What was the best thing about today's Inauguration ceremony? America's collective Uncle Joe Biden getting misty-eyed at the national anthem? Our President's rousing speech? Beyoncé ripping out her earpiece during the national anthem like the boss queen she is? We say, none of these. Obviously, the greatest thing about the Inauguration was the hilarity that came from the folks on Twitter, providing us with the LOL's we needed to make the event that much better.

Hop over the jump for a few of our favorite tweets from our favorite celebrities and members of the fashion twitterati. —Jihan Forbes

Mickey Boardman: John Boehner rarely gets any love from the left, and Mickey Boardman is happy to offer some? as long as the Speaker of the House sheds a few tears!

Christina Binkley: In one tweet, Ms. Binkley sums up the lure of celebrity style.

Joanna Coles: Joanna Coles was so emotional, she couldn't even type properly. There, there Ms. Coles.

Robin Givhan: The celebrated fashion critic was really curious about the logistics of MObama's wardrobe change. We're pretty sure a gaggle of jolly cartoon woodland creatures delivered the First Lady's belt, just in time for her to take the stage. But that's just our theory.

Lil' Duval: Lil' Duval always cracks us up, but this might have been one of our favorite tweets of the day. Wonder how daunting "meeting the parents" would be for that poor lad!

B.J. Novak: ? Is not speaking from experience.

Eric Wilson: The NY Times writer gets the detes on Malia's coat, a version which us plebes will probably never be able to purchase for ourselves.

Madam Editor: Madam Editor wonders about Michelle Obama's nighttime hair regime. We're positive the First Lady rests her luxurious Dominican-style blowout on silken sheets spun by Jesus' pet silkworms?or something.
