Sometimes the best way to digest some bad news is by utilizing gallows humor. That's just what some intrepid White Sox fans and members of the local sports media did last night when news broke that last night's White Sox-Blue Jays game would be Ozzie Guillen's last. Guillen's also a prolific user of Twitter and it's hard to keep up with his updates in one language, let alone two.

It was inevitable the hashtag #futureozzietweet began trending last night during the game. Some of the tweets were inspired but the trend was nowhere near last month's "#FutureNextThemes" trending topic. We've collected the best ones for you.

Here's one from WSCR-AM producer and host Jason Goff that expresses Guillen's apparent relief at his situation.
