Why don't you start by using sentence case?

Hate to break this to you, but for the last few years reddit is the rest of the internet (and yes, I know about incorrect subject-noun agreement, wanna fight about it?)

Ironically, in this cartoon, "Edward." is an improperly punctuated sentence fragment.

Not sure if incompetent...or brilliant...

irony

[–]Hermocrates 1 point2 points ago

Not an improperly punctuated sentence fragment, just a declaratory statement about which the context hasn't been given.

Subject without a predicate = Not a sentence

[–]Hermocrates 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Whatever.

You see, you don't need to include the predicate explicitly if it can be garnered through context. For example, it should be clear that in my statement the implied meaning was "Whatever you say." And in the picture's context, it was most probably "I am Edward." or "You'd better be careful what you do around Edward." But, as I said, the context was not available to us, most likely as we are not incredibly familiar with street code and what writing one's name on a wall fully entails. However, in the context of street gangs the sentence is laden with meaning and gives all the intended meanings.

A sentence fragment, on the other hand, would.

That is bro grammar. Saying that context will fill in the blanks and correct the incorrect syntax is the antithesis of grammar.

[–]Hermocrates 0 points1 point ago

I'll agree that it's a sentence fragment if you'll agree that sentence fragments are valid and correct forms of grammar.

Do you have it backwards? Reddit is the guy smoking a pipe... FWIW, I smoke a pipe.

[–]quigeybo 1 point2 points ago

That was the joke, fella.

[–]insidioustact 0 points1 point ago

I still fail to see anything funny there, honestly... Is my sense of humor just off right now?

[–]quigeybo 0 points1 point ago

Maybe.. He was implying that reddit isn't as intellectual as it thinks it is by intentionally interpreting the hoodlum as reddit, rather than the professor.

It was "kind of" funny IMO.

This is one of the things that I love about reddit. We're supposed to be sharing culture here. And if we don't care about punctuation, spelling and grammar, we're practically destroying part of our culture. The fact that we engage in deep discussions shows that we're not as shallow as we may seem (even with all those memes).

Keep being that way, reddit. :)

[–]steel_jay 1 point2 points ago

Eh, not in the slightest way ever. Unless you are thinking of site's pretentiousness, then it is a definite yes.

Oh god, this reminds me of a horrible movie I was forced to watch called "The Wackness." I laughed. I wasn't supposed to.

Oh thank goodness - someone finally capitalized that comic. The lowercase "edward." always bugged me.
