Even the best of us have suffered the quarrelsome end of a romantic relationship. Hearts are fragile things and, on occasion, they’re smashed to bits. So what can you do with a broken heart, cynical outlook, and damaged spirit? Make light of it. After all, laughter is the best medicine.

Our #WorstBreakup hashtag contest had some really great submissions. It was nice to see everyone on Twitter celebrating heartache the day after celebrating love. Here are some of our favorite submissions:

From @CaptainSemantic:

@CaptainSemantic - #WorstBreakUp

From @AsktheDM:

From @lucaschirps:

And, of course, the winner, with the most heart wrenching (albeit hilarious) breakup story was @emmieodea:

@emmieodea - #WorstBreakUp
