In celebration of their weird-ass 2020, let's countdown some of their "finest" moments.
Coming in at #22 is Elon Musk, on March 6, literally right before the shutdowns, saying "The coronavirus panic is dumb."
The coronavirus panic is dumb
How profound!
At #21 we have Egypt's Minister of International Cooperation inviting Elon to check out the pyramids after he tweeted that "Aliens built the pyramids obv."
I follow your work with a lot of admiration. I invite you & Space X to explore the writings about how the pyramids were built and also to check out the tombs of the pyramid builders. Mr. Musk, we are waiting for you 🚀. @elonmusk https://t.co/Xlr7EoPXX4
What is going on?
At #20 is Grimes showing us her "Pregnancy Skincare & Psychedelic Makeup Routine" for Vogue.

This is honestly one of my favorite YouTube videos of the year. You really get a sense of who Grimes is from this video. Also I lose it every time she just starts drawing on her forehead.
At #19 we have Elon saying "FREE AMERICA NOW" during the peak of the first wave of the pandemic.
FREE AMERICA NOW
Which brings us to #18, Ariana Grande's mother, Joan, taking him down for saying it.
@elonmusk How incredibly irresponsible of you.... and you think you are a person of science and technology... you're a disgrace.... and now I have to get rid of my TESLAs... oh well...oh... and you clearly are not very smart! #BoycottTesla
Probably the most random interaction of the year.
At #17 is this picture of a knife that Grimes has in her wall as a decoration.
How grimes just nonchalantly has a knife in her wall and a baby in the same house 😭
Just because.
#16 is another profound Elon tweet.
You don’t have a soul, you are a soul
#15 is this tweet from Elon saying he's gonna sell all of his physical possessions.
I am selling almost all physical possessions. Will own no house.
OK.
#14 is this tweet from Grimes comparing having a baby to the dark souls of Tamagotchis.
Having a baby is like the dark souls of tamagotchi
Also OK.
At #13 is the public fight Elon and Grimes got over pronouns.
Pronouns suck
As we all know, couples that fight publicly on Twitter stay together <3.
#12 is the first picture of their baby!
@TeslaGong @PPathole @priscillabanana
#11 is this picture of Elon and the baby that is captioned in German, "The baby cannot use a spoon yet."
Das baby kann noch keinen löffel benutzen
Coming in at #10 is Elon tweeting his support for Kanye West's presidential bid.
@kanyewest You have my full support!
Naturally.
And at #9 is Elon saying Ghislaine Maxwell photobombed him at the Vanity Fair party.
@HandleOfRy Don’t know Ghislaine at all. She photobombed me once at a Vanity Fair party several years ago. Real question is why VF invited her in the first place 🤔
At #8 we have this July 1 picture of America's favorite duo: Kanye and Elon.
When you go to your boys house and you’re both wearing orange 🍊
They're perfect for each other.
And at #7 we have Grimes' reflection in that glass tank thing behind them.
#6 is Grimes' "Food Diaries "where she shares her famous "sludge" recipe.

Lots of Vegenaise! Lots of couscous!
#5 is when Elon revealed baby X's name for the first time.
@priscillabanana X Æ A-12 Musk
#4 is when Grimes told us how to pronounce it.
#3 was when Grimes explained what it actually meant.
•X, the unknown variable ⚔️ •Æ, my elven spelling of Ai (love &/or Artificial intelligence) •A-12 = precursor to SR-17 (our favorite aircraft). No weapons, no defenses, just speed. Great in battle, but non-violent 🤍 + (A=Archangel, my favorite song) (⚔️🐁 metal rat)
#2 is Elon correcting Grimes about the name of their child publicly on Twitter.
@elonmusk I am recovering from surgery and barely alive so may my typos b forgiven but, damnit. That was meant to be profound 🦔
This kind of encompasses their whole relationship to me.
And coming in at #1 is this Instagram interaction Grimes had with random people about how she had to change the baby name because it broke California laws and because Roman numerals look better.
