Saturday Six – Episode 200

16 February 2008 5 Comments

It’s the 200th edition of the Saturday Six! Where’s my cake?!?

  • First to play last week: Linda of Huffington Post fame. Congratulations!
    (According to the rules, “First to Play” requires you to be the first to include the link to the specific entry in which you answered the questions, not just the general link to your blog.)

Here are this week’s “Saturday Six” questions. Either answer the questions in a comment here, or put the answers in an entry on your journal…but either way, leave a link to your journal so that everyone else can visit! To be counted as “first to play,” you must be the first player to either answer the questions in a comment or to provide a complete link to the specific entry in your journal in which you answer the questions. A link to your journal in general cannot count. Enjoy!

1. Other than a period, which punctuation mark do you think you use the most?

2. If a question mark indicated that you are inquisitive and an explanation point indicated that you are excitable, which mark best represents your personality?

3. Which punctuation mark gave you the most trouble in school?

4. Take the quiz: What’s Punctuation Mark Are You?

5. Which do you tend to be better at: punctuation or spelling?

6. If you could banish one punctuation mark forever, which would you choose and why?

If you have a Reader’s Choice question you’d like to see asked (and answered), send me an email! I’d love to be able to include it in a future edition of the Saturday Six.

    I haven’t done this in like a year! First post, since I lost the others. Great topic!

    1. Does the dash count? I’m a hyper-dasher and have to edit all my work clean of them.

    2. Question mark

    3. I’m a comma splicer. Compulsively. If I stop to think while writing I’m apt to put a comma there–as if all the words will tumble off the page (or screen) without a punctuated barrier.

    4. HA-HA-HA-HA-HA! A comma…

    5. Spelling

    6. Probably the exclamation point. Like shouting from the page, overly dramamtic.
