Yep, that's about the looks of it.
Idle banter? Asking about how things were long ago? Pick your poison, I could provide either to freshen the place up.

I remember idle banter from long ago as well... Or maybe that's too much to handle...

The idle banter from long ago, was, as I recall, a lot of mental cheese talk from Shadow. But yes, I make useless small talk right now.
I'm certain there were too many commas in that sentence.

Psh, that's nothing, see, look at this sentence, with all of it's glorious, multi-paused, comma-ful glory, and the word that accompanies it.
Bananaphone!

Let me, an honest bystander, count the ways I love thee, ever so sweetly; 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,...
Now that's a lot of commas

Commas are your friends!

Comma abuse is way too rampant these days if you ask me.

meh, overuse is annoying, but I still really like commas.
Dramatic pauses are fun.

Well I won't claim to be a grammatical master, because I'm not. We all make...
...Mistakes.
How was that for a dramatic pause?

^^ Yeah true. Honestly, I don't mind unless someone looks as though they're just throwing random punctuation at the screen.
Like I say, I make a lot of mistakes. That should be obvious since it was me that first butchered the commas up there to spark this discussion.

Ah the wonderful world of writing shows it's ugly side!
I hate when you have to keep rewriting a sentence or paragraph over and over again. For whatever reason, punctuation, grammar, the fact that you just can't get it to sound right.
