You should have a fail face, considering this:

I am a comma Nazi. Seriously, I use way to many commas. Not going to lie. :3

If a comma is a BREAK in a sentence, using too many is serious ANNOYING to read, IMO.

@Reality I fixed it before you posted that. I was typing too fast and wasn't thinking. I usually try to use proper grammar.




It should be "seriously" annoying, you use an adverb not an adjective. ui: Put your failface on please. Also, there shouldn't be a comma before IMO. ui:

Yes there should be, and I meant seriously mg: :bebe-pleure:

Because I'm breaking the sentence right before the last word, like so.

You don't really need a comma there in my opinion. I guess it works either way. Depending on how you would say it.

I'd end up sighing where I put the comma.

@Assangha. I laughed so hard!!! "Yo dawg, I'ma let you finish but... You don't need to put commas in front of and. MKAY?" That was perfect in every sense of the word. That's how to use the Kanye West quote.

I was left speechless, at the hilarity of this post.

I hope you were kidding, with that comma.

You comma splice'd. It's "...rules; I..." for future reference.

Seriously, you guys pretend to be grammar nazis but let that slide? I'm taking away all of your badges.

Oh, and Asshanga, he DOES need the comma. It's called a "run on sentence." His sentence can be broken down into two independent, both equipped with a predicate (verb) and a subject (noun), combined only with a conjunction

"Yes there should be, and I meant seriously"

In his first clause, "Yes there should be," the predicate is "should" and the noun is implied. In answering others, many subjects are "forgotten" and implied. In this case, the implied full clause (which is unnecessary) reads "Yes there should be a comma." In his second clause, "I meant seriously," the predicate is "meant" and the subject is "I." As these are not related closely enough but are still two independent clauses, a comma and a conjunction should be used to combine them into one sentence. It would be grammatically correct to substitute both comma and conjunction for a semicolon, but it would be a bad use of the semicolon as the flow of the sentence would be choppy at best.






I am the Queen of the Grammar Nazis. Do not argue with me on any of this.

You didn't have to give a whole lesson about it and rub it in my face. -.-
If I made a mistake in this post and you correct me I'll slap you.

@God: I only mentioned that you comma splice'd. I gave the lesson to Asshanga about somebody else's post.

You forgot a comma in your second sentence, by the way. Oh, and about your signature...

I forgot that comma on purpose to see if you would say something. You failed. *SMACK*

I didn't write that quote, find out who did and give him a lesson.

TECHNICALLY I never corrected you. Just a lil protip.

And see, you keep comma splicing, and it's really annoying. Please learn to use a semicolon! It's your best friend!

You're getting really annoying. Seriously. -.-

Oh and "Just a lil protip." is a phrase, not a complete sentence. Also, "lil" and "protip" aren't words. Now how annoying is that?
