Caught You!
    — Comma Overload


“Caught You!” identifies places where people don't quite do the full job with their marketing materials and ads: major typos, Photoshop flubs, etc.

Some people complain when a comma is left out, and either confuses or outright changes the meaning of what is written.  Then there are those places where commas are sprinkled in like coarse ground pepper.

This is from a plastic bag.  It’s a bit hard to read, but it says:

WARNING: To avoid danger.of suffocation, keep
this plastic bag away from babies and children
Do not use this bag in cribs,beds,carriages
and, play-pens.
