Why is it that no one, including people who supposedly have degrees in English, understands the proper way to use commas? It isn't that hard, folks!

Or maybe I only think it isn't hard because I had to teach it to middle school kids.

Sigh.

Today sucks.

You know, that's something I struggle with. I try to follow the old addage "when in doubt, leave it out".

That's actually good advice. The thing I was editing when I wrote this had too many commas, in places they didn't remotely belong.
