Dictating punctuation


Posted: Sep 8, 2016

Oh my gosh, why do dictators feel the need to tell me when and where to put commas, periods, etc., and sometimes even dictate capitalization at the beginning of sentences.  They drive me bonkers!  Half the time they are incorrect anyhow.

Thank you for letting me vent this lovely morning!  Laughing

I always think to myself, "Don't tell me how to punctuate and I won't tell you how to doctorate."
