Twitter designed a statistical graphic revealing the top tweeted moments of last night’s State of the Union address. (For the full PDF go here.)

The most tweeted retort? President Obama’s joke about milk.

“We got rid of one rule from 40 years ago that could have forced some dairy farmers to spend $10,000 a year proving that they could contain a spill — because milk was somehow classified as an oil. With a rule like that, I guess it was worth crying over spilled milk,” Obama said.

Twitter averaged over 8,000 tweets per minute between 9:05 p.m. and 10:40 p.m. EST last night and here at Current.com, we summed up the the address with a chronological summary of our favorite tweets of the night starting with, “Anyone who stakes out a seat near the aisle didn’t get enough hugs as a kid,” from @AliciaMenendez.
