Quite entertaining, but I don’t quite understand all the fuss.

Very entertaining but anyone who knows anything about grammar should already know 90% of this!

NOT WORTH CONSUMING
Stodgily unreadable – a collection of quite interesting punctuation anecdotes glued together with boilerplate jokey journalism, and heavy, extensive quoting of other people.
Really can’t decide who this is aimed at – it opens by revelling in insane elitism and pedantry and telling the ignorant to fuck off and get a life, then goes on to explain basic apostrophe usage and apologises if the reader already knows this.
Luckily the gift-giver kept the receipt.
