I do like a good em dash!
I love a good dash too –make me feel Victorian.
What is the difference between a dash and a hyphen? I think they are the same, no? The NY Times is making such a big deal about this. They say that
“not everyone is a fan. Online, opinions abound about how and when one ought to use the thin horizontal line. The takes can be surprisingly emotional.”
Can you believe they waste such time on this? My Dad does NOT like the NY Times and he says people get hooked on it b/c of dumb articles like this so they can be the life of the party. FOOEY!
