I swear, I didn’t want to publish this one but the devil inside me kept saying, “It’s OK, go for it! You are not an angel anyway.” Everyone is writing about love, friendship, mountain, sea, dog and I am the only person spreading negativity.
By the way, what people do for contest posts, I do the same for every single post after submitting them to indivine. The bottom line is: I am going to lose some more visitors now 
.
About Debajyoti
I wish I had so much creativity! This was bang on… I never vote for anyone who says ‘I voted for you, please vote for me’. It’s really a put off! I comment only when I like something.
And well, it’s easier to get votes from your non-blogger friends in contests like these
i know, it’s actually unnecessary considering MOST OF US anyway read those who comment on our blogs
there is nothing creative about these cartoons. anyone can create them on some of those sites.
i know, you get more votes from non-blogger friends in these contests
thanks for the comment. and please add e-mail subscription option on your blog. I was searching for it the other day.
I have added email subscription now. Not sure how it works though..haha! I’m the types who uses the age old blogroll and refuse to give it up
that’s cool! thank you, will be able to subscribe to your blog now
.
I can see you’ve lost visitors already! Time to do some damage control, Deb. Now write a loving post for all who must have got offended
yup, damage control. but the problem is everyone decides to skip my post the moment i write a long one
What can I say Sir …. I am your fan now !!!
and as i said earlier, your comments put a smile on my face
.
As usual, you hit the nail on the head, or rather the hammer on the gong
BTW, I am so inspired by you that I ventured into the comic strip genre with this post –
Hair and there
Before you make a new post out of this, I want to clarify that my intention here is not self-promotion through a popular, mass-appeal garnering blog, but to pay my humble tribute to your inspirational creativity. (In other words, I expect your vote for this post ASAP
)
i almost had tears in my eyes while reading your comment
. a popular blog, humble tribute, inspirational creativity? will continue to comment and vote for all your posts even if you stop visiting my blog 
.
btw, i did read that post and voted as well. if not, my apologies. will visit your blog ASAP. many thanks for this wonderful comment. it’s ok if i don’t get any more comment on this post now
Chose to read this before going to bed and Thanks buddy, it put a huge grin on my face! My My! You are too good! ha ha
hahaha, thanks a lot! yes, i am too good
This post has made my day. I was just amused by the way you represented the facts of competition. All the best and thanks for sharing . I was just smiling for few minutes after reading this.
thank you so much for this lovely comment! i usually write self-deprecatory humor but was getting bored so decided to take a dig at others. thanks again for the comment
You are an angel anyway
) , I shall never get tired of reading this blog!
You can churn out a comic strip out of anything!!
And no matter how much you go on nailing the fellow petty bloggers (like me, for instance
Now since we are done with praises anyway, let’s get back to voting!
and you can write nice comments, even on a nothing post
many thanks for the comment and don’t forget to vote
Ahhhhhh…….Yes, my dose of refreshment has arrived. And you brought it at precisely the correct time.
I think the last pic nailed it, bang on target. I loved the guy with the gun, that’s precisely what’s happening.
You know, I learnt a lot about contests and my social network in this last one week since my submission. I don’t know whether it can be validated or not but I found that my blogger friends really helped me out (of course, that includes you
). Also, it brought to light the social network and what they do on these networks. I realized that people have absolutely no clue what a social network is and it is mostly used for egoistic purposes and the amount of attention which an individual is able to draw is directly proportional to the gender of a person.
P.S. I must admit, I was actually, literally rolling on the couch laughing to this one because I could relate to the experiences you’ve described here. Sad, but true.
Long live dark comedy
Regards
Jay
My Newest Blog Post
hahaha, these cartoons are nothing but a little exaggeration of reality
. the fact is, bloggers actually help each other out otherwise our blogs wouldn’t have survived.
i don’t use social networking. for me this blog is my only connection with virtual world.
i do all this everyday
. i vote blindly for each and everything. and i don’t do this for charity 
.
many thanks for the comment and i am going to read your post later tonight because that’s a subject which i would like to read peacefully
ROFL LMAO
superb one 
last one was amazing cant stop laughing! First stop here 
too good loved it 
haha thank you so much!!! because of the kind of posts i publish, i keep losing my regular visitors. so, i need new visitors all the time
.
Oh Yeah Deb! that justifies your previous post
Ahem ahem Experience speaks 
LOL…
Satirical post are most difficult according to me, You seem to be best at it loving your blog.
Keep writing, Keep mocking us
wow, you read my previous post as well!! thank you so much!

I guess not!

Your dream run continues.
oh, if there is anyone i want to see winning this contest, it has to be you! thanks for the comment but from now on you have to read my regular long posts
Thank you for your blessings. Coco Bongo Club, here I come!
you are still leading
. let’s see what happens!
I couldn’t stop laughing at this one. Agree, any one can use internet tools available to make comic strips but this satirical yet relevant observation is hard to come by. BTW I did think of entering this contest, but sadly, first of all I didn’t have a love story [My own love story got converted into marriage:( sigh! that's a tragedy I will leave for some other time] and then I knew no body will vote for me. So I dropped the idea.
Well done and I am waiting for the long post!
thank you so much! i publish a cartoon or a long post only if i laugh at it myself
. yes, i am a brilliant cartoonist 
please write that story even if you don’t submit it for any contest. i really want to read something on your blog which i can understand
I seek a clarification here, you are encouraging me or pulling my leg:( Are my post really that incomprehensible!
hahaha, i am not pulling your leg. i have been trying to comment on your posts but couldn’t come up with anything other than- ‘brilliant post, enjoyed reading it!” so decided not to comment

hahaha, thank you so much
u r a prolific bole toh full too hilarious blogger wid sense
will be one for sure because i am going to increase the frequency of posts
. thanks a lot for the comment 
LOL
I lines I like the most was, Prolific bole to, he comes with the most every 10 mins. I am sure, I can never be prolific by his standards. BTW, you are not spreading negativity, you are lightening the tension. Though, I am not participating in Get Published Contest. Hope all my friends make it and which will make the book very very heavy.
hahaha, thank you so much! even i am not participating primarily because i cannot write anything other than some stupid posts.
because of this contest, i got to read some exceptional stories. really looking forward to this book. it’s going to be awesome!!!
Well, you seem to be competing with yourself now! You have really carved a niche with your blogger satires, keep them coming! On a serious note, I always thought you were a good writer Deb, you should have written something for the contest.
no, i think i am done with this blogger series. i was posting them to drive some traffic, that’s it
.
nah, i am not good enough to write for that contest but i am glad that this contest is happening. there are many deserving writers out there who will get a chance to see their works published.
many thanks for the comment!
WOW!! Found it damn funny! Extremely creative!
Will follow this blog to look at more creative works of yours.
no no, you won’t find any creative work here. i usually write long posts but because i was losing visitors i did these cartoons to get new visitors. and these cartoons can be created on sites like toondoo.com using the tools they provide. thank you so much for reading!
That nice of you to share that website
Guess what? I love reading long posts 
I am book addict and like reading good stuff. So you can expect me here, quite often 
if you continue to visit my blog (which i doubt) then you will get to read a lot of long posts
because i force other bloggers to read whatever i write. thank you so much!!
Hi Debajyoti,
What I can say? Sheer brilliance, once again!
I loved the graphic of you! I guess the moral of the story is don’t expect anything in return!
Thank you.
Thank you so much Hiten! this was just for fun. we will always expect something in return
Hey Deb , that’s a good one ! I have been lately thinking the same thinking, just that nobody’s pointed a gun at me yet
thanks a lot! no one pointed gun at me either, i just exaggerated things as usual
Seriously Funny .. yet a bitter reality but to be honest .. I am really thankful to those 20 people who has voted for my entry as I haven’t did the same for others (as far as I remember) .. opps .. I am gonna lose future votes (If there would be any)
hahaha, no you won’t lose future votes because no one is going to read this post anymore. i am not sure whether i am one of those 20 people who voted for your entry. i think i couldn’t find the link to your entry. many thanks for the comment!!
Hahaha…..you are just an amazing guy,”amazing bole toh?………..someone full of witticism, criticism, fun, & concern too”.
I liked the note below. 
Always listen to your inner soul, because it’s (again) amazing. I don’t think you are losing your visitors anymore, so just chill! 
Loved your expressions in this post, and your DP in Indiblogger- it’s funny!
your comments always put a smile on my face!! thank you so much for this lovely comment
. i keep experimenting with my pictures 
Man, this is awesome . The truth of getting votes and at the final stage begging for votes
. Is that mean our confidence level once when the story was written is getting dimished after getting fewer or no votes ?
And college kids and office goers would definetly be on top list :p owing to the fact of meeting many people all day ….but again will everyone we ask put votes ? so many questions and only the results of HC would answer .
Btw, which site are you using to create these cartoons? hoping to learn your trick
we know that very few would vote for our entries unless we ask for it. so we have no choice, we want to see our works published. it’s applicable for our regular posts as well. not too many people voluntarily read our posts. we make them read
.
our confidence level does go down when we see unfavorable response.
many thanks for the comment and try toondoo.com, this one has many options and it’s the most popular one. if you want to know the site i use, let me know.
I swear I did only one post asking for votes but then nothing after that. I did not even approach my non-blogger friends.
Frankly, I cannot understand the concept of votes for publishing something.
why didn’t you approach your non-blogger friends
?
i know it doesn’t make sense asking bloggers to get votes for their stories. people like me who usually exploit the loopholes can get hundreds of votes after submitting a blank page. by the way, i have voted for your story again yesterday
.
There you go!! You now have my vote for this post !
Jokes apart, good work!!
thank you so much!! hey i read quite a few posts on your blog including the one which you dedicated to your friend. i was at a loss for words and didn’t comment.
do drop by more .. and comment next time
sure, i am a prolific commenter
Freaking awesome
specially the last part and Prolific writer bole to….

thank you so much for this lovely comment
This is superrrr creative! U sure know how to tickle the funny bone! Sometimes when we are anxious about something, it gets the creative best out. I do experience that often. Realized it too while writing http://shaivikafunda.blogspot.in/2013/01/ek-chhoti-si-hate-story.html.
Keep up the good job & all the best…
thanks! will read your post if i haven’t already. by the way, i didn’t take part in that contest.
I get tired of all the cheery, happy “my life is so perfect and blessed and I dont even try!!!” posts in the blogosphere. This was so refreshing. And cute.
Thanks for sharing.
hey, thank you so much for visiting my blog and for this lovely comment!! wasn’t expecting any more comment on this one. thanks again. by the way, i somehow manage to create these cartoons in case you are thinking i have copied it from other sites hahaha
The cartoons are lovely!
You left a comment on another site, and your name caught my eye actually
oh yes, i leave comments everywhere
. many thanks for the kind words!
i like the purple colour you gave to your avatar there
the guy with the gun in hand is making a request using the word ‘please’ ..lol .
yes, we don’t forget to say ‘please.’ thanks a lot for the comment!
Superb. Lovely take on these contests and mutual back scratching. This reminded me of the cartoons I used to read in my child hood days. Long long ago.
thank you so much!! glad that my attempt took you back to your childhood days!!
Amazing stuff! I wonder how I missed your blog the last few days. Great thing about it is the people who you hit at appreciate your post the most.
hahaha, thanks a lot!! i am just one of them
.
Hey awesum stuff…

http://itjusthappenandthen.blogspot.in/2013/02/presenting-leibster-award.html
thank you so much! will go through your post for confirmation
Hi debajyoti….
First came to this post….then saw that this post is number 3 …so went to the previous 2 ones….Man, its really awesome…I liked the girl in the previous one
…I couldn’t stop laughing at this post…Particularly the last one where one is holding a gun and a miniature you holding the man’s leg….BTW the cartoon you looks awesome…Satire at its best!! 
wow, thank you so much for reading all three posts!! it’s comments like this which motivate me to carry on
Your creativity knows no bound!!
no, i am not creative. i write self-deprecatory humor and when i get bored of it, i make fun of people
haha this was epic! Spot on
Such a good sense of humor and a very well-made comic. You’ve a new fan;)
thank you so much for the comment!! glad you liked it
Loved the strip. Never knew you are so talented as a cartoonist. A cartoonist with a wicked sense of humour is an irresistible combination.
no, anyone can create these comic strips on some of the sites which has those applications. i am not talented
. but i like comments. thank you so much 
Haha!
Man! I have been going through IndiVine, thinking maybe I’d go through some awesome stuff and upvote it. But all I find are people preaching! It’s like, they write for being called writers.
Of course, some are different, like yours.
All posts seem to be revolving around how good they are at a particular thing, masters of the universe!
I think I just got too rude. Nobody’s gonna read my blog now.
don’t tell me you posted comments saying, “that’s the worst post i have read in my entire life.”
but there are few good blogs.
On the contrary! You added one to your list of followers! Had a hearty laugh at prolific!
thank you so much! glad you liked this one
. you might get bored if you continue to visit my blog though 
You are so good at it… Each of your blog has a hidden concept or fact, portrayed in a humurous angle. Keep spreading the message and keep entertaining us with your cartoons
I am added in your avid reader list…
thanks a lot for the wonderful comment! such comments motivate us to put more efforts and come up with some decent posts
I think you have been honest in your communication. I had been reading other post to and got a sense of how blogosphere works.
thank you so much for reading my posts!
I know this is a old post of yours..But I am really loving it….Really I am your fan now,please do provide me some tips to be so good…
thank you so much for this wonderful comment! unfortunately, i am not qualified enough to advise anyone. i have thoroughly enjoyed reading your posts on northeast. so, will continue to read your posts as a reader and try to learn few things from you.
