I say this in good faith: oh, stop.

does it piss you off that punct isn't used properly anymore and that, commas, can happen anywhere? Are you one of those who still has use for em-dash?

  • 1.) No. It's another helpful tell. (And what do you mean 'anymore'?)

    2.) I'm comfortable with varied comma stylization.

    3.) My personal usage of the em-dash hasn't changed in a few decades and I don't see it doing so just because a bunch of folks only just recently learned it exists.
