Sentence Structure and a new rule

I was having a conversation with Baron Von Turkeypants and this thought came to me

"GreyWolf LoBo23 (9:40:25 PM): Y'know what millions of internet people need to realize?
GreyWolf LoBo23 (9:38:20 PM): Certain punctuation and simple capitalization of a letter completely change the meaning of a sentence. Like...
GreyWolf LoBo23 (9:38:43 PM): "Mike is helping his uncle jack off a horse" or "Mike is helping his uncle, Jack, off a horse"

I think I heard a comedian say something similar, but I forgot which one.

The point is, there is a new rule.
"All posts must have a level of literacy that is understandable to the majority of members reading it".

Any post made before this rule is non-subject to it, but any post made after this rule has to be understandable to at least a few people.

Thank you for reading.

VC Approved.

And, I mean, if your post is illegible, everyone will just ignore it and not respond anyway. That's what I do if I can't read it or it gives me a headache to, ignore it or ignore the whole thread, if they're all bad. Just not worth it to puzzle through.

Amen

And the correct phrasing for that sentence (praying you were not intending to reference inter-species erotica) is:

"Mike is helping his Uncle, Jack, off of a horse."
