@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day Special Edition - Fan Reaction to "We're Done. Amen."

Yesterday afternoon the LOST Twitterverse was met with simultaneous twin tweets from Damon and Carlton:

Damon Lindelof DamonLindelof - We're done. Amen. about 13 hours ago

Carlton Cuse CarltonCuse - We're done. Amen. about 13 hours ago

While the statements are fittingly open to interpretation (done with editing?  done with locking the picture?  done with the entire finale?  done with tweeting?  done with In N Out?), most LOST tweeters interpreted it as the end of an era and tweeted their responses.  Some were eloquent, some were funny, but all were from the heart.  With much love to LOST production and to LOST fandom, here are some of my favorites:
