Poll question: Which is your favorite form of excessive punctuation at DU?
There's a rule against excessive punctuation in certain posts to DU (in the subject line). So here's a completely silly poll -- properly placed in the DU Lounge, of course -- asking DUers to pick their "favorite" form of excessive punctuation.

I don't know what favorite means. Make it mean whatever you want. This poll certainly isn't scientific.

I think semicolons are totally excessive even when used in small batches, so I'm voting for that one. But you may disagree. So please vote.

9. I refuse to vote in this poll
I was just at the semicolon blog, and they are telling people to come here and vote.

:)

OK, so it wasn't my joke the first time it was told. But it's still funny!
