End this blog, and other sundry comments

End this blog, and other sundry comments!

As promised, this post covers the gist of what some of my worthy readers had to say. Enjoy, at my expense (Sob!)

Dear Rajani,

You want my frank opinion? So here it is:

 Your blog sucks. It’s a terrible idea trying (“trying”, being the operative word) to be funny, so DON’T go there.

 And what’s with all the… ”wink, winks”? Are you trying to get fresh with me? For your information, I am straight, and you have the nerve to make a pass at me? 

Fie to you and your blog! Hope it rots in hell and you with it!

And you have tried to make business of it on the sly, is it?

ITC Kitchens of India, is it?

 I will buy NTR, just to spite your face. 

Post this, if you dare.

Dear Reader,

That was the gist of Somi’s email, yes, gist. (Sigh…)

‘Tis the season of giving…Can you be a little kind, yes?

Thank you. (wink, wink!)

Yet another reader, Pradeep Deshpande, writes,

Dear Rajani,

I think you have lost it. Or else why would you be repeating lines in every blog post, like a demented parrot?  I write better.

Cat got your tongue on that one? Tsk, tsk.

 For better ideas, call me…

The next one is from Tushar Ghorpade who writes:

You are a loser, you truly are. I give you another couple of months before this foolish blog closes shop!

Do me and your other pathetic readers (if you indeed have any!)  a favor and close shop NOW.

It’s never too late to do the right thing!

Thank you, Tushar, for your comment. Will actively consider closing this blog! (Sigh!)

 

Positively Speaking…

I’m sorry you’ve received such bad reviews. It’s really nice, you know? I like it, I really do. (Blink, blink!) 

Only… (Blink)

…If you could be a little realistic here; it’s nice though, really, it is… (Huh?)

 It makes a tad too many jokes … (Blink!) you know what I mean? (No, I don’t. That’s why I am blink-blinking anyway!)

And it ends happily, although life is rarely happy (Huh?).

My advice? Write with passion, as if your life depended on it. Like, for instance, if you were face-to-face with Death…? (Gasp!)

Good going, though. Nice try. As they say, practice 10,000 times and you’ll get it right. You’re still in your first hundred, no? You have a lot of time to improve. Keep going, man. You’ve got steam worth 19900 times to get there!

Thanks, Neela for reassuring me. It’s comforting to know that I have so much time to practice my art ere I die!

That’s all for now, folks! As promised four packets of ITC Kitchens of India will be given to the poor! 

Thanks for the thought. And yes, keep it coming!

Until the next, 

Adieus!
