    I’m convinced people who can’t read without commas or periods have a reading comprehension deficit.

    It’s really not that hard to figure out

      Communication is a 2-way street.

      Writing out an incoherent, unpunctuated paragraph is not only lazy on the writer’s part, it’s disrespectful in asking the reader to put in extra work to decipher what the actual hell they are talking about. Fortunately, it’s also a pretty good sign that there’s not a ton of value in whatever they wrote.

      It’s not that hard to figure out, you’re right, but it’s like the difference between a McDonald’s burger and a t-bone steak cooked just right, with fries and a glass of wine. You might not want either, but if you do, most people would prefer the steak.

      Yeah whats so hard reading a long sentence that doesnt use proper punctuation I mean cant you just look at it and understand exactly where theres a natural pause or break in what the person is trying to communicate I mean whats so hard about that seriously your brain must be broken if you find that annoying or hard to read what is wrong with you
