    I’m not screaming about an em-dash. Look at the first comment they make on their posts and come back and tell me what you think.

      come back and tell me what you think.

      I also dislike this sort of condescending tone on forums. I’m guilty of it too, but it never makes me want to engage.

        I’m not being condescending at all and your comment makes perfect sense in isolation. It’s stupid to call out a single construction (or punctuation mark) as you’re interpreting me as having done. I’m just assuming you’re smart enough to see a pattern when you see it repeated often enough; so sorry, I guess?

      I wasn’t involved here, got curious, did look and… Yeah it’s odd. An awful lot of commonality.
