    Why commas matter:

    “Try burning this one (comma) asshole!” = burn the flag on the shirt

    “Try burning this one asshole!” = I dare you to light this traitor on fire

      Do I get a twofer if I burn the shirt and the traitor at the same time?

      Commas matter, but that particular reasoning sounds more like you’re arguing they don’t!
