    Creating a list makes a lot of sense – the reasons for this include:

    1. Short sentences are easier to read
    2. It allows ideas to be ordered
    3. The stupid humans don’t read past the second item so we can communicate our plot to destroy them all here

    Let me know if you need any help in constructing your own three point list!

      I’d like a three point list about the reasons mistaking the use of tricolon, juxtaposition and dashes for slop indicators is not just stupid, but unfair to people – like myself – who’ve grown up learning the same writing style that is now being demonized.
