One of my previous new year resolutions was to improve my grammar and interpunctuation skills, wished by some teachers that dreaded my long, dwindling (learn to use the comma!?), rambling (or any of its brothers and sisters), rants as sentences. I’m a strong believer in if you’re going to do something do it as good as you possibly can; why I decided to in return become tyrannical in matters towards people that I believe should know better, be it grammatical or typographical.
So I guess I’m one of the few students to have turned in an English test with the words: “I found two typographical errors, I marked them up for you.”
