The teacher (usually female, 40-50 years old, divorced) loves to over analyse everything in a text/movie
They stop after every sentence to analyze the words said in whatever piece of media you are studying
"The shirt was dark blue" does not represent the melancholic solitude that the character portrays, maybe the shirt was just fucking dark blue

It is customary to write items in a series with required articles. For example, we write 'a book, a pen, a rubber and a bag'. Mathematically speaking, the article 'a' is common to all the items. So put in a mathematical format, it would be like 'a (book, pen, rubber and bag)' and would be 'a book, pen, rubber and bag' with the removal of brackets/parentheses. (However, mathematics does not allow this.) Both expressions are acceptable.
Suppose we write 'a book, a pen, an erasure and a bag'. Here, the article 'a' cannot be taken as a common factor because there is 'an' before 'erasure'. So it would be wrong to say 'a book, pen, erasure and bag'.
