My fellow writer/editor friends should find this amusing.
I just read this article in defense of the semicolon. I have a list of things about it.
1) I wasn't aware that there were semicolon haters out there.
2) the author doesn't use a single one in her article other than briefly as an example.
3) they need to use proofreaders before they post this stuff. (They didn't even use the right kind of dashes so how can they be any kind of authority on any punctuation at all?)

"It's true that exclamation points are criticized for being low-class, and not just because a slang term for them refers to a dog's private bits."
Huh?
Yes. I have NO idea what she was talking about.
I tried to just brush it off and focus on problems I could actually relate to.
