The provost called me the comma slasher. I was using commas like quarter rests in music notation. Feel free, to correct me, if I relapse :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Personally, I donā€™t see any problem, really, at all. But, that is, of course, just me.

I have always told my students that if I have to raise my voice, that is not a warning just a courtesy shown before your dramatic evisceration.

I know that this is a poisoned chalice but I may try to convince Americans that emphasis comes from structure, punctuation, and syntax. But, while the ā€˜not jokeā€™ continues to exists - all is doomed when flagging sarcasm is needed to show that a humorous point was made.

Sadly, most of those who actually DID come to ELR for grammatical Tips and Tricks have been weeded out.

And i apoligize in advance if I am jumping the 6 shooter.
But if I am right, I make fun of myself enough daily!

Not at all, we are laughing at @D.Sims @SessionDrummer and @SquirrelSmash conversations regarding the weirdness of how a written story is visualized with the ā€œcapitalisation virusā€.
You are a very strong woman and I am so proud of you for kicking that arrogant man to the trash bin!

Weā€™d never conscience attacking someone due to their misfortune, well except if they are French or German. Some of us just went down a rabbit hole of silliness while expressing our care and concern for you.

We are a silly bunch:

Absolutely not @ladycrooks. @SquirrelSmash doesnā€™t AGREE How SD and I write in a forum setting, so thatā€™s all it was. I hope youā€™re all good now. Enjoy this Beautiful Friday!!

Donā€™t worry. I have virtually no hair left to pull out. And, luckily for most of humanity, I confine any annoyance to satire and stilettos.
