Shahbaz Taseer's tweet spree will turn your bad day around in an instant

Shahbaz Taseer, who was freed earlier this month after almost five years in captivity, took his 14,000 followers by surprise on Tuesday when he decided to conduct a light-hearted Q&A session using the hashtag #AskST.

Taseer took his followers' questions in stride, often giving witty answers to some rather serious, and sometimes insensitive, questions about his time in captivity. We take a look at some of the best answers given by the son of slain former Punjab Governor Salmaan Taseer.
