That unnecessary comma makes this read like a command
Some people have a problem with the left photo, some with the right photo. And some are furious because of THAT FUCKING COMMA!!!!
why use an Oxford comma when you can just
can just end the fucking sentence.
I actually like it, but, I suppose, I like to use commas.
Commas are great for lists, and for combining two sentences into one using a conjunction like and, or, but, etc.; like I just did.
If you made each side of the comma a sentence then arguably neither would make a complete sentence.
but, you know, english isn't everybods native language, so i don't give a fuck, if someone puts a comma somewhere, where they shouldn't.
I don't mind all of the commas except the last 3. I think the comment should have ended after "fuck".
In your opinion, were there too many commas in my original comment? (Serious question)
Edit: just because I'm curious. I like my writing to be at least somewhat proper.
