It's hard to think of anything that Twitter, and its most dedicated users, were more excited for in 2016 than the release of Frank Ocean's third studio album, Blond. Within an hour of its release on Saturday night, #Blonde was trending—the album was originally entitled "Blonde" on Apple Music—and word spread like wildfire. To say that the site has lost its mind is a pat understatement. Here are some of the best reactions to the new Frank.

This feels like when a fast food restaurant takes too long making your food so they hook you up with something extra #BLONDE
