Alte Veste Academy Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Commas. Otherwise I'm wondering what meds you started using in your eyes and why it was a bad plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanaqui Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Is another comma-nt going to be superfluous? Well, I comma-nd everybody for getting that right! You all have a great comma-nd of English punctuation!(And thanks so much for a-comma-dating my puns. I don't mean to dis-comma-de you, of course, or make you comma-tose with this punnishment.)

happypamama Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Yes, commas! Besides adding clarity, you could remove the part between the commas and still have the sentence make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
