As War Rages On, Lester Speaks


It has undoubtedly been a distressing week for all involved in the ongoing Civil War, but no one has endured more hardships than our dear friend, Dr. Lester Green. He has been kidnapped and silenced by those on the other side. Early intelligence from the front indicates that BannedWagon goober-peas and troops are holding Lester hostage in a bivouac just northwest of Maplehurst.


Despite all this, a message (shown below) from Lester was smuggled through enemy lines, and an espionage was able to relay questions to and from our treasured P.O.W. before signing in to his account. We stand in solidarity with our dear brother, Lester, and will not let him be silenced.

From Citizen X: Dear Dr. Lester: I noticed that a lot of the members on the banned wagon exhibit a poor mastery of the rules of grammar and spelling. Your posts, on the other hand, seem always to be written with great clarity and decorum in mind. Would you please point out some of the most important grammatical and/or conversational rules we aspiring writers should observe? Feel free to mention any particular banned wagon contributor who provides a commendable example or any who repeat the most egregious errors. Thank you in advance for your kind words of advice. Your humble servant, Citizen X.

Dr. Green: It may sound simple, Citizen X, but my writing advice is to avoid trying to do too much. Understand the basics:  clauses; coordination; subordination; proper use of the comma and the semicolon. Utilize the basic rules of grammar, bub, to say whatever it is you are attempting to say--and say it as clearly and simply as is possible for the average reader to comprehend.
