    I dunno why, but I absolutely love it when someone comments “no it isn’t” without a comma and the person comes back with “yes, it is” with comma. Commas do a lot of work in creating tone in text and that example is probably one of the most obvious to notice/cite and one of my favorites. So I guess I have an idea of why after all lmao

      Huh, normally I would have omitted that comma myself. I’m not sure why I included it there. I guess it was, as you say, to be even more of a dick to the OP. :)
