[QUOTE="Jason73, post: 244633, member: 3"] That tends to be my rule when using commas. Plus, I try not to overthink it--like I'm doing right now with that comma after "plus." I only know because when I taught third grade it was part of our curriculum. Luckily I only had to teach how to recognize them and not how to apply them properly. I'm always filled with self doubt whenever I use a semi-colon. Again, I go with the "just feels right" rule. That makes sense to me. If I had to retype "neighbour" to "neighbor" every time my iPhone auto corrected, I'd hate it too. I already have enough built up resentment towards my phone's ability to completely botch it's auto correcting duties. [/QUOTE]
