Reader-submitted question: Do you think people who abuse colons should serve a mandatory 3-year sentence?

I would not normally be on the side of the Justin Bieber supporters, but I think Dan Brown, the author of the linked blog post, is incorrect. The title of this book is obviously First Step 2 Forever: My Story. This has its own problems, but colon abuse is not one of them. There’s no reason to add Bieber’s name to the title. He’s the “author”.

I’m trying not to look at the text in that purple circle.

While I’m on the subject, this book is not called Barack Obama: The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream. That’s just stupid.

And just in case anyone was wondering, this blog is not called Megan: Reflections in the Snow-Covered Hills. That’s even stupider.

Thanks for sending me this link. Who would have thought I’d defend Justin Bieber from the folks at The Mark?
