I'm a grammar whore myself, but I don't see it. If anything, there are commas that appear to be extraneous, but are actually needed to successfully translate the speech pattern to written format. And... Just so Anonymous doesn't feel alone, it weirds me out a bit to see so many other mini-Manolos, too. To each his/her own, and I'm happy that the Manolo is pleased by it, but I'm glad it's not happening to me. I'm all asquee every time I see that another Manolo-fan has "voted" for my nomination (the "whatever biotch, I am the Manolo" line). I shall pee myself if it gets on a t-shirt.

She seems to make the argument for fewer commas, rather than more (a British preference, I think). Plus, in certain situations, such as when writing creatively, the rules can be broken - to great effect. I'm also on the lookout for punctuation and grammatical errors, but I find nothing offensive about Manolo's writing. Perhaps in his case, the errors, they enhance the meaning and better indicate the cadence of speech? McAfee, have you read “Eats Shoots & Leaves” by Lynne Truss?

Manolo, you're a genius, but some of your catch phrases are missing essential commas. Add them and I'll start shopping.
