For example, on my way to work there's a hardware store and the sign out front said "CHAIN WIRE ROPE NOW AVAILABLE". When I drove past that sign I would think to myself "what is 'chain wire' and what would you do with a rope made out of it?" It took me about 6 weeks to realize they meant "chain, wire and rope now available".


That sort of thing has me stumped. Why can't people use proper punctuation?
