Tuesday night's presidential debate saw the incumbent President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden go head to head in what made for entertaining and, at some points, painful viewing.
While there were many memorable things said during the debate, one of the most memorable and tweeted-about was the moment in which an exasperated Biden tells Trump, "will you shut up, man" in a bid to stop his constant interruptions. He then referred to Trump's behavior as "so unpresidential".
Relive the top moments from the presidential debate:

Needless to say, the line inspired a number of tweets from amused viewers, with one writing: "Honestly, 'Will you shut up, man?' is going down in presidential debate history along with Nixon's beard. Iconic."

There's no denying it was an iconic line. And Biden's campaign is now taking full advantage of it by selling t-shirts with the White House hopeful's new phrase and a picture of Trump printed on it.
The unisex t-shirts are currently available to buy from the Biden Victory Fund’s online site and are selling for between $30 to $33. The money made from each purchase will go to the Biden Victory Fund.
Per The Hill, it had been listed online before the debate had even ended.
In any case, the "will you shut up, man" line certainly wasn't the only highlight of the evening.
These are some of Biden's other memorable lines:
“You are the worst president that America has ever had.”
“The fact is that everything he’s saying so far is simply a lie. I’m not here to call out his lies. Everybody knows he a liar.”
“It’s hard to get any word in with this clown – excuse me, this person.”
“President Trump wouldn’t know a suburb unless he took a wrong turn.”
“That was really a productive segment, wasn’t it? Keep yappin’, man.”
