Following the news that Kate Middleton—excuse us, the Duchess of Cambridge—gave birth to a baby boy, everyone took to Twitter to praise Kate's lady business, poke fun at Kanye's assumed jealousy and sell toilet paper. Here, a roundup of our favorite tweets.
If you just DGAF about Prince William and Kate Middleton's progeny, be sure to follow the Washington Post's instructions on how to hide #RoyalBaby news from your Twitter timeline.
I hope that one day the royal baby and Blue Ivy will rap together about how rich they are.
