A certain Sunny Singh spoke for many by tweeting: 'I hate this regular checking up on people I care about.' Sunil Jaiswani referred to our intelligence agency as a white elephant that will now come up with the line 'Terrorists can target malls and busy places.' Satish Viswanathan added: 'We will have to be content with statements about our resilience and not being cowed down by this.' According to Biswarup Banerjee, 'If you don't hang terrorists even after a judicial verdict, they will continue to attack our institutions and kill people.' u00a0 And a pertinent question from writer Taslima Nasreen: 'Why do the media go to ministers for comments every time there is a blast? Can't they replay their previous comments?'' Just for laughs Reports of comedian Eddie Murphy hosting the 84th Academy Awards in 2012 were greeted with more apprehension than excitement. In Liana K's words: 'Murphy hosting the Oscars is like a vegan at a steak house: How can he have an opinion? He can't remember what a good movie is like.'

And from Biprorshee Das, a warning: 'Tomorrow, you will call Parthiv Patel names when he doesn't score.'
