Oh god. Remember #TheDress? 4.4 million tweets were sent out about it over 2 days. Brains are still broken. 

And finally – your most tweeted emojis. Crying/laughing guy makes sense, but what on earth are we using those Stars for? Quite a boring top 10 tbh ‘Straya – we can do better. More Eggplant is expected next year, guys.
