Why they invented punctuation

http://newyork.craigslist.org/que/cas/243802244.html

This ad is very concise. Before any word is written, the author has communicated his age, height, and weight. Four words later we know that he is Italian and that he is looking for women with big penises.

This is the anonymous sex ad that William Strunk would write if he were still alive, but for a lack of punctuation.

Without it, the ad could mean any one of the following:

  1. i love, too. please cum too my condo. very clean. u should be too thick. women a plus! i have pics
  2. i love too please. cum too. my condo very clean. u should be too. thick women a. plus i have pics
  3. i love, too. please cum, too! [a request that you make yourself about as clean as this man's condo] [the fact that, if he were giving grades on the standard American letter based academic grading system, women who are fat would get an A+] [the fact that the author has pictures of himself]
