Eh? You are becoming ever more incoherent. At some point, people
will give up trying to understand you. (Maybe some already have!)

on pointles grammer.


There is rarely such a thing as pointless grammar (or grammer if you
prefer). As paper got cheaper.tracking.was.invented.thus.alleviating the
need to crowd words together. Moveable type printing and the attendant
ability to change fonts ushered in punctuation simplification which is why
you don't see fullstops in newspaper headlines or slug lines. Telegraphy
bought in written punctuation:

PARDON STOP IMPOSSIBLE EXECUTE PRISONER
PARDON IMPOSSIBLE STOP EXECUTE PRISONER

Email has brought in a new generation of those who sneer at sensible
grammar (or 'grammer' if you prefer your spelling howlers in scare
quotes).

My Favourite is:- "Panda eats shoots and leaves"

Which can mean about the eating habits of Pandas, or there is
a hungry dangerous gun toting Panda on the loose!

Depending on the "pointless" punctuation
