    That artist completely ignored laptop users who might be sitting on the loo, or lying on a sofa, or hanggliding.

    Librarians are actually a hard-drinkin' bunch. I mean, you deal with the general public all day, helping them find information, and see if you don't feel like downing a 5th of Jim Beam afterwards. (We also know how to research the best mixed drinks.) BUT ANYWAY. Youtuberry.

    It's referred to as the Harvard comma in the US, IIRC. My company style guide says we don't use it, but my education taught that one does, so I'm all kinds of mixed up. A good general line is to pick one (oxford or non-oxford) and be consistent throughout a piece of writing. Proofed a grant application last month that veered between using it and not using it and I must have used half my ink just flagging them. That question mark at the end of a sentence thing? That I am doing here? Seems to be a textual representation of "uptalk." Google that term and you'll find a lot of "you kids get off my lawn" grumblings about the youth of today not knowing how to talk. It's also more common among girls and young women, so there may be a bit of sexism in (Bang!) Oh no! (Dies.)
