The irony in the number of extra commas you've used in this comment...

As a non-native English speaker and writer/typer I'm not well versed in usage of commas unfortunately.

Feel free to add the required ones while reading this comment.

Sorry for the inconvenience this might create.

  • As a native speaker the original comment seemed completely fine, ignore them. Also, I never would never guessed that you weren't also a native English speaker.

    • Agreed. The commas before the sentence-ending 'too' and 'anyway' were perhaps slightly unusual, but not enough so that I even noticed them, and I don't think either is incorrect. All the rest were perfectly normal.

  • This is an example of the difficulty in expressing tone through text. Meant it as a passing lighthearted observational joke.

    No inconvenience at all.

    • Haha, I actually assumed you were making a joke from the beginning, it'd be funny to think that the habit of using comma prefixed commands will make someone more likely to use commas in their sentences.
