Bad Comma
Design, Misc. | Thursday, April 24th, 2008 @ mid-afternoon
We have several “Eagle Eyes” at SKAGGS and we totally understand the importance of having work proof read, although you’ve probably noticed a few typos on the blog. I have an insanely bad habit of being liberal with the comma. Not sure why…maybe because I’ve yet to fully grasp its correct usage. Anyway, I came across illustrator David Lanham. He was commissioned to do an illustration for Weiner + Weiner, a German company that specializes in proof-reading copy for publications.
It roughly says, “A comma in the wrong place can be a dangerous thing”.
I love the comma carnage, it absolutely cracks me up. See the full piece here.

I also find this priceless as well. Maybe I will post this on my wall to keep me from slipping up.
