says her life is as strange as she is.
Many of Grimes’ memes about her and her baby use electronic beeps and bloops to update the English language, which is only fair, since Grimes uses phrases, characters, and gibberish that aren’t in English all the time in her art.
Others made jokes about how Grimes and Musk’s son would act, comparing him to the creepy fictional cryptid “Siren Head” created by artist Trevor Henderson that is a TikTok meme.
A fan of Grimes used a TikTok of a woman dancing while crying to express her feelings about the musician having a baby with the arguable tech titan.
A tweet echoed Key’s sketch
And compare Musk to the matriarch of “Parasite. “
Boucher’s hospital room is hard work compared to a flash of blinding light on the “iCarly” TV screen.
The boy himself imagined himself as a giant masked creature running around the backyard with his classmates.
And finally, the “screaming cat electronic buzz” meme came back to illustrate how Grimes would utter her first words. Congratulations to Musk and Boucher!
