Some abuse that has been given to the semicolon
“ugly as a tick on a dog’s belly”
“transvestite hermaphrodites representing absolutely nothing”
“Real men, goes the unwritten rule of American punctuation, don’t use semi-colons”
“girly,” “odious,” and “the most pusillanimous, sissified, utterly useless mark of punctuation ever invented.”
“like an ink smudge on a new white carpet.”
