    I had to read that 5 times to figure out there as a missing period between “working” and “time”.

    Its still funny though. While we’re here in this comment, let me tell you some fascinating things about the B-29 you’re standing next to. Did you know that during the war…

        Yeah it’s especially annoying when people write long winding complicated sentences and use no punctuation signs whatsoever it’s so infuriating!

          I don’t… know which, is worse… too much punctuation, or, not enough punctuation…

            Definitely none. While your comment is annoying, at least it’s legible without needing to be read 17 times.

              Also, the run on sentences aren’t that bad it’s the multiple sentences with a missing period between the two that suck.

        I’m noticing a disturbing lack of punctuation recently.

        With inflation raising the costs of everything, should we really be surprised that people can’t afford to waste expensive punctuation on memes?

      I read it 5 times, and couldn’t understand it until I saw your comment. So thank you!
