"God, this debate is like watching sweaters dry, but if one of the sweaters hated gay people" pretty much sums it up.

The Junior Varsity event of election season happened last night, as the two vice presidential nominees debated in Virginia. Hillary’s running mate, Virginia senator Tim Kane, and Trump’s running mate, offensive Indiana governor Mike Pence, argued over several topics, from terrorism to Trump, though disappointingly nobody brought up Pence’s notorious anti-LGBT legislation. And though the debate itself may have been less than thrilling, the reactions from LGBT comedians and our allies on Twitter made the mostly-genial event a bit more entertaining. Here are our favorites:

When everybody weighed in about the candidates.

Just got offstage. I'm Ready to watch the highlights from Your neighbor's nice Dad v Voldemort. #VPDebate — Erin Foley (@erinfoleycomic) October 5, 2016

tim kaine looks like buddy the elf's dad. mike pence looks like the grinch's dad #VPDebate — ballin' ass furlin (@thefurlinator) October 5, 2016

Kaine is getting Dom top on Pence. #VPDebate — Eliel Cruz (@elielcruz) October 5, 2016

The only person who would benefit from Mike Pence's vice presidency is Dick "formerly the worst" Cheney #VPDebate — Kate Willett (@katewillett) October 5, 2016

Is it weird that I want to dress Mike Pence in drag? I imagine he'd look like Dame Judi Dench. #VPDebate — Adam Sank (@AdamSank) October 5, 2016

I think Mike Pence is a White Walker.#VPDebate — Amanda Kerri (@eternalkerri) October 5, 2016

OMG FFS almost every single thing that Pence has said are blatant lies. #VPDebate — Matty Randall (@mattRan) October 5, 2016

Mike Pence is an attractive, but old Republican. He's a silver Fox News. #VPDebate — leah knauer (@LeahKnauer) October 5, 2016

Did that dude from Mad Men run for Vice President? #pencendejo #VPDebate — Derrick Lemos (@DerrickLemos) October 5, 2016

Speak up it's hard for me to hear your bigotry @GovPenceIN #VPDebate — Eliel Cruz (@elielcruz) October 5, 2016

This is NOT my favorite version of "What Is This Feeling?" #VPDebate — Robbie Rozelle (@divarobbie) October 5, 2016

.@GovPenceIN Hate your policies but VERY into you physically — billy eichner (@billyeichner) October 4, 2016

When nobody grilled Pence on his LGBT stance.

How little LGBT people matter in 2016: not 1 question re: turn away gays bill #VPDebate — Neal Broverman (@nbroverman) October 5, 2016

There is a big rainbow elephant in the room during this discussion on social issues. #VPDebate — Raymond Braun (@raymondbraun) October 5, 2016

Mike Pence must've had a hell of a time finding a straight male makeup artist to put on his lipstick. #VPDebate — Michael Hartney (@MichaelHartney) October 5, 2016

Pence said a society is judged by how it treats its most vulnerable. This is how he treats LGBTQ people. #VPDebate https://t.co/y1L06bK7pI — Raymond Braun (@raymondbraun) October 5, 2016

Please note @mike_pence has a long, long history of anti-LGBT rhetoric. He is dangerous. #VPDebate — Pandora Boxx (@ThePandoraBoxx) October 5, 2016

Ludicrous for #pence to declare Indiana most pro-adoption state when he's fought to deny rights to #LGBT ppl including adoption #vpdebate — Michael Bellavia (@mrbellavia) October 5, 2016

Disappointed & upset that LGBTQ issues weren't discussed in #VPDebate. Lost opportunity. Learn about Pence's record.https://t.co/y1L06bK7pI — Raymond Braun (@raymondbraun) October 5, 2016

We CANNOT let politicians flagrantly vilify and discriminate against us without holding them accountable and speaking up. #VPDebate — Raymond Braun (@raymondbraun) October 5, 2016

anyway mike pence is an actual monster who believes gay people should be converted and women shouldnt be able to make their own decisions so — Matt Bellassai (@MattBellassai) October 5, 2016

Pence says Hillary's the more insulting candidate. Two minutes in and he's already subjecting the truth to conversion therapy. #VPDebate — Louis Virtel (@louisvirtel) October 5, 2016

Pence is Trump's plan B, but he doesn't believe in Plan B. America you have to carry Trump full term even if he dies inside you. #VPDebate — Amanda Deibert (@amandadeibert) October 5, 2016

And when they got talking about women’s issues.

It was real cool watching two men who are both devout in religions that have demonized me talk about what's best for me. #VPdebate — Die-ley Silverbat (@ryesilverman) October 5, 2016

This #VPDebate spending the majority of the time on terrorism and no time on women's issues is fear-mongering and wrong. — Erika Heidewald (@erikaheidewald) October 5, 2016

"Why don't you trust Women to make these decisions for themselves?" GOD. DAMN. TIMOTHY. YES. #VPDebate pic.twitter.com/tKyCbscomI — Derrick Lemos (@DerrickLemos) October 5, 2016

Pence: "Clinton campaign has been an avalanche of insults." So clearly Pence has never been on Twitter at 3am. #VPDebate — Amanda Deibert (@amandadeibert) October 5, 2016

Trump: "I'll wall off the borders!"

Pence: "And I'll wall off the vaginas!"#VPDebate — Cameron Esposito (@cameronesposito) October 5, 2016

GOD DAMMIT TIMOTHY. WHO DIDN'T PREP YOU ON PENCE'S RECORD? Abortion restriction was right fucking there. #VPDebate — Derrick Lemos (@DerrickLemos) October 5, 2016

This all male reboot of the debate is ruining my childhood. #VPDebate — Lauren Brown (@LaurenBrownMD) October 5, 2016

When they talked about police shootings.

Pence soft spoken, isn't foaming at the mouth. His experience as a white person knowing other white people, cops is all he needs #VPDebate — Eliel Cruz (@elielcruz) October 5, 2016

"Law and Order" is a fun way of saying "make black people scared to walk around" #VPDebate — Grindr (@Grindr) October 5, 2016

"I'm a mild-mannered Hoosier with no soundbites, just a deeply held belief that only straight white men deserve rights." - Pence #VPDebate — Erika Heidewald (@erikaheidewald) October 5, 2016

Mike Pence just laughed at the idea that everyone has implicit bias. Maybe because his bias is explicit? #VPDebate — Erika Heidewald (@erikaheidewald) October 5, 2016

White voters are spooging all over their white sheets right now after Pence's answer about police killings. #VPDebate — Adam Sank (@AdamSank) October 5, 2016

Police keep ACCIDENTALLY killing black men, the way law ACCIDENTALLY made it illegal for them to vote for 200 years. #VPDebate — Grindr (@Grindr) October 5, 2016

When Pence awkwardly bragged about how much he prays.

Pence's brag about "getting on his knees every day" will be so satisfying in gif form once his inevitable sex scandal comes out #vpdebate — Kate Willett (@katewillett) October 5, 2016

"I tried to spend a little time on my knees every day." – @mike_pence



Same, Mike. #VPDebate pic.twitter.com/tzIBCScP6n — Cryin' Boolihan (@RyanHoulihan) October 5, 2016

Oh, no. Gay twitter is going to have a field day with Pence's "i try to spend a little time on my knees everyday." #VPDebate — Eliel Cruz (@elielcruz) October 5, 2016

When they argued about Trump. (Also we do pretty much anything Ryan Houlihan tells us to)

Put this in your #VPDebate tweet round up, I'm begging you. pic.twitter.com/NP43oHklwi — Cryin' Boolihan (@RyanHoulihan) October 5, 2016

"He's not a polished politician" was literally an answer Pence gave to defend Trumps words. #VPDebate — Jesse Tyler Ferguson (@jessetyler) October 5, 2016

Eric Trump: Clinton has been a politician longer than I was released from the Nazi cloning lab in Brazil.#VPDebate @CNN — Amanda Kerri (@eternalkerri) October 5, 2016

Pence tried to come for Clinton foundation. Fair. But there are far more receipts for Trump's foundation. Dumb move. #VPDebate — Eliel Cruz (@elielcruz) October 5, 2016

Dear Pence: Kaine's listing all of Trump's insults is not the same thing as insulting Trump. Signed, Logic. #VPDebate — Adam Sank (@AdamSank) October 5, 2016

When is Mike Pence gonna throw his drink at Tim Kaine for mentioning things his sugar daddy has said? #VPDebate pic.twitter.com/F6AE1qhYY0 — BATthew D'AmBoOoOsio (@drmattdambrosio) October 5, 2016

When they talked about foreign policy.

Pence says security is the most important thing, because this is fucking 1984 and Big Brother needs you to be scared. #VPDebate — Erika Heidewald (@erikaheidewald) October 5, 2016

Pence just said Trump never said Putin was a great leader.Boy is he gonna be embarrassed when he reads anything Trump's ever said #VPDebate — Amanda Deibert (@amandadeibert) October 5, 2016

Elaine -- enough with the foreign policy questions. There's a lot of shit happening in our country, too. #VPDebate — Adam Sank (@AdamSank) October 5, 2016

Pence "Trump has created tens of thousands of jobs" *whispers into his arm "in China" #VPDebate — Amanda Deibert (@amandadeibert) October 5, 2016

God when these creepy white guys talk about "cyber" it just creeps me out.

I mean c'mon man. I wanna masturbate to porn later.#VPDebate — Amanda Kerri (@eternalkerri) October 5, 2016

When they talked about taxes:

"Lower taxes" sounds good if you don't understand taxes or economies or the middle class or that it's a lie to begin with. #VPDebate — Cryin' Boolihan (@RyanHoulihan) October 5, 2016

Pence: You can roll out numbers, *eye roll* I GUESS. #VPDebate



What. A. Butthole. — Derrick Lemos (@DerrickLemos) October 5, 2016

Pence "Trump used the tax law just the way he was supposed to use it." GOOD NEWS NO ONE IS SUPPOSED TO EVER PAY TAXES.EFF AMERICA #VPDebate — Amanda Deibert (@amandadeibert) October 5, 2016

How is Trump going to lower taxes when he doesn't pay them to begin with? #VPDebate — Grindr (@Grindr) October 5, 2016

When Pence said “whipped out that Mexican thing again” and we were all horrified/confused/turned on....

I gotta whip out my #mexicanthing.



I got a quiz in the morning.#VPDebate pic.twitter.com/KeLOcsbFW3 — Amanda Kerri (@eternalkerri) October 5, 2016

"You just whipped out that Mexican thing again." - Mike Pence.



PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.#VPDebate — JoeMyGod (@JoeMyGod) October 5, 2016

Whipping out that Mexican thing....



<opening Scruff>#VPDebate — JoeMyGod (@JoeMyGod) October 5, 2016

If Donald Trump gets to deport 16 million people, I want you to think how much hotness would be lost from your @Grindr screen. #VPDebate — Grindr (@Grindr) October 5, 2016

"You whipped out that Mexican thing again." - Mike Pence #VPDebate pic.twitter.com/OExEqeM2qe — Cryin' Boolihan (@RyanHoulihan) October 5, 2016

When we tried to imagine the reactions everyone is going to have tomorrow.

Trump: Hey.



Hey.



Why didn't you stand up for me?



Pence: new phone who dis?#VPDebate — Derrick Lemos (@DerrickLemos) October 5, 2016

What is this "Mike Pence won" narrative already forming? That was a disaster all around. #VPDebate — Cryin' Boolihan (@RyanHoulihan) October 5, 2016

Media: Pence won.



Pence: No I didn't.#VPDebate — Amanda Kerri (@eternalkerri) October 5, 2016

Come 2017, the GOP will treat Donald Trump's campaign like season five of Community #gasleakcampaign #VPDebate — Danielle Radford (@danielleradford) October 5, 2016

When we realized how little this whole endeavor accomplished.

Pence is dodging questions better than I did when I'd come home drunk from a party in high school. #VPDebate — leah knauer (@LeahKnauer) October 5, 2016

It's easy to win a debate when you aren't bound to facts, can rewrite history, and blame everything on @HillaryClinton. #VPDebate — Kiffer Card (@kiffergcard) October 5, 2016

That was a total pig-fuck. I don't either guy can claim victory, and I don't think either got a single new voter on their side. #VPDebate — Adam Sank (@AdamSank) October 5, 2016

I've never been so bored and I listen to NPR. #VPDebate — Robbie Rozelle (@divarobbie) October 5, 2016

God, this debate is like watching sweaters dry, but if one of the sweaters hated gay people. #VPDebate — Derrick Lemos (@DerrickLemos) October 5, 2016

90 mins has passed why isn't this finished it is past these dads bedtimes #VPDebate — Eliel Cruz (@elielcruz) October 5, 2016

I feel like if they were standing at podiums something good would have happened by now. #VPDebate — Grindr (@Grindr) October 5, 2016

I'm walking away. I've already seen this episode of 2 white dudes arguing about what's best for everyone. #VPDebate — Solomon Georgio (@solomongeorgio) October 5, 2016

When Robbie Rozelle reminded us of the biggest takeaway.
