It's well-known by now how absurd and self-referential the official Sonic the Hedgehog Twitter account can be. But rarely do things get more bizarre and fourth wall-breaking than when Sonic himself and eternal nemesis/frenemy Dr. Eggman (AKA Dr. Robotnik) start answering fan questions, which is exactly what happened today.
From snarky comebacks to inside jokes, we've collected some of the best and funniest tweets from Sonic and Eggman below:
