  3. i use commas was too much. of course, they’re all grammatically correct, but I use them way too much. What I use more than commas though, is the semi-colon; i adore those fuckers more than any other grammatical piece ever. I use them so much, I think, because I like to wrtie as I would speak.

  16. The comma goes places , I don’t really care about this item and that’s about it

I do like using them becasue i am a fan of run on sentences and run on and then and then and then
