I… met her in a club… down in old Soho…
Where you drink… champagne… and it tastes… just like… Coca-Cola…
Edit: I’ve always thought of it as Shattner’s ellipses lol
Packed my bags…last night preflight.
Zero hour…nine am.
And I’m gonna be…HIGH…as a kite…by then.
Now I have weird al’s yoda stuck in my head
I really liked that album, though.
you need a larger panel with more space to fill in the long pauses for the Shatner comma
Some of the Shatner Commas should be exclamation points.
I feel like with Walken it would be more like:
You know! Bob Sue and, Greg! They? Came to my house!?
Plan for when I’m taken hostage by terrorist group / state actor:
- As. Soon. As. I’m. Taken. Start. Talking. Like. Shatner!
- When the hostage video comes out with me spouting whatever script they gave me, the world cracks up laughing.
You know Bob, Sue, and Greg? They came! In my house!
I don’t give a fuck about an Oxford Comma
It gives a way to distinguish between “Sue, and Greg” (two independent people), and “Sue and Greg” (a couple).
I actually do like the Oxford Comma a lot, but there is a Vampire Weekend song like what I quoted above.
Youuuuu know, bob, sue, ^and Greg^, they cammmmmme, ^to my house^
The Peston comma
What about the Jerry Stiller comma?
