Commas

So, the blog post I’ve written this week which has generated the most social media buzz was about commas, abolition thereof (England only).

I am in no way disheartened by the way commas have trumped political policy, technology or media matters covered in my more weighty posts. No way at all.

At least not when I’m saying to myself,

Remember, this shows a refreshing interest in punctuation that puts critics of modern standards of English writing to shame.

And so, next week it’s on to semi-colons. I know what my audience wants.

UPDATE: Commas feature in my finest moment.
