This blog is made of people...OF PEOPLE!
But it's still really funny.
Chris Cameron
Never has a punctuation mark been so aggressive yet funny at the same time.
Kathy Frederick
Of all the commas I misplace, I never lose this one. Awesome and original blog!
The Hypocritcal one....

Love the blog. Hate the moustache.
Jeff
Brent is responsible for introducing to me to new favorite place... the couch of non-rising-ness.
Blog of Bex
Funny and easy on the eyes. It's the killer combo....
muskrat
not as threatening as his cousin the ellipsis. good writing and fun to read!
Beau Horner
Always there when I need a comma...or when I'm having problems with my colon, or I'm on my period, or if I get brackets..........wait......
Stephanie M
I just want to say thanks for making punctuation fun again!
Rickey Henderson
Rickey strongly approves of this blog and advises that you govern yourself accordingly.

The profile picture alone is worth the price of admission!

The Ominous Comma is not so ominous once you get to know it, in fact it is pretty non-ominous deep down! :)
CrummyJoel
I think Brent could pass this off as an apostrophe rather than a comma, but it's great nonetheless.
Thaddeus Stanley
This blog is better than online dating. Goodbye Janet the 400 lbs shut in!
Rickey Henderson
Rickey heartily approves of this blog.
J
always a pleasure to stop by. creative, witty and downright funny.
Rob Kroese
I'd say it's more of a foreboding harbinger comma, but whatever.
Arcticulates
Outrageously funny blog! I love it!
I especially liked the Buck stops at last! Too funny!
excerpt: "I am not impressed with the flippant and frankly irresponsible tone you have taken in your self-proclaimed Economic Recovery series"
In my opinion I think your economic Recovery series is fantastic, doesn't do a thing for the economy, but who cares, laughter is so loud who can concentrate on such silly things as a Economy Crisis!
Wonderfully funny blog! Made my day start with laughter!
RMK
Craptastic! No. No. It's funny. Read it. Stinker.
The Minimalist
Very funny music blog!
Garnzo
Great blog. Some of the smartest writing I've seen so far.
Robin Easton
This is funny site and yet it also delivers some helpful advice (believe it or not). LOL :) I like the dry calmly contained wit; it cracks me up because Brent writes almost as if he were completely "above" such nonsense as humor, which makes the writing all the more hysterical. Excellent Job!! Very sophisticated humor.
JD
far far funnier
than "The Ominous Question Mark"
Tricia
Just a brilliantly funny blog. I really love the originality that this blogger brings to the humor blog genre. If I could give it an 11 I would!
Joseph Qelqoth
The Ominous Comma is bloody awesome. That is all.
Michele
Very funtastic blog! Super funny.
LOBO
Because Brent is an evil genius, I gave OC and DC the absolutely worst rank possible: 10.
Unfortunately it turns out that 10 is GOOD.
Do you now see how evil he is?
(Thanks for the laughs Brent! Are Michelle Woodwart and Robbay dead yet?)
:)
Crissy
great writer.. a must see blog of problematic and stress people.. thanks for the laughter..
Laurie
Love your Buck-O-Quests. Keep it up!
horatio salt
ominous comma deserves a fully erect exclamation point!
Don Lewis
What can I say? I already gave him an award. Be pretty pissy if I gave him a 3 now.
One of the top 5 funniest blogs on the net. All the time, every time.
Static
I give it a two thumbs up and the following Kraptastic review;
Very funny blog what with it's ambulation-impaired Armed Robbery Accessory Market and Dr. Toboggans well groomed mustache. It is a must read. GO THERE NOW! I demand it.

Hi Brent,
thanks for adding me to your friends. I do enjoy browsing through your blog! Your blog is both entertaining and informative.
I hope you could find time to visit my blog. Please be kind to take some moment and provide me your feedback for poetry4kids:-).
Have a great day,
Milou
Vex
And just how many mayonaise enemas have you had to know your blog is funnier than one? Hmm?
;)
Joshua
Ha! Good stuff. Very entertaining. Downright clever.
Joshua
Good things. ANd may I say, perfect tagline-- "More fun than a mayonnaise enema". Keep up the good work
Dr Heidi
Brilliant and funny. Highly recommended.
Mimi
You have a great blog. It really made me laugh!
beinki
Good stuff Will you still be blogging once you've started writing for Leno and Letterman?
Jane Turley
Wow!I'll have to give you a 10 just for your muscular photo; I had to change my knickers even before I got the plastic sheet out. The gags aren't bad either. Hard to believe you were in the armed forces, (although yes I admit there is a lot of comedy in American military tactics.)Did you blast the enemy with your wit or did you just have a tank with extra long makeshift gun like Donald Sutherland in Kelly's Heroes? Hmm.. I can see it now Brent Diggs astride his gun.... by the way what was it you were clasping out of sight in your delightful muscleman shot.....
BD
What can I say, Brent. Simply outstanding! Not only are you an excellent writer, you've managed to toss in the right doses of sarcasm in all the right places! Someday, when I get going on that elusive blogroll I've been procrasting about...I'd like to add "The Ominous Comma".
You wouldn't mind, would ya?
Btw, You have my permission to cast my vote for Huey-we can't have him fading into outer space now, can we???? And do remind him that many of us are still waiting for our new drug-:) Gotta go play chef now. Have a fantabulous Christmas!
eurica
It is nice to read a blog on humor that is not a collection of jokes that has been sent out on the www. As for this blog, I had to read it all. Could not put it down until I read it through ! Honestly... I enjoyed this blog and the writing style.
Robbay
Very nice site I will visit as often as possible.
Anemo Eolic
Still chuckling over the buttvertising and your inception of gutvertising. I do believe pregnant women can fall into this category, but only for a limited time. Lets just say SALE time. :-) thnx for the chuckle.
carrie
I'm always up for some good humor...great site and thanks for adding me to your list of friends, I will do the same for you...

Michele Woodward
Really witty and fun! I'll be back!
Barb Cooper
Loved this blog. Although I refuse to subscribe to anything (too much pressure) I actually tried to subscribe to THIS blog but the subscription via e-mail feature doesn't actually work. It's the only thing about this blog that doesn't work, on many, many levels. Very funny stuff.
Wolfram Donat
Great s*** here. I must read further, but I must also get back to work. I'll be back.
Sand
Pure genius!
Dr Heidi
This is a wonderfully witty blog. The "generic child care" post had me giggling to myself for several minutes.
Well done!!!
Shirley Gibson
Funny,clever,intelligent, full of wit and sarcasm. I loved it.

Hi Brent :)
You make Jim Carrey look serious. LOL
Cindy
Very smart and humorous blog!
Theresa Hall
Now I completely understand to reason your avatar is kinda upside down. You're funny. Thanks for stopping by. :-)
keli garson
What a clever little blog, and so witty too! Any blog that makes me jealous of the author's writing skills is top-notch in my book. Worth reading!
Gerri
I love witty humor! Great job with your blog.
Em
Downright witty.
It's great. I need some fun today ...
