I'm not.

If you’re not, and I say this in good faith, take your own advice around your tone. Making assumptions about other people, and then doubling down when they correct you, comes across as a kind of horrible I doubt you truly are.

[nickburns]

I say this in good faith: oh, stop.

[JumpCrisscross]

Right, you’re a troll. Something, something Dwight Macdonald about parody needing to be smart and not bitter.

[nickburns]

Nothing here is remotely parody.

[JumpCrisscross]

I guess one doesn’t need to know they’re a parody to be funny.

[nickburns]

As if that makes any sense.

[reactordev]

does it piss you off that punct isn't used properly anymore and that, commas, can happen anywhere? Are you one of those who still has use for em-dash?

[JumpCrisscross]

> Are you one of those who still has use for em-dash?

I still like ‘em!

[nickburns]

This meme, too—shall pass.

1.) No. It's another helpful tell. (And what do you mean 'anymore'?)

2.) I'm comfortable with varied comma stylization.

3.) My personal usage of the em-dash hasn't changed in a few decades and I don't see it doing so just because a bunch of folks only just recently learned it exists.
