Tonight's debate was exactly what we expected. More of Trump losing his cool and saying "wrong", more of Hillary's pantsuit poise, and more winning tweets. If we're being honest, we actually spent our time searching for quips on Twitter rather than actually watching the debate. So in case you don't have the time to read through the millions of social media outbursts, here's the best of debate night.

Some Mortal Kombat encouragement and Trump's horrifying "Fatality".

The alien that is Trump needs to learn how the human reproductive cycle works.

Just one of Hillary's many under-appreciated burns.

So much talk about guns... But the actual amendments under attack.

The Second Amendment is not under attack. The 1st, 8th, 14th and 19th on the other hand....#debate #debatenight

Pretty much everything Bill Maher said.

Trump talking about creating millions of new jobs - Billy Bush at home saying, "Well you lost me mine!"

Oh for fuck sake, if Trump was any more of a pussy he'd have to grab himself. #Debatenight
