By now, you have read the think pieces dissecting debate night last night. You can read a couple of my favorite serious articles here and here. I present you a bit of a different perspective in keeping with the 'Just Mindy' vibe. Here are a few of my favorite memes from last night.

Fox News actually tried to get the candidates to play Survivor and write down who they would "vote off the island."

The candidates looked at Dana Perino like she was an insane person. pic.twitter.com/rL5YD4rrdM

They even tried to end the night with a reality show 'vote off the island' moment. That was embarrassing.
Dana Perino: You have 15 seconds to write on a piece of paper which candidate you’d vote off the island.

Ron DeSantis was not having it and shut that down right away.
I will vote for Vivek if he channels that Danny Zuko hair and breaks into song w/the uncensored version of Greased Lightning pic.twitter.com/MEvvX3y59a

Vivek’s hair looks like he’s about to say, “Deadass ONG, capitalism is dank af and imma bout to glow up this country.” pic.twitter.com/ighDcKZNfN

Vivek's massive hair was a treasure trove of good meme content.

Christie literally did the meme with the Donald Duck line 😂😂 pic.twitter.com/ZMxthhNENp

How many times did Chris Christie practice his Donald Duck speech in the mirror this morning? pic.twitter.com/q1dywWKJvD

Christie having a solid moment but ending it with his "Donald Duck" line. pic.twitter.com/sf4wNKQgqn

Chris Christie's newly minted moniker for Donald Trump also drew some attention. Since Trump 'ducked' last night's debate, Christie thought this nickname would be a hit. The jury is still out on that.

Sigh. Mike Pence tries to be funny. The jokes never land.
Tim Scott’s long lost girlfriend spotted in first row. @karol pic.twitter.com/BsufAgO0yR
— Dave Rubin (@RubinReport) September 28, 2023
Of course, there had to be a joke or two about Tim Scott's 'imaginary' girlfriend. By the way, Rubin is kidding in this tweet. That is actually the beloved Karol Markowicz, best selling conservative author. She is very happily married to someone who is not Tim Scott.
Tim Scott was pretty feisty tonight...
— Tim Young (@TimRunsHisMouth) September 28, 2023
I wonder what his totally real girlfriend who absolutely exists and just happens to never be around due to scheduling issues thinks about that.
Has anyone seen Tim Scott's girlfriend?

She doesn't go here, ok!
HALEY: "Do your homework, Tim, because Obama bought those curtains."
— Ryan Struyk (@ryanstruyk) September 28, 2023
SCOTT: "Did you send them back?"
HALEY: "It's the State Department. Did you send them back? You're the one who works in Congress.
SCOTT: "You hung them up."
HALEY: "They were there before I showed up."
Obviously, the debate had to address the serious issues and Tim Scott and Nikki Haley did not disappoint.
"90% of the resources that we send over to Ukraine, it's guaranteed! It's a loan!" pic.twitter.com/fCtFx6obVJ

During the Ukraine discussion, Tim Scott clarified the assistance was a loan. Let's be real.

Honestly, the debate was a mess and devolved into people screaming over one another way too much. The only redeeming factor is the laughs Twitter can bring. I hope you enjoyed these as much as I did. You have to laugh or you will cry.
