Dear Comma

When a misplaced or missing comma, or inserting an extra comma, in a contract can cost a company lots of money, as the meaning of a sentence inadvertently favors the employees instead of the employer.

By accidentally inserting a comma between “fruit” and “plants” in the draft containing “fruit plants, tropical and semi-tropical, are exempt from import tariffs,” all imported fruit suddenly become duty-free; as a result, the government loses tens of millions of dollars for that “dear comma.”

dear Js

the compliments one comes up with while sober (sober for decades actually). one may discover heart-warmth in themselves expressing them to someone of appreciation because they just ring true. ultimately making it a pleasure.

Examples of dear Js:
-you are my attention-sucker
-i love looking at you when im not busy
-thinking of unspeakable things takes all my energy making me a lazy cow
-when i jog i imagine im running to you. It makes me go faster
-you look like a bouquet of my favourite cacti
-if i don't pay attention i might moan on the way to work

Dear Hannah prep is a preppy little store in Texas ran by the one and only super preppy…… you guessed it, Hannah. They steal kids and make them drink Starbucks and act preppy and model their clothing. They r going viral for controversy that isn’t that interesting.
