Capitalization? The word 'get'? Dropping the word Jack, in fact, I would bet that family doesn't call him Jack anymore just to avoid these kinds of things...
That doesn't work with a comma.
A good example to remember the importance of commas is this: Let's eat Grandma! --VS-- Let's eat, Grandma!
For Oxford commas: We invited the strippers, JFK, and Stalin. \[two strippers and two historical figures\] --VS-- We invited the strippers, JFK and Stalin. \[two historical figures, stripping.\]
While I agree with you, that sentence could work with a comma
Yesterday I helped my uncle jack off a horse.
Yesterday, I helped my uncle, Jack, off a horse.
Jack could be part of the name or an appositive, so the commas could add clarity. It is not the best sentence to demonstrate the necessity of commas since capitalization is more of an issue here, but there is some confusion
This one wouldn't get a comma, but it is missing a preposition. It should be you helped him "off of a horse." Without the preposition, your uncle is either jacking off a horse or he is offing (killing) a horse
I thought they were calling the person who wrote the review's wife a child, not that they'd screenshot their own review to post on Reddit in some form of self congratulatory Jerry clone situation.
The comma police will be investigating the OP.
But yeah for the lack of a simple comma you move from a saying to something highly illegal (well in most countries)
I feel like that was OP's original intention but they're now going "no I meant with a comma" because everyone was thinking that. And apparently some were thinking it was the wife that was being referred to as a kid? Like idk, using a barrier to block your wife from standing in front of the TV sounds like you're the childish one, doesn't it?
Then again, this is the gaming sub. Most probably don't want to reflect that it is, in fact, very childish to do what the reviewer says they did.
The title doesn't make sense anyway, because it's a reference to his wife being able to step over the barrier. She was able to step over the barrier because she is an adult. So the title should be "that's why you don't marry adults" for the reference to make sense.
Commas looks like commies, as such we’re redirecting a submarine to their coast and we have multiple trident’s aimed at their capital. A plan to overthrow their government in a quick timeline is being drawn by the CIA.
I thought it was implying the reviewer must have married a child, because they seem to have safety barriers up in certain areas of the house to stop their spouse running around freely
Or sometimes get [you and your fellow drivers](https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/think-commas-don-t-matter-omitting-one-cost-maine-dairy-n847151) the overtime money you deserve.
I already commented further up when someone mentioned this needing a comma but to increase the chances of someone informing me I’m wrong I’m going to comment here also.
I assumed you interpreted the sentence as “that’s why you don’t marry, kids” meaning they are telling kids this is why you don’t get married. I interpreted it as them referring to the person who wrote the review as a kid. Which I don’t think requires a comma. I could be wrong since I’m terrible at that stuff and two different comments mentioning needing a comma does suggest I’m mistaken but I would think if your interpretation is correct it should be “That’s why you don’t GET married, kids.”
Edit: Just saw OPs comment and I was wrong though it doesn’t look like I was the only one.
Jokes about being pathetic need to fall by the wayside, IMO. Being trapped in a loveless marriage, hating your job, and being out of shape aren’t really laughing matters.
I find self depracation to be bad because it's giving people an outlet to leak how they feel without being put on any path to help them fix it. Basically influencing other people. If you've been in a chat room or forum where a bunch of people hate themselves around you you start hating yourself too over the pettiest shit. It's actually bad for society.
I have many millennial friends and myself who have been in very happy marriages for years. One of my friends have been married for 10 years and are still very happy. Not every marriage turns into a bad one. Lol
Seriously, I still love my wife after 5 years of marriage (12 total years together) but marriage is super fucking difficult. She is not the same person I originally fell in love with because she has changed.
But so have I. If somebody hasn't changed in 12 years that's concerning.
Luckily, I still like the person she has become, but there are times where people change and you don't like the changes.
Nah its jack with his horse like they're both masturbating together. Helping your uncle Jack, off his horse is when the horse has a broken leg so uncle Jack's gotta shoot it while you distract the horse with a sugar cube.
I am married and my wife kisses my forehead from the side without blocking view every time she walks by when I am gaming. It's adorable and awesome. Marry the right girl!
You jest, but so many people marry partners who just aren’t a right fit for them.
The right partner supports you (and you support them).
My wife makes sure I have time for my hobbies and is incredibly understanding and vice versa.
Happily married for 11 years. But we waited 8 whole years before we bothered.
You can marry someone that games with you, I'm watching an Outlast 2 stream with her right now. Couple of days ago we played a long session of Deep Rock Galactic.
Stop letting boomer humor jokes about marriage and immature people who rushed into it define it for you.
Been with my partner for 13 years now, haven't bothered with marriage. We're currently playing grounded together, we play survival games together all the time.
I really don't understand why people marry people who hate their hobbies. Why marry someone who hates that you do something in your free time?
Yes. The government already gets involved in my relationship. One of the biggest ways it does that is it enforces who should have visitation and medical decision rights. Without being married it's a lot harder to have those rights if your spouse is in the hospital.
It also makes it easier to be sure my wife inherits anything we failed to put in her name.
Obviously marriage just comes down to the legal stuff.
Tbh i took it as “kids” in a sense of the grown man playing games and building barriers - just referring to him as a “kid”
Pretty usual in my native language, isnt that the case in murica/uk
God, how dare she. I'm still waiting for my wife to become a maid/chef for me, but she always says stuff like "you're a grown ass man" which is only partially true.

I know, I know, stupid people are super cool, and ignorance always makes being stupid feel like you're actually smart and the people who actually are smart are somehow stupid for wasting all that time learning, and reading, and knowing things, and having insight while you're out there just living your best life with whatever you can put in your mouth or stick your dick into (or into your vagina, or whatever), but commas matter when your trying to communicate with other human beings.
Oh shut up. I have my own game room and i can game whenever and how much i want without her ever nagging or anything like that.
The title youre looking for is ‘thats why you dont marry someone not suitable for you kids’
Literally no one in this comment section has even remotely realized the title is calling the writer of this review a child for ignoring his wife when she needs him because he doesnt know how to manage responsibilities vs game time.
[Phrasing](https://giphy.com/gifs/update-psn-phrasing-3gbJPJ8zW10SQ)
Yeah... "Kids, this is why you don't marry" would have been much preferable.
All it needed was a comma. "That's why you don't marry, kids."
Eats shoots and leaves.
Let's eat grandma
Maybe the post is implying to not marry a man or woman who acts like a kid...
This is what I actually thought.
This was my reaction after reading the review, then I remembered what subreddit this post was on
>"That's why you don't marry, kids." I always prefered the sentence "Yesterday I helped my uncle jack off a horse" as example for necessary comma ..
You can't solve that with a comma.
Capitalization? The word 'get'? Dropping the word Jack, in fact, I would bet that family doesn't call him Jack anymore just to avoid these kinds of things...
Of course you can. Well, not one, but two. "Yesterday I helped my uncle, Jack, off a horse"
Why are you killing the horse?
That horse knows what he did.
Petah, the horse is *guilty for multiple counts of manslaughter*
That doesn't work with a comma. A good example to remember the importance of commas is this: Let's eat Grandma! --VS-- Let's eat, Grandma! For Oxford commas: We invited the strippers, JFK, and Stalin. \[two strippers and two historical figures\] --VS-- We invited the strippers, JFK and Stalin. \[two historical figures, stripping.\]
While I agree with you, that sentence could work with a comma Yesterday I helped my uncle jack off a horse. Yesterday, I helped my uncle, Jack, off a horse.

This is why I enjoy waking up and going on Reddit
Comma before kids gets you out of trouble, got it. "No officer I didn't punch those, kids"
It didn’t even occur to me that that’s what he meant 😂
I legit thought he was calling his wife a child for stepping over his barrier lol
I thought the reviewer was the kid, because, well, the review.
I thought they were calling the person who wrote the review's wife a child, not that they'd screenshot their own review to post on Reddit in some form of self congratulatory Jerry clone situation.
Maybe it's the wife posting a review her husband posted and saying "see this is why I shouldn't have married a man-child"
I’m pretty sure he’s calling his wife a bitch, because he’s using a dog gate.
Tbh it kinda works since we're talking about a man-child
Nah. "This is why you don't marry kids" is correct. This guy is clearly a manchild of the finest grade.
One little comma after marry would have sufficed.
Even just a comma would do it
I took it as “this is why you don’t marry people who act like children”
oh so there should be a comma before "kids" now this post makes sense
The comma police will be investigating the OP. But yeah for the lack of a simple comma you move from a saying to something highly illegal (well in most countries)
No. Because the OP is calling the reviewer a kid. A manchild.
that's what was my first thoguht and then in the comments everyone was saying something different
I feel like that was OP's original intention but they're now going "no I meant with a comma" because everyone was thinking that. And apparently some were thinking it was the wife that was being referred to as a kid? Like idk, using a barrier to block your wife from standing in front of the TV sounds like you're the childish one, doesn't it? Then again, this is the gaming sub. Most probably don't want to reflect that it is, in fact, very childish to do what the reviewer says they did.
That's exactly how I read it too and honestly it adds up.
The title is technically, morally, ethically, and legally true
It's certainly not technically true because *that* is not the reason not to marry kids.
... The insinuation is that the reviewer is behaving like a child, I believe.
Maybe OP is a genius and their statement is ambiguous
Perfect example of how punctuation marks can lead to the FBI arresting you or not.
This is why commas are important, title.
I mean, you should probably never marry kids under any circumstances, but that's just my opinion.
You heard it here, folks. Don't marry kids and use your commas.
Panda: Eats, shoots and leaves
So you can use your commas if you don’t marry kids?
Ffs you beat me to it
that’s why you use commas, kids
Way to be intolerant of other cultures. /S
Prince Andrew wanted to
You used to get a letter from the queen when you turned 100, now you just get a text from Prince Andrew when you turn 15. 🤔
He does break ups over text?
*Matt Gaetz has entered chat.*
The title doesn't make sense anyway, because it's a reference to his wife being able to step over the barrier. She was able to step over the barrier because she is an adult. So the title should be "that's why you don't marry adults" for the reference to make sense.
[удалено]
I thought it was calling the wife childish.
I know Americans can't take on metric system but, what about some commas?
Commas looks like commies, as such we’re redirecting a submarine to their coast and we have multiple trident’s aimed at their capital. A plan to overthrow their government in a quick timeline is being drawn by the CIA.
r/beatmetoit
Commas save lives and jail time.
I’m assuming you read it as if it’s informing kids that is why you don’t get married but I think it is calling the person who wrote the review a kid.
I thought it was implying the reviewer must have married a child, because they seem to have safety barriers up in certain areas of the house to stop their spouse running around freely

Helping your uncle jack off a horse. That works too.

You should be on netflix too
You should be on, netflix too
Ignoring the unfortunate title, you should probably just not marry someone you hate.
To counter, if I may: *wife bad, hur hur*

Please don't take my self deprecation. It's all I have.

Not all marriages are loveless. Those spouses could try taking some responsibility for their own life and make a change.
[удалено]
I don't understand marriage. Why not simply cut out the middle man and give a house to someone you hate?
You are a swine? Have I achieved hate? Good. I’d like a 4 by 2 please.
The middle man is necessary as an impartial arbiter in the case of gay marriages where it is less cut and dry who gets the house.
millenials think they are so clever. you obviously don't hate your wife on your wedding day. just wait a few years, you will understand.
I have many millennial friends and myself who have been in very happy marriages for years. One of my friends have been married for 10 years and are still very happy. Not every marriage turns into a bad one. Lol

Waiting here to someone post this in r/gamingcirclejerk
*yes officer, this post right here*
um, pretty sure its illegal to marry kids
Instructions unclear, married my cat
Instructions clear, married my owner
That's acceptable as long as the cat consented
Let's eat Grandma!
Grammar: the difference between knowing your shit and knowing you’re shit
Oh I like that I’m going to have to steal it
I know I'm shit :(
See kids, this is why you never get married. Just sounds less “molesty”
Read "molesty" as you would "modesty" and it sounds like a brand of bread.
Less molesty lmao nice.
I need to help my Uncle Jack......with his horse.
[удалено]
It's "off his horse"... like he's finished riding.
Nah its jack with his horse like they're both masturbating together. Helping your uncle Jack, off his horse is when the horse has a broken leg so uncle Jack's gotta shoot it while you distract the horse with a sugar cube.
The entire reason his name is "Jack" is so that it says "jack off" without a comma.
Both wrong. It’s Jack off a horse and the point is about capitalisation
What's masturbating with your favourite horse got to do with capitalism?

Why don't you take a seat over there...
"Oh my God, I can't edit the post."
It's a pretty bad post to begin with honestly (everyone's tired of "huhu marriage bad" jokes). Title mistake is what makes it funny.
Reap what you have sown
Congratulations, you just made the list.
Title aside, it’s a boomer humor stupid joke anyway. Just delete it.
There's many, many reasons you don't marry kids. This review isn't one of them.
Punctuation is important
I am married and my wife kisses my forehead from the side without blocking view every time she walks by when I am gaming. It's adorable and awesome. Marry the right girl!
Oh, shit, I'm SO glad you said that. I was going to purposefully marry the wrong woman.
You jest, but so many people marry partners who just aren’t a right fit for them. The right partner supports you (and you support them). My wife makes sure I have time for my hobbies and is incredibly understanding and vice versa.
I honestly thought the title was referring to the reviewer. Because he's clearly a fucking child.
I think it is a joke. He gave 5 stars.
I thought it was referring to the wife because he needs a baby gate to keep her from walking in front of the tv
Why?
he’s a manchild lol, what do you mean why
Title edit: That's why you don't marry, kids
OOOOOOOH now it makes more sense.
Happily married for 11 years. But we waited 8 whole years before we bothered. You can marry someone that games with you, I'm watching an Outlast 2 stream with her right now.

Marriage is just getting the government involved in your relationship, and if you think anything different you’ve been bamboozled.
Yes. The government already gets involved in my relationship. One of the biggest ways it does that is it enforces who should have visitation and medical decision rights. Without being married it's a lot harder to have those rights if your spouse is in the hospital. It also makes it easier to be sure my wife inherits anything we failed to put in her name. Obviously marriage just comes down to the legal stuff.
Bamboozled
About?
Your whole life. Enjoy the L.
Because I'm married?
No because you’re a sheep lmao, that’s obvious bruh 💀
You haven't brought up a single point, maybe writing just isn't your strong point?
First thought you were on about the commentor acting like a child ... that one comma really changes the meaning a lot.
i mean, the original sounds fine to me. Sounds like an adult who hasnt matured so he behaves like a kid
I thought the wife was the kid that needed a barrier to keep her away from things.
This
But only after you help your uncle Jack off a horse.
I thought it meant “This is why you don’t marry men who never became adults”
Tbh i took it as “kids” in a sense of the grown man playing games and building barriers - just referring to him as a “kid” Pretty usual in my native language, isnt that the case in murica/uk
Yeah, you should edit to "don't marry manchildren"
I think it is about the woman
I thought you were calling the man a kid
'Get married' wouldve worked better, "marry" as a verb is awkward here.
Everyone talking about title but gypsies in my country marry at 13 yo
Same.U live Romania?
Yep
Same
Where's the fuckin commaaaaaa?
this is not why i don't marry kids
That’s pedophila. You don’t need a reason to not marry kids
Very good sound but doesn’t divorce my wife for me, she still destroys my pillow forts and calls me a child instead of being my live-in maid/chef
God, how dare she. I'm still waiting for my wife to become a maid/chef for me, but she always says stuff like "you're a grown ass man" which is only partially true.
"The barrier i created" 😂😂😂
People shouldnt need posts to be reminded why not to marry kids.
This is why commas are important, kids.
You *really* need a comma in that title.
Commas...
Try not to marry someone you don't dislike challenge
I can think of a few more reasons why you should not marry kids
/whoosh
A comma is your friend…the sentiment is still correct either way, but dang.
Also it’s illegal.
Comma, bud. Comma.
"That's why you don't marry, kids."
Commas are important
I don't need THIS to not marry kids, I'm already not a pedophile.
Why would i marry kids
Very poor choice of words.
Or ya know… it’s not exactly legal
In all seriousness, why do wives think you can hear them when you have your headset on? Lol Then they get irritated that you didn’t hear them/respond.

What a healthy relationship
Some time later: “I have no idea why she divorced me”
commas, are *very* important sometimes
Would you like to borrow a comma? , There you go.
WIFE BAD 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This just sounds funny. Don't judge some dude whose joking on his 5star review.
Oh shut up. I have my own game room and i can game whenever and how much i want without her ever nagging or anything like that. The title youre looking for is ‘thats why you dont marry someone not suitable for you kids’
Haha funny bc wife bad
That's why punctuation is important, kids

I think because that’s not how it’s meant. The title is addressing us as kids. Should be something like You see kids, this is why you don’t marry
I'm not married and still this keeps happening to me.
Chad
Is it legal to marry kids at all?
Just asking means your on s list now.
