People Have Lost It Over The "House Of The Dragon" Season Finale — Here Are The Best Jokes

"That finale took years off my life; what the heck are we supposed to do now."

Well, folks, the first season of House of the Dragon has come to a very dramatic end with Episode 10, "The Black Queen." And let's just say, so much sad, wild, and unbelievable shit went down that I'm probably gonna need a lot of time* to process it all.

Rhaenyra wearing a crown

Anyway, as I said, the season finale was W-I-L-D (as expected), and as with every episode this season, fans took to Twitter to share their immediate reactions and jokes. Here are the best and funniest ones:

Note: If you haven't caught up with the show (what are you waiting for?!), keep in mind that there are spoilers ahead!
