BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE COMMA

The comma is a severely underestimated and misunderstood piece of punctuation. Few comprehend the little mark's true influence on language. Scott Colby has found a simple example of its use that will correct this horrible travesty.

The extent of the comma's power is made evident through the huge difference in these two statements:

Come here and help me, douche.

Come here and help me douche.

Big difference, right? And all because of a comma. Now will you give it the respect it deserves by learning how to use it properly? Scott Colby thought so.
