Osama outrates royal wedding

William and Kate must be one pissed off royal couple, considering their wedding of the decade faded from our collective memory in less than 48 hours. Imagine putting on a massive show, like they did, only to be upstaged by a dead man in an unkempt beard.

Osama bin Laden continued to clog Twitter timelines today. Someone called Lerato Sekgampu made light of the terrorist's alleged burial at sea. If it's true, he tweeted, 'guess who is going to be blamed for the next tsunami?' Some folk offered to buy pints of beer for the Navy Seal responsible for firing that fatal bullet. Also trending was the now infamous town of Abbottabad. In a certain Arvind L's opinion, 'it was also known as Abortabad, with so many failed missions before Osama was actually found there.'

Ram Gopal Varma took time out from working on a few hundred awful movie ideas to comment on Dawood Ibrahim. 'After hearing about where Osama was all these years,' he typed in the grammatically challenged way he has, 'I won't be surprised if Dawood is living in a bungalow in Bandra, among Shah Rukh Khan's neighbours.' Sourav Ganguly's decision to join the Pune Warriors for IPL 4, replacing Ashish Nehra, got them both attention.

Considering the latter's perennial health issues, a certain Aniruddha Ghosal wanted to know if the cricketer still qualified for Mediclaim. Lastly, for reasons known only to them, a surprisingly large number of tweeple decided to discuss what turned them on. For some, it was (rather worryingly) 'girls with real hair'; for others, men who 'smelled good'.

And then there was Colm Ahern, for whom nipples were essential. Because, in his words, 'without them, breasts would be pointless.' I don't know who he is, sadly, but I'm guessing he's still single.
