Right, time to finish this.

"Instead of that weirdo irritating us all the time, I say we kill him."

This is how it was originally written.

This is how Your Honour thinks it should be written.

"Instead of that weirdo, irritating us all the time, I say we kill him."


Now... surely it DOESN'T need a comma? Please, discuss and argue this.

I know this is a pointless topic... but I don't think this one is going to make much of a difference to the already made mountains of rubbish topics...

Now, as we can all clearly see, my way of writing it was best.

Well it depends what was before it and I would say it went like this without counting the bit before :

"Instead of that weirdo, irritating us all the time. I say we kill him."

Note the full stop.

Am I wrong? :-S
