Punctuation Matters.

The other day, just before bed, jadefu was flipping through a recent issue of bitch magazine. It occurred to me that these are two completely different statements:

"What are you reading-bitch?"

*"What are you reading, bitch?"

(Astute readers will notice that I have used the linguist's convention of preceding an incorrect or unusable form with an asterisk.)

Also, roller derby this sunday. Waterbury. Providence vs Connecticut. It'll be awesome. azraelabyss will be playing, and what's better than that?

derby, language
