Semicolons - S0m3th1ng

This quote was added by s0m3th1ng
Semicolons are one of the most unnecessary things. They merge two independent clauses, but a conjunction or period will do the same. You may be wonder, "Why do we still use them?" This is an excellent question. I don't know the exact answer, but I do have a few theories. People may still use them in order to seem more prestigious. It is like buying from a designer brand. There are other items that are just as good yet people still buy these things in order to appear prestigious.

semicolons are used to "connect" two sentences together that are "related" with each other. a semicolon is like a period and a comma and also a colon but the semicolon is a semicolon so its not a full colon and so i interpret the use of the semicolon to "connect" two sentences together that are "related" with each other

there are many things that a person may do in their life recreationally; too many recreational things to do in the lifetime of a person and a lot of people dont much. if there were less choices, people will make more out of their lives.
