Well, he asked for it! 'Too soon' comments from Jason Biggs' followers flooded his comment box after he posted jokes about the MH17 crash on Twitter today.

Biggs, a 36-year-old comedian, shared insensitive thoughts about the crash that killed 298 people.

"Anyone wanna buy my Malaysian Airlines frequently flier miles?," Biggs said in one tweet.

"In all seriousness, tho- HOW DO YOU MISTAKENLY SHOOT DOWN A COMMERCIAL PLANE?! Ugh," said another.

After receiving comments on the jokes he tweeted, he countered that it was just a joke which should not be taken seriously.

However, many of his followers apparently did not find any humor in them. Rather, they saw it as an uncalled-for tweet since it was about a tragic and horrible accident that took away people's lives.

Biggs lashed back at some of his followers saying they should not even be on his twitter page if they can't get a joke.

He did, however, tweet that this is a sad day for the families of the victims and that Malaysia Airlines is a great airline.

He also expressed that his being projected as someone who does not have any empathy for the victims of the said flight is ridiculous. He tweeted again that people are just trying to find something to get angry about and they should channel their issues on other things.

On a lighter note, other celebrities shared their condolences on different social networking sites.

Khloe Kardashian wrote that her prayers are with the passengers of MH17 and wished them to rest in peace. Her sister Kourtney also tweeted that she is praying for the families and friends of those in the plane crash.

Nicki Minaj likewise tweeted that her heart goes out to the victims.
