Missed the Vice Presidential Debate? Don’t worry—Twitter has your back. Here are the highlights of last night’s showdown between Joe Biden and Paul Ryan according to some political-savvy (or not) tweeters.

@NotBillWalton: Paul Ryan’s American flag pin on his label is bigger than Joe Biden’s! BIDEN HATES AMERICA!! #TeaPartyTweet

@SoloDovePR: Why ryan drinking all this water? Lying make your mouth dry #lyingryan

@so_rudez: Joe Biden’s laugh is like when you ask your mom if you can borrow some money right before she says no.

@KimJongNumberUN: Iran? You’re worried about their nuclear weapons? Hello? Forgetting someone? #vpdebate #debate

@heroine_tv: Joe Biden makes me really excited to get older. I can’t wait to start saying malarkey and laughing at youngsters

@jamsambee: I’m listening to the debate on the radio so I can’t see anything. Biden’s wearing leather pants, right? Please say yes.

@MensHumor: I don’t think Martha gives a Raddatz what either of these guys are saying. #ZING

@JenKirkman: The part of the debate where two Catholic men are asked about women’s reproductive rights is where I’M the one who’s gonna start laughing.

@halfadams: I hope bidens response is “just look at my teeth, America.”

@NotBillWalton: BREAKING: Paul Ryan just took another sip of water.

@VanityFair: Yo, Jim Lehrer, This Is What Killing It Looks Like: the Martha Raddatz Story

@indecision: But… what about Big Bird? #vpdebate

@GarrettNBCNews: I can’t tell who is winning or losing here but Joe Biden sure seems to be enjoying himself. #NBCPolitics

@DaneCook: Ryan went to his barber and said make my hairline look like the Van Halen symbol. #VPdebate

@PaulBegala: Conservative CW last week: scowling during debate bad. Conservative CW tonight: smiling during debate bad.

@RahielT: Let’s all admit – POTUS Obama could have never been this “aggressive” without a pandemic of fear sweeping white America. #VPDebate

@seanhannity: WHAT are you giggling at? This actually isn’t even funny anymore. I am legitimately concerned Biden is not OK

@jaketapper: Top rising Google searches during the debate 1. biden 2. conflating 3. malarkey 4. who is wining the debate 5. how old is paul ryan

@MMFlint: BREAKING: Post debate results just in… Ryan now at 6% body fat, 94% water.

We recently offered you a Brief History of Presidential Candidates Messing Up.  Today’s we’ve got a round-up of coverage from Thursday night’s debate.

It’s a draw!  Check out the results of this CNN poll from the night – 48 percent say Ryan won, 44 percent say Biden did, and 8 percent were watching the Orioles beat the Yankees.

The country may be divided as to which candidate won the debate, but I think we’re pretty united in saying that moderator Martha Raddatz beat last week’s Jim Lehrer.  At least, the New York Times is.

Cutting defense by a trillion dollars doesn’t sound right to you either?!  Check out Politico’s fact check to see what statements may have been fudged lduring the contest.

If you didn’t notice, Biden laughed last night.  A LOT.  The WaPo breaks down what that performance meant for Ryan.  LOL.

Thank you, Vice President Biden, for making #malarkey a thing.

Remember, next Tuesday at 9 pm is the next debate between President Obama and Governor Romney.  It’s town hall style with questions on both foreign and domestic policy. Will that one be as exciting as this one?

As the weekend rolls in, you don’t want to be without your football Snuggie and and good reads for halftime. Here are four articles to get you started.

1. The little cube that changed the world – CNN

Erno Rubik never dreamed that small cube he created as teaching aid for his design students would turn out to be the most popular toy ever made.

The puzzle, which started out as chunks of wood and rubber bands, has sold nearly 350 million units over the past 40 years. Check out CNN’s interview with Mr. Rubik, where he admits that he is not, in fact, good at solving the Rubik’s Cube.

2. Weird & Wild: Rare Maned Lionesses Explained? – National Geographic

Did you know that some lionesses have manes? We didn’t, either. In Botswana, some female lions sport the luscious hairdo of their male counterparts.

While this phenomenon may be due to embryo disruption, the definite cause is still unknown. Luke Hunter with the Panthera conservation group has all the details.

3. Books as Muses – The New Yorker

Books aren’t just for reading. Many artists use them for creative inspiration, or even as the centerpieces of their compositions. In this photo gallery, artists explain how books haven given life and meaning to their work. Warning: Photos may cause excessive salivating for avid book-lovers.

4. A Home at the End of Google Earth – Vanity Fair

Let’s face it—until now, Google Earth was only good for getting a bird’s-eye view of your neighborhood and playing I Spy with your friends.

Saroo Munshi Khan, an India native who was separated from his family at the age of 5, used the detailed map tool to trace his family using only distant memories. The entire process took him three years, and required a complex math problem to determine a search perimeter. How’s that for putting us to shame?
