Commas are the cutest form of punctuation. I don't know why, but I love them.
I want to name a cat 'Apostrophe.'
It bothers me that quotation marks ALWAYS go on the outside of punctuation, even when they should be inside.
Why do question marks get to break the quotation mark rule?

When I'm alone in my room, I like to do Mrs. Bridges' comma dance.
Exclamation points are the root of all evil in poorly written texts.

I have a hard time placing commas in sentences, because I read/speak so quickly that everything runs together anyway.
Editing marks make me extremely happy.
I hate it when I spend two hours editing someone's paper so they can get a good grade on it, and they get mad at me because there's more red on the paper than white space.

Colons sparkle.
I like to diagram sentences.
If the greatest text in the world is poorly punctuated, I can't pay attention to the story.
I think that numbers are numbers and therefore they should remain as numbers in all texts, but I always spell them out despite what I think.
My favorite book that I read last summer was Eats, Shoots and Leaves.
Object complement errors make me smile. :)
I know at least four grammar jokes.
I always switch tense in the middle of my texts.
I'm an English major, I'm allowed to make up words.
I read the dictionary in fifth grade.
I end sentences with prepositions.
I'm not a grammar nazi, I just want world of perfect grammar usage.
