As I brazenly promote a smartphone review, a post on a recently launched line of lipsticks, a suicide note filed under personal care, and a philosophical quotation on Maya which read – ‘Sorry, the page you are looking for doesn’t exist;’ I offer a silent ‘thank you’ to those who enjoyed and liked my posts (even in challenging situations when my blog was down for maintenance). Although, my posts attracting more blind promoters than readers does not clearly suggest how interesting they (which according to me are the best the world has ever seen) actually are, but I refuse to be a pessimist and blog with hysterical gusto amidst incessant bouts of treachery, discrimination, and blatant lies.
Some observations made during various phases of my illusory and confusing blogging journey will help you understand the situation better:
- Comment-comment game – Two or more players required for this game, and at least one player should have a freshly published post. After satisfying the specified prerequisites, player A kicks off the game and plants a comment on player B’s post (ideally a new post but if that post is capable of producing a severe headache then player A can pick an old one; it’s allowed in this game). Player B now follows the link which takes him or her to an undisclosed location where few scattered thoughts just blossomed into a full-grown post (the whole process is modelled on the same principle which governs effective usage of missed calls in our country). Upon completion of this task, player A identifies the next prey and surreptitiously moves on to that blog. There is a time limit of one or two days, and player A has to find as many potential readers as possible within this stipulated time and plant comments on their blogs.
- Eliminating the redundant – Your ardent followers are seen gliding through the vines of indiblogger with a voting machine in one hand and keyboard in another spreading laughter, joy, and merriment; completely renouncing your blog (when they don’t have a new post). Your eyes turn red in anger, you hair spikes up, you clench your fist and grit your teeth; but you achieve nothing other than looking like a cyclone victim.
- Law of relativity – Number of comments on a post is always inversely proportional to its length.
If the above statements resonate with you then, I am afraid, it paints a rather grim picture of your whole blogging venture. Every new post on your blog would trigger panic attacks and heartaches. Multiple instances of nervous breakdowns would eventually turn you into an irate and abusive blogger, and you would end up writing cockamamie posts (like the one which you are reading right now); which was not part of your agenda when you created your blog and lovingly looked at it with a vision to transform the world with your revolutionary thoughts (Look, what you are writing now. Cribbing and crying about people not voting for your posts.).
But don’t get bogged down by the injustice of this cruel world. God helps he who helps himself (girls can change the pronoun, or draw a mustache and wear shabby clothes). Wake up to the cause; it’s time for salvation. Hide your identity behind a new profile picture (you should anyway do away with the current one which looks more like a scanned image from an obituary page [like the one at the bottom of this page]). Now, take a deep breath and chant ‘OM’ three times. Once you have the sense of calmness and tranquillity, slowly start clicking on that promote button (However, try to get a gist of the post from the title. Be careful and dodge posts with contentious titles, otherwise you will have to read the entire post in order to avoid the risk of promoting a serial killer’s sadistic tirade. ). You will notice random clicks on your blog. The whole world will be awakened to the fact that a great blogger has been left unacknowledged hitherto. Seize the opportunity and quickly slip in your post on indivine. As soon as you press the submit button, you will notice a puff of smoke exploding in the air and a gusty wind blowing around you. Don’t be afraid, my friend; stay calm, be seated, and hum under your breath, “DRONA-AAAA…”
Piercing the smoke, sand, storm, and the wind; they will come (in numbers) to promote your post.
Continue to hum when the operation is underway (louder this time) – “DRONA-AAAA….” Tears of joy will wash away all your pain and suffering; Moksha is just a click away…ummm, Moksha as in liberation thingy and not Arjun Rampal’s movie (Incidentally, even that’s a click away if you are a masochist and enjoy watching bizarre movies on youtube).
However, this frenzied exercise can potentially aggravate your carpel tunnel syndrome which manifests every time you are entrusted with an avoidable work (not directly benefiting you). Fair enough, it’s not the end of the world for you. There is one more option which, surprisingly, is the least arduous of them all. So, don’t lose heart and follow the instructions carefully:
Create a blog, write few posts, go straight to a hilltop, and yell, “I write for the joy of writing and don’t care if anyone reads me or not!” and flowers will sprinkle from heaven (the key here is to ensure that there is no living being in the vicinity. Your objective is to convey the message to the right audience and not wake up someone/something from sleep and come back home with a foot impression on your posterior. So, basically you are addressing mountains, skies, trees, and clouds; which should ideally be unresponsive to your blabbering [and that’s exactly the kind of response your blog is going to get in future, so get the feel of it] unless you get carried away while delivering the soliloquy and kick a boulder barefoot). You need to cleanse your mind and detach yourself from all materialistic desires before embarking on this spiritual journey.
Established practitioners of the aforementioned ideology have embellished their ‘about me’ pages with some mandatory information, e.g., ‘born writer’ or ‘insanely creative’ so that we, the plebeians, can unravel the mystery behind their brilliance. But even though their blogs are accessible to every Tom, Dick, and Harry, they insist on only like minded people being allowed to read their posts. But who are these like minded people, and is there any awe-inspiring blog which they read? A close scrutiny would reveal that they don’t read anything. Hmmm, didn’t I say, it’s the most convenient option?
I understand, I have failed to establish anything in this post other than my poor writing skills, but that doesn’t mean I cannot continue this discussion (or whatever you want to call it) in my next post. So, more on voting and other issues that plaguing the country right now, e.g., lack of comments on our blogs. Till then, read what your heart says; read what your brain can comprehend. What? Were you expecting me to be nice?





OM OM OM..click..promote..now waiting for the flowers.
thank you so much Sonia! hey, i guess there are two or three Sonia Anoops on indi. just promoted one Sonia Anoop’s post. will read that post once i get up
Do you type these posts out or do you speak them into a speech to text? You really must charge for giving these tutorials! The tried and tested way of promoting posts, including your own, Deb. You are a true master. Thanks for helping me start my day with laughter.
well, i type faster than i think and that’s the only skill i have
. thanks a lot for reading
ha ha ha, so true. In fact, one of my friends who was a great traveller, got into blogging and soon the likes on FB, Rts etc. overhauled his hobby and made him insane about likes, comments, Rts, followers etc etc. and when he did not get the response back, poor chap quitted the travel world. Then , it took good 3 months to make him realize what he has done, rather enjoying the Travel and sharing the views/info with others he enjoyed more likes. Finally, happy that he is baack now and really bother about commenting or likes to his articles.
that’s really an interesting story! actually we all spend a good amount of time just to find out how many people liked our posts
. thank you so much for reading this post!
getting to see another from you after quite a long gap–and waiting for the next —-which will keep us glued to the last word the way all your posts do —:))
thank you so much!! glad you liked it
Nice one! Did u reach the hilltop stage?
thanks a lot for reading. glad you found it nice
Deb ,
I have nominated you for the “CREATIEV BLOGGER” Award as you well deserve it ! What you write and what you draw is all worth infinite praises.Humour with a strong message and thats what makes facts and nonsense so dear to me !You are one of those few ppl who make me laugh while reading and I find you immensely creative.
Do visit http://mysay.in/2013/03/06/creative-blogger-award/ and accept a small honour from me .
I apologize its ” CREATIVE BLOGGER AWARD”
thank you so much My Say for the award and for all the kind words!! will read your post peacefully after sometime. i love reading those answers
Ever so amusing yet reflective! You just know how to win your fans’ attention.

And did I tell you before you have an amazing writing skill? I guess I did..
Nonetheless, it’s worth repeating.
Thank you so much Soumi! honestly speaking, i need to work on my writing but without basic knowledge of the language, it is little difficult.
wish, i could win at least my readers’ attention
thanks again for this wonderful comment
Debs! Was it you skipping like a billy-goat that I saw at a distance when I was atop the mountain while I was addressing the mountain, sky, trees and clouds? Did you kick a boulder barefoot or something?
Nah! Can’t be! That was a nightmare
Both of us are the sort who cannot look on anything remotely resembling a human being without getting that indescribable yearning to collar him and drag him to your blog
When I saw ‘Genuine readers, ethical promoters..’ I expected it to end as ‘and other such mythical beings’
A vintage Debajyoti post!
i have actually done that a few times (kicking a boulder barefoot) and that’s why i know how it feels
if possible i would drag every single person to read my blog
that definitely is a better title. from next time i am going to discuss the titles with you before publishing my posts.
many thanks for the comment Suresh
It is clear from your comments that both of you were on the hilltop. It was actually an Indiblogger meet, with bloggers jostling each other for mountaintop space from which to shout their dedication to the art of writing. I too was present among the throng of fellow “ethical promoters”….err….bloggers…
And I only read this post because you mentioned Taarzan the Wonder Car in the title. I found absolutely no mention of any car of any sort in the post. I must register my protest against this blatant publicity-mongering and false promise. You should not misguide your readers this way. The least you could have done was slip in an Ayesha Takia reference somewhere here just to connect it to TWC (that’s Taarzan the Wonder Car abbreviated. However, now that I have written the whole thing down, the abbreviation has been rendered useless).
I have picked up a few tips from this post, so it was not a total waste reading it
LOVED IT, DJ! Yet another read where I was left laughing away
if i go to a hilltop, it would only be to find some new visitors who other story vendors are not aware of.
as for the movie title is concerned, i am only following SEO and their keyword thingy. just couldn’t find a suitable place to paste it so i have put it in the title itself.
many thanks for the comment Minnie! now you know why i read your posts yesterday. just to ensure that you continue to comment on my posts.
And I shall be jousting for those visitors with Debs as well
haha exactly. may be next time i will attend an indiblogger meet and distribute pamphlet with my blog information
Ha ha ! Lovely ! ‘scanned image from an obituary page’ – hilarious… You seem to have it all nailed down eh.. Whats with the Tarzan the wonder car in the title ! Had me foxed.
Btw, I have planted the comment in your post
title looked incomplete, so just added something to make it look cool. see the thing is, i am absolutely jobless and have nothing to do the entire day. so, what i do is, i stalk bloggers and see what they do. and then write posts poking fun at them and make them read and comment.
i know you have planted a comment but you don’t have a new post. hence, this comment will be counted once you publish something new
.
thank you so much for the comment. i love comments but today i am also looking for votes. my post is struggling to make it to the homepage. looks like all the serial voters have bidden adieu to this big bad world. so, i will be eternally grateful to you for voting for this post
Deb,
While your fantastic posts are satirical eyeopener for few,I doubt it would create a genuine impact !
relating to the topic … and without decorating sentences ,I’ll share my experiences ! I have seen great writers being promoted and a few horrible bloggers ( as per me) also reaching the top by virtue of votes. I do not have many votes ever … I do not mind not being noticed .. may be my topics and my work both or either of them does not interest people to vote me but I feel astonished when real horrible work is being promoted and being commented on !! I neither have many people commenting on my posts … nor many likes or votes .. but then those few are true admirers ! After all , not everyone can be a deserving blogger like factsandnonsense and uspandey and saru singal and so on …
i know that
. there are bloggers like me who write for an audience. the day i stop getting visitors, i will delete my blog. and to get visitors, i need to make my posts visible, and only votes can do that. i am just being practical. we do so many things to drive traffic like SEO and blah. so why not blind promotion? yes, once i get some genuine readers, i wouldn’t bother about voting and also i wouldn’t bother if a poorly written post goes on top of indivine.
i absolutely love your posts and do read them on a regular basis. thank you so much for writing them
I happened to leave a comment on similar lines on USP ji’s last blog post . I absolutely agree to your observations . But i guess , there is not much we can do about it right , as long as bloggers are attention seekers ? Writers are narcissists . They crave for appreciation . However , a blogger who has been around for a year or so would also have gained that intuitive mind to see through the genuineness of the comment . Am i right ? Atleast its so for me . And thats how , after a couple of years , we stick to a few genuine blogger friends , who played a diligent part in our growth as a writer , ignoring the fake ones .
Satire at its sublime best it was Deb . Quite engaging
Maliny , you bet it ! Experience of even few months says what the comment is all about! But then as we all are actually agreeing here upon.. thats how we would get real followers … like our individual work ! Normally a cartoonist loves a cartoonist’s blog …. ( at least I always have a lust of watching cartoons made all around me , as much as I can )
same ways , you get like minded admirers and readers !! Well, I am not as gr8 as you guys are and neither are my cartoons …. that great .. yet few of you all turn up ..and I thank all my readers through Indiblogger for the same ! Keeps me motivated !
Lol . Just noticed the scribbling on the picture . Cheers !
well, i am more from that back-scratching brigade. even when someone posts a comment for a return visit, the feedback is genuine. although i know there are few who finish reading, commenting within 1 minute. doesn’t matter, i know who they are. because as you have pointed out we can see through the genuineness of the comment. i always look for new visitors and i come across some wonderful people (and also few brilliant writers) all the time.
i observe every single blogger because i write posts on them
and i know you are one of the most genuine readers we have in blogsphere
Lovely. Incisive.
I loved the law of relativity, particularly. Very true.
thank you so much!! glad you liked it
You and your tongue-in-cheek humor is above the realms of mere marketing machines like ….vine…your readers(read me) read you irrespective of the number of times you read or promoted their posts. Wish your words bring that smile every time I type “factsandnon..” in google – as it does always.
hahaha, i wouldn’t miss a post on the blog of someone who creates magic with the camera. i do read all your posts (may be i have missed one or two of late) but as i have absolutely no clue about photography, i cannot come up with a comment.
thank you so much for this wonderful comment
Lovely Story
thank you for appreciating the story
Reading your post, my couldn’t help hopping back and forth between this post and a post USP wrote recently. But can you help it! I always read every post before pressing the promotion button. and as I soon as I do it, by inbox bleeps a message that so-and-so has promoted you post on indivine. Now there is no way the person could have read my post (how short it might be) with in a second. But over a period of time, you come to know your genuine readers and fake promoters.
BTW loved law of relativity.
actually, i have edited this post heavily to ensure that it doesn’t hurt anyone. however, the next part might
. i know who is a genuine reader and who is not. there are people who just vote but are genuine readers and then there are those who neither vote nor comment but they read each and every post. for me, i read bloggers who write well and those who are good people. but everything depends on quality of interaction on blogs and few other things.
many thanks for the comment and i am going to write about reading and commenting on my next post
hahahah!!! I am neither here, nor there. I am in indiblogging, but somehow never generate the likes or the votes. I like to be myself at my blog, which is not necessarily an effective strategy to bring in readers. But that does not mean I too do nt want to drag everything on two feet on my blog, lol!! I am just way too lazy to make the herculean effort needed to do that.
Another hilarious post DJ
for that you need to submit your posts on indivine first
. trust me, many exceptional blogs are there on indi. but then you are lazy
many thanks for the comment
Touche! You are right, I should start submitting my posts again.
exactly! why wouldn’t you use a platform which, according to me, is the best when it comes to promoting our blogs? we do so many things like submitting our blogs to dead blog directories, SEOs and blah then what this poor indiblogger has done
?
Blogging Law of relativity – Number of comments on a post is always inversely proportional to its length. thank you BloggeNSTEIN
but there’s an exception for one sub species
where dis law doesn’t apply no matter how “aaawsome” dey write
yes, i know those species ROFL
! thank you so much for the comment! yes, i am bloggenstein
Hi Deb,
Your post has led me into a thinking mode. Your plain speaking about promotion of posts and comments lays bare our inherent wishes as bloggers. I do want bloggers to say something about the content,readability and other aspects of a post. It alone can benefit the writer.
As you put it,’one does not write for oneself’. I for my part believe in reading the post before i click a button.
What can a blogger do if he/she is ignored in spite of best efforts. Can we put aside the perspiration part of writing?
Lucky you to be attracting genuine readers. Love your slings and arrows!
exactly! i never understand why people write for themselves and then publish their work, and then submit their posts on all blog directories. i don’t want my posts to go unnoticed (irrespective of the quality but that’s subjective) because i spend a lot of time writing them.
in addition to reading such lovely posts, we also get to know so many people because of their blogs. can we connect with people the same way through social networking sites?
and yes, i am fortunate enough to have some wonderful people reading my posts but that happened because i promoted my posts initially and i still continue to do that.
many thanks for your comment! like your posts even your comments put a smile on my face
been there …done that ! but you know over the time you loose the interest in collecting votes … Now days I follow few bloggers I am genuinely interested in … and your blog is among the few I keep track of …
and i am still doing that and i don’t think i will ever lose interest
.
thanks a lot for the comment TTT and it feels great when someone say such nice things about my blog
Deb, the post seems to be an abridged version of a multi-volume saga on bloggers. Its fine as the word goes but I have this feeling of it being kind of mixed up. Or is it the zinfandel in me?
hahaha, don’t know what it is. i actually wrote a 2000-word long post but for various reasons deleted half of it (no one would have read a 2000-word post anyway) and then i got confused and published this one
.
thanks a lot for reading
Wow, as a newbie, I never realized so much social pressure exists in blogging! Everyone wants to be read and liked, after all that’s why we blog, but it looks like many give it more importance than it deserves. Competitive spirit often overpowers honesty. Leads me to wonder yet again how many of my readers really enjoy reading my posts.
As always, your post sprinkles a pinch of salt and makes me smile at the same time.
it does. i sweat profusely to get few visitors after i publish a post
. of course, i employ few tricks to assess my writing by driving genuine readers (and that’s exactly what i blog for). even i wonder how many people actually enjoy my writing but then we know how to read between the lines. many thanks for this lovely comment!
Cool one. After dazzling us with comics, now you are doing the same with words. Every time I think the topic is beaten to death, you come with aces up your sleeve. I am now convinced you have a capacity to write an infinite number of posts on this topic and still have the reader entertained.
wow, thanks a lot TF for such a wonderful comment! it’s great to know that my readers are not bored to death
. the reason why i write on blogging is because i don’t have much knowledge of anything that’s happening around us and also these posts drive maximum traffic
.
btw, i actually tried to read your last post in my mail but then i realized that you have changed the feed settings to ‘summary only’
.
I don’t write for comments but I do check from time to time if I am getting enough of them. I think I am not crazy.
And I have no idea if this voting thingy is important. I have never recieved more than 20 votes for any of my posts. I guess we all crave for attention. The problem starts when you have no idea why.
the problem starts when we don’t admit that
. if someone intentionally avoids my blog then i wouldn’t mind having a dialogue with him or her in person, preferably with a gun in my hand
. vote is not acknowledgement, it’s a tool which should be used to drive genuine readers. and you are lucky to get 20 votes considering your inactive status on indivine
. out of those 20, few voted for you without knowing that you don’t vote back and few who actually read your post. i know which is a blind vote and which is not (even if they don’t comment).
thank you so much for reading this one.
a hit post with two flops film mentioned in it,satire,humor everything in it
thanks a lot Cifashayar!! well, we all act in those flop films
Liked the post till the picture , after that couldn’t connect much.
you mean the first picture? yes, the title is quite interesting
. thanks for reading anyway
I remember one of your previous posts talking about this comment for a comment and a vote for a vote policy …But May I have the privilege to ak one question ..** Whispering ** Does this rule goes for comment moderation also ? He he
..I always moderated your comments re but I am still in search of my comment I posted yesterday…Anyways my Indivine posts never get votes above 15 or 18 and um unable to toil for them..May be I am a lazy bum and that’s the reason I can’t finish off reading the post and commenting on it in 1 minute ..I dunno why I read the post atleast twice to absorb myself and then only I am able to comment on it(call me a moronic specie or something )..Previously I use to comment on the posts and did not use the Indiblogger platform voting system…your post lighted up the bulb ** vote for a vote ** ..then I pulled up my socks but still I forget the undefined rules of the blogger world sometimes ..Thanks a lot for hammering my head ..
I know you are inclined towards stories, write ups and not towards poetry much but what if your blogger buddies write poems too ..OM OM OM ** I hope now their( blogger buddies ) poems can be showered with your blessings ** Am I behaving as a pest now **….Deb ..please please moderate this comment …
eeesh!! what have I done ? such a looong comment….OMG please don’t point the gun on me ..I wanna live ..I wanna write..I wanna blog..
do you think a cheap blogger like me, whose life revolves around comments, would ever moderate them? i searched every corner of my blog now but couldn’t find that missing comment.
see, voters and readers fall under two different categories; however, a voter can be a genuine reader and even a genuine reader can vote blindly at times. most people have this false perception that we are happy just to accumulate votes. those who know how it works and how votes should be used, do make full use of this system. i keep losing visitors because of various reasons but i don’t care because i know i will get new ones. 90% of my readers have found my blog because i have always (shamelessly) promoted my posts.
i know you will think that i am lying but i was planning to read your post tonight because that’s a wonderful topic and i loved all the posts i have read in this month’s BAT edition.
and your long comment is there now
. thank you so much Odyzz for reading
Your funda really works ,Deb. see I chanted * OM * three times and you said you were about to visit my post..:)
..Um happy that you spared me and didn’t shot me dead for such a looong comment..
hahaha, i love long comments. i read them with a smile on my face and a cup of tea in my hand and say, “see, what a great writer i am.”
on a lighter note ~when my friends use to switch over to the self appraisal mode I use to give a dialogue ..Shall I ( with your permission)– ** Apni adaa pe khud hi fidaa** ….
i know because i believe that i am the coolest person on earth
. Why permission? you can even post ‘asdf’ and i will be thankful to you.
Indeed, I hate it when people promote my post without reading it. And they expect me to promote their posts equally blindly. Next in line is when people do not read my post at all and leave a generalistic comment like “Great post. Well written”, even for small posts.
Commenting back is a good way of discovering each other’s blogs, though.
http://www.anucreations.blogspot.in
i am a blind voter and i know how to use votes. and because i promote blindly and accumulate votes, my actual readers find my posts. even you read this post because it was there on the first page of indivine.
thanks for the info about blind voting. i know i shouldn’t be promoting your post
Bravo! You are a quite Blockbuster Hero.
I don’t think that your posts & comments on it have any inversely proportional relationship. In fact, it’s directly proportional,, or even irrespective of that. Your writing skills are good enough to get you a huge number of readers.
Interesting!
Thank you so much!! hope i get some more comments on this one
. glad you enjoyed reading this. and thanks again for reading all my posts
Harsh, Rude…
I’ll get a foot impression
according to your post.
You seemed to be in a bit of a hurry to post this one? I read the first bullet twice… but couldn’t digest the game part clearly…
will make an attempt again with a fresh mind:-)… neways in the first bullet, you might want to make a correction… “Two OR more”
But then… loved the rest of it for the reality & humor!! What’s with Taarzan the wonder car? SEO & Keywords stuff?
thanks a lot! i made the correction
. i always get confused before publishing a post.
haha, the game is interesting and we all play this game at times. some of us post comments just to get return visits. that’s the game
no SEO. i hardly get visitors outside indiblogger. title looked incomplete so just added that movie name
many thanks for reading this
You are turning into a blog-guru gradually.
thank you so much for the comment! i can do anything to get visitors
Deb, looks like the indiblogger thing really got into your head..hehe
..I really really didn’t know that voting helps..do you think I should give it a try? ah!! never mind..if I read the blogs I follow, that itself is enough..:P okay, you like smileys right? I didn’t forget that
more
…I laughed hard reading this.
nah, almost all my readers come from indiblogger, that too because i promote all my posts. i am too lazy to comment on too many blogs. moreover, when someone returns my visit, i feel i am forcing that person to read my posts; instead i use indivine where people find my posts (because of the tricks i employ) and then they voluntarily read them (because i am a great writer
). i need more and more people visiting my blog
.
thanks a lot for reading this post and for all the smileys
Ha, you ARE clever! I’m a newbie and I’m already reading your post! I had a doubt that you were promoting blindly and it got confirmed once you promoted my tamil post
Anyway thanks for the ‘click’ patronage!
)
Jokes apart, I must say that this post is devilishly brilliant! (I DID read it, just in case you are wondering
see, i am a forced reader and i read a blogger only if i like that person (it’s not mandatory that he or she has to read my posts). and in such cases, i even use google translator to read their posts (of course, the translator is not very effective). and when i am blindly promoting posts then how does that matter whether i understand the language or not? no hush-hush for me. many thanks for reading this post and thank you so much for this wonderful comment
Hi DJ.. I did not read this post but read the latest post.. and I don’t think I am that much clever to comment on your posts…
so I am commenting at last of your already savored post.. but I guess being frank is being clever too.. which hides my shyness of mixing up with you all the old bloggers.. btw you have an amazing imagination and very clever sense of humor.. **respect brother**
hey thank you so much Ashish! actually, even i am not that clever and that’s why i try to be frank. that way i can at least hide my dumbness
. thanks again for this wonderful comment!
btw, it’s bit difficult to read your posts because your blog is too colorful
. can you at least change the font? i would love to read some of your posts.
sure!! hahaha… actually u know a lil immature attempt to get myself notice
and i was just waiting for someone to say it out loud..that change the fu@#in font… lol..
will do soon… thanx..
thanks a lot!
Beyond the humour there are a lot of genuine tips to increase readers in the post. I may implement some . But the best tip for a lazy person like me is to think I am writing for the joy and I do not care for followers – all the while surreptitiously posting entries on indivine ;- )))
Thank you so much! best option for a lazy person is to go on a voting spree (that’s exactly what i do
). then people can decide whether they want to read you or not. no issues if they don’t read my post or vote back. i am not going to chase them with a gun
“Upon completion of this task, player A identifies the next prey and surreptitiously moves on to that blog.”

and yes, i find myself, sometime, enjoying bizarre movies on youtube too
A good nice post, and your humor seems to be flowing out from every line. Happy Blogging.
oh yes, even i enjoy bizarre movies on youtube otherwise how would i know the names of such movies
?
thanks again for these encouraging words
.
You are hilarious!
thank you so much! glad you liked this post
