Live awards shows prompt sure-fire tweetstorms and usually well into the following day to. There were a lot of Oscar themed tweets to choose from Sunday night and on hangover day. We've curated several great ones for you but we should warn you that none will probably match Jordan Peele's twofer.
I just won an Oscar. WTF?!?

We've curated several great ones for you but we should warn you that none will probably match Jordan Peele's twofer above. Get Out will be hard to top but we'll love to see him try since he's brilliant.
After the jump some Dunkirk ribbing, Sally Kirkland's ballsy proclamation, Post Oscar crashing, and other random funny, thought-provoking or celebrity-laden tweets. So give it a look...
I call my ex Dunkirk because I haven't thought about him since summer

I am very much looking forward to Paul Thomas Anderson winning his first Academy Award for the 480-minute documentary “Maya and Tiffany Hanging Out on Our Patio.”

Hello darling followers. Please tell me that In Memoriam didn’t omit Dorothy Malone who WON A FREAKING OSCAR. I am old and I just missed it right?
— Farran Nehme (@selfstyledsiren) March 5, 2018
I will tell you one thing: Guillermo del Toro would NEVER have left off Dorothy Malone.

Seacrest called Janney’s performance “so moving” and Rancic called Harrelson’s performance “heart-wrenching.” Do these people not see the movies, not know what these words mean, or both?

James Ivory and Jordan Peele winning back to back Oscars is about as good a generational handoff as you can ask for

I heard somebody refer to “The Shape of Water” as “Grinding Nemo” and I’m never going to get over it.

When I produce the Oscars, the Best Actor and Supporting Actor Oscars will be given out at the non-televised gala and every Best Actress and Supporting Actress nominee will give a speech.

This is the first year since '81 that Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress were over the age of 50. That's happened six times in the Actor/Supporting Actor categories in the same period.

"one of"...? It's THE WORST. Okay no, agreed. It's one of the worst because once the conversations die down the ohmygoditsoverforawholeyear sets in and that's rough stuff. The following week is always depression crash time for me. How about you?
