“Three days of chatting, no single comma, full stop, or question mark” — Teacher dumps lady over punctuation
Pope Itodo, a teacher, describes his encounter with a woman whom he dumped after three days of texting because of her bad punctuation.
The young man vented on Facebook about his stressful stage conversation with a woman.
Itodo claims that in three days of texting her, the woman has not used a single punctuation mark. Without the punctuation, he continued, her chats give him a headache as he tries to understand the proper meaning of the sentence.
“I know I just met this babe but I can’t do this anymore. Three days of chatting and she has not used a single comma, full stop, or even question mark! She will just say “Have you eaten”. What is that? Are you asking a question or telling me something!? Am I asking for too much? I am not even saying you should use anything fancy like a semi colon, hyphen, or exclamation mark! And apart from lagos all states in Nigeria are proper nouns! What is abuja?” he wrote.
