“Turns out we’re both teachers.” Posts a 90 word run on sentence.
We are all doomed.
“And” is perfectly valid punctuation.
You can write a whole book with just one sentence if the sentence is right-branching. Run-on sentence “rule” is more of an advice for beginners.
It’s a perfectly good and legible sentence and conveys people having an excited conversation. It gives you no break.
Lemmy users when someone’s creative writing uses slightly incorrect or unconventional grammar for stylistic effect:
These replies are mega cope. It’s not slightly incorrect, just incorrect or very lazy. It’s mentally exhausting to try and read this way, and they do not capitalize beginning of their ‘sentences’, nor ‘I’, etc.
Writing in this way does not make one come off as the next e. e. cummings, they just look very uneducated.
Because it’s hard to read…
alright so sometimes people write things incorrectly to convey emotions. Run on sentences imo express exasperation and absurdity much better than proper sentencing.
Tbh, just because I’m capable of writing well, doesn’t mean I always do, especially online. If OOP is an english teacher it’s a bit concerning since not making it a run-on sentence would just be better storytelling, but otherwise eh.

This might be the most bougie post I have ever seen on Lemmy.
So is she a teacher or a paralegal?
OP and the other customer are teachers, the person sampling out the wine is a paralegal
Why do you wanna buy pasta in the wine shop?
To be fair, the signage was very misleading.
Some of the nicer places have a gourmet section where you can buy stuff like nice cheese, meats that you would put on crackers, and higher end products, including pasta. Chances are high. If you get a bottle of wine, you probably want some snacks to go with it.

I like random fusion stores. I once bought a jacket from a shop that sold army surplus clothing on one side, and had an ice cream parlour on the other. Few feet from each other.
I used to go buy ammo to a store that was directly connected to a pet store. You had to walk through the pet store to get to the hunting goods, guns, and ammo “half”.
There was a fishing goods/dolls store near where I grew up that also intrigued me. I decided it must be a husband/wife joint venture.
That combination worries me :(
The test result indicates that you’re not Kristi Noem. Congratulations!
White wine demands freshly cooked pasta and an interesting partner nearby
Context plz.
Reference to Code Ment by PurpleEyesWtf, more specifically the most famous and memed conversation from it; IIRC it has its own knowyourmeme article, but I can’t remember its name.
Thanks, I’ll look it up.
They tend to offer original high quality Italian pasta for sale.
Maybe because it’s both Italian?
In my place we have one ‘Italien shop’ which sells all sorts of Italian food and amongst it is also wine.
