Cartoon of a woman speaking to a group of commas on the ground. She says, “I’m sorry, but I just can’t keep you all in my manuscript. It’s nothing personal!” The commas respond with speech bubbles: “Don’t listen to those Oxford comma haters,” “Pick on the semi-colons instead,” and “You serial comma killer!” The artist’s signature and website (Debbie Ridpath Ohi – DebbieOhi.com) appear at the bottom.

Happy #PunctuationDay to all you Oxford comma haters and advocates! Though I learned from @hunderdown.bsky.social & others that the term "Oxford comma" is relatively new Internet coinage, that the proper term is "serial" comma.

Cartoon of people sitting in a circle at a meeting. One says, “…and then she called me a drama queen! Can you believe it!” with text dialog followed by lots of exclamation marks. Another responds, “How insensitive!” again with lots of exclamation marks. Among other remarks is also “I’ve tried using semicolons instead, but it just isn’t the same!” (Again, with a shower of exclamation marks). A sign nearby reads, “Punctuation Misuse Support Center – Exclamation Mark Group!! Wednesdays 7–8 pm.” Artwork by Debbie Ridpath Ohi.

Every year on #PunctuationDay, I realize once again how many comics I've created about punctuation (but also how many more I need!). 😁

Today is National Punctuation Day! As a writer and language nerd, I love this theme. I'm a sucker for dashes—both em and en—and serial ("Oxford") commas. I've written recently about my love for the ampersand, too. Do you have any favorite punctuation marks or use cases? #PunctuationDay #octothorpe

#PunctuationDay #Language I learned something today from my favorite nerd. The EM Dash is being touted as an AI tell. Turns out it's the most versatile punctuation.

Punctuation usage is changing, partly because AI models are trained on texts in which em dashes are common, causing them to default to using them often. Read more from Medium at buff.ly/4uOziYH
