Twitter users flooded the social media site with their quickly Photoshopped jokes, inserting other 2016 films like "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" and Beyonce's "Lemonade" as the real Best Picture winners. Others took the opportunity to imagine the envelope declaring their loyalty to snubbed favorites (Amy Adams should have nabbed a nomination for "Arrival") or that certain non-movie events went the other way, too (we're looking at you, current POTUS and the most recent Super Bowl champs).

Perhaps the best meme came courtesy of comedian Abbi Crutchfield, who saw the real truth behind last night's blunder.

Whatever the true reason for such an awkward awards show fail (accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers has promised to investigate how the wrong envelope ended up in Beatty and Dunaway's hands), it's always comforting to know that social media will deliver on the laughs.
