First and foremost, I want anyone and everyone to know that I am the official president of the OCD Punctuation Police. The OPP does not get paid. The OPP does not have an office. The OPP does not have uniforms or guns. The OPP does, however, put to use any members OCD. One of the only qualifications of a member (in case you were wondering) is OCD. You must be able to read and catch grammar, spelling, and punctuation mistakes on facebook, powerpoints, worksheets, tests, newspapers, magazines....basically, if it has words on it, it's your job to call 'em like you see 'em. Membership is not official (yet..). There are no meetings, groups, or Facebook pages, but if you would like to become a member, just keep your eyes peeled.
Here are some other qualifications:
- No shyness here. If you see a mistake, let people know. Like I said, you call 'em like you see 'em!
- Must be able to tell the difference of 'their', 'they're', and 'there' and other alike words
- Must never make horrible spelling mistakes like 'tomarrow' *shudders*
- Must have some sort of punctuation experience. Lets,not,overuse,commas,or anything.
Anyways, if you're interested, just find mistakes!
Thank you and have a wonderful day!
