Punctuation

I really, really hate commas.

Nooo, not commas :D They're cute and wriggly!

I will resist from making the obvious Remus/Shoebox Project reference. But know that I want to.

I'm actually quite fond of them, but they can be tricky little things. :D

(Oh, and I sent off the beta job last night (sorry to be late :/), I do hope you received it.)

Alright then, I shall make it for you. ^^

[livejournal.com profile] rosemaryandrue, you should donate your commas "to the more needy, such as the chinese, who as I understand it have NO COMMAS AT ALL". *nods*

Commas are the toenail clippings of punctuation.

I just wish I could reach a happy median - everything I write either has too many or too few.

(I got it - thank you so much - I don't have access to my gmail at work so I only had time to forward it and then leg it for the bus. You're a star)

Heh. It's all Remus' fault anyway - he's the one thinking things with too many commas in.

Ah, I should have known. :D

Hm, I knew it would appear somewhere in reply to this entry! :D

i'm rather fond of them; though semi-colons rule over them all. :D :D :D

*nods* Yes, because semi-colons can be used to make smiley faces, and commas cannot. Commas, therfore, fail to fulfill a primary function of all modern-minded punctuation.

*therefore

The commas have stolen my spelling ability.
