Thanks to the sea of news we call the internet, the Oscars have grown a little stale. There are so many forecasts and analyses heading in, that by the time the live broadcast rolls around, surprises are few and far between (save, of course, for last year's epic flub — an unprecedented mixup that sent Twitter into overdrive).

But the internet has also blessed us with the gift of live tweets, making the Academy Awards less about the winners and losers and more about cultural solidarity. Tuning in has become group viewing, and you can gripe, joke, and throw up your hands in praise alongside millions of your peers without even having to leave your house. That makes for a long list of clever, hilarious, and yes, sometimes cringey, tweets. See the 15 best below.
