IB of the Month May 2009 - Category Selection

I got a reject too this morning....Boo hoo sob sob....some mail that said, "Loooserrr, you are not funny enough!" or something like that! Anyways, relenless as I am, I painted my face fullto joker style after that, and have been falling over the same banana peel over and over again, so that people laugh! But It is also not working! Oh, I forgot to tell you, I am on hunger strike too! You listening, Renie!

Anyways, congrats Pankaj, for making it to shortlist! And Roshmi and Saurabh, 'chill guys', we wil rock next time!

Hey Gaurav, thanks for sticking up for me bro! I think you are darn funny and your blog will be approved soon and that goes for everyone else who thinks that their blog is funny :)

yayyyyyyy.....Thanks Anoop....yayyyy...oh wait, let me go and jump on my bed! yipeeeee!!!...(catching my breath)....

But yeah Anoop buddy, you owe me for mental pain (experiencing phsycological trauma at facing rejection)  and physical agony (broken hip bone for falling over banana peel again and again) now!

I got successful entry for the Orginal Humar

My Blog is

yay!

Hi there,

Roshmi - in the words of Axl Rose from November rain - You're not the only one :)

I too had nominated 5 of my posts for the Original humour category and I too received a similar mail saying -

"We are sorry to inform you that your nomination for

IndiBlogger of The Month May 2009, Original Humor could not be accepted.

Most likely, your nomination was not accepted because your entry did not fall under the category of Original Humor. If you have any questions, please ask on the forum and we will help you out."

My blog does comprise of posts on a variety of topics - mostly releated to poems, observations and humor. But the posts that I submitted were related to the humor category.

So I too, like Roshmi, wait for a reply as to why my sense of humor which is often perceived as a sense of tumor (to those who suffer the wrath of it) was rejected? :)

My blog is crashpoint-zeros-brain.

Thanks for taking out the time to sort out our queries.

Hi! It feels 'great' to know... I have company!

BTW... on seeing the mail, I thought it was April 1st... then realized it's well past...!

Anoop's blog says... 'seriously joking'... hope we are not his current 'victims'...

Over to you Anoop

Please help me understand... where is the disconnect.

Humor is vague, runaway stuff that hisses around the fissures and crevices of the mind,

like some sort of loose physic gas.

Humor is a best option.

Jokes, Comic strips, Cartoons culled from other sites.. should not qualify either!

सर्वप्रथम किरन जी को जीत की हार्दिक शुभकामनाएं.......और जहां तक रही बात श्रेणी चुनने की तो मैं हास्य को अपना मत दूंगा....साभार

हमसफ़र यादों का.......

First of all.....I would like to send my Heartiest Congratulations to Kiran.....You are doing a great job.....

Secondly I would like to suggest "Humour" as the category for May Contest....

Regards

हमसफ़र यादों का.......

Congrats Kiran! And like everyone else, humor it ise for me too.

And Chriz, Blogwhoring? Is it what I think it is?

Humour should be orinal, it should make you laugh first and then think as well. PJs, kinky stuff don't qualify to be humour. Cheap sarcasm is not humour. Slap-stick stuff is not humour.
