It was a case of the groggy morning after the night before on Friday when the UK woke to the news of a Brexit.

After a wild night of results, the Brits shocked the world by voting to leave the European Union, suffering an immediate economic and political hangover that saw PM David Cameron pack his bags and The Bank of England begin to sweat uncomfortably as the pound reeled.

Faced with a worryingly uncertain future though, the internet did what the internet does best as people embraced the Muppets, Sponge Bob and any Anchorman gif going to show exactly how they felt.

For many Brits, the initial news of an EU breakup came as a bit of a shock.

Followed, like most relationship breakups, by disbelief. And a little shameless begging.

And, once the cost of divorce came up, with no small amount of panic.

There were a few dry comments about the state of the British pound.

And its slump to a 31-year low as Brexit hit the stock market like a torpedo.

According to news reports that flooded in, more than £1.5tr was expected to be wiped off world stocks.

So, in Scotland local shop keepers got straight onto possible solutions to save the economy.

Though elsewhere, the financial analysts were less optimistic.

With the Leave campaign securing 52% of the vote, many things were uncertain.

Within hours, British Prime Minister David Cameron had announced his decision to resign.

Though not before a certain other politician had taken a bit of a celebrity bashing.

There was a brief intermission where Lindsay Lohan attempted to get involved.

But ultimately Britain still faced the morning as a less than United Kingdom.

There were some who promoted the possibility of a new London Scotland partnership.

Particularly as some began to wonder what the alternatives might be.

There were some, like Hugh Laurie, who wondered if we could give things another go.

And many others who just decided to embrace exasperation.

Or, indeed, just leave the country altogether.

Apparently Canada seemed to be a good option. As did Nepal.

Some neighbours already seemed to have packed up the kids and left.

Though some of Britain's friends in Europe said they would always be welcome there.

And just when things couldn't possibly get any busier, Donald Trump landed in Scotland.

Though even he couldn't detract from the output of emotion flooding in from Europe.

As people tried to make sense of the new independence they might be facing, disbelief was felt on both sides of the Channel.

Many turned to unusual analogies to try and figure out the situation.

Though some international news organisations seemed to not quite understand what had happened.

And not everyone was quick enough to judge the public mood.

In the north, Scotland had more to work through than most with the entire country having voted to Remain.

Though in the meantime, a few were hoping for some sort of memorabilia from their EU days.

Including coming up with possible new uses for their passports. Place mat anyone?

And in creating a possible historic collection of other ID cards.

By midday, the mood seemed to be slightly less than optimistic.

Though that didn't stop the dry wit from flowing.

And a resolution to find humour in the situation no matter what.

Besides, we'll always have Eurovision.
