Deeps Comments :Statistics and Surveys

Statistics reports are a great way to establish your point. The more references to statistic , more the statement looks authentic. But most of the people just getaway with a made up statistic. You can also notice that the survey reports will be always in favour of the person presenting it or the company sponsoring it.


Here are a few ways to make your statistic look credible

1. Domino reference method : Refer to something that refers to something that refers to ...etc..


2. Claim that the survey was conducted by some big shot company


3. Add decimal points. For eg: "Almost 83.45% of the people will like this point."


4. Cross reference: A refers to B. B refers to A.


5. But the most important of all is speak with so much confidence as if it was nothing but the truth.

I am sure that almost 98% of you will agree to the above conclusion.

Deeps' Comments on Global Economy

Of course this is just a cartoon. Many of us might be already hit badly by the recession. But I still wonder why nobody could predict this economic downfall.

Well the person who has inspired me most to do the character Deeps was Dheep Joy Mampilly , one of my School time friends. Dheep had an amazing vocabulary. In his own words "I have a knack of writing relatively abstruse English - and a bit verbose too - as you would know; indeed, I know that this is not appreciated by many, but my object is to use language in a way that makes it humorous because and not in spite of its difficulty. " We used to have Shakespeare classes. In the beginning everyone started reffering to Dheep's english as 'Shakespearean'. By the end evryone was reffering to Shakespeare as 'Dheepian'.



Just to give you a sample of his language I requested him to write dialogues for the same cartoon in his style. It was done during the new year time so it is a little bit old but still here it is.

Deeps' comments on Generation Gap

Gyaan : The celebrity on the poster is Aamir Khan. This was the hair style he had for his flick Ghajini. Aamir appeared in this get up for many ads, during the shooting of the film. Many college students copied the same style, leading many of the leading college's to issue notices to ban the hairstyle in campus.

The character Deeps is based on few of my friends whose intellect level were a little higher than the most of us. Dheep Joy Mampilly and Deepak Subramaniam topping the list. So I named him Deeps.

Generation gap: Earlier it used to be felt between people who are atleast many years apart in age. Now that has changed a lot. Just a couple of years is all what you need to feel that difference.
