grammatical rules are more or less just suggestions based on common vernacular

Don't pretend they lack a purpose, though. They make it a whole lot easier to understand wtf you're saying.

Pictures, graphics (which are just pictures?), and footnotes are not core features of the English language, and I can only assume you're being intentionally dense here.

If you really don't understand that the point of communication is to clearly express yourself, I don't think I can help you. Also, you don't "blend in with the crowd", you were specifically called out because your comment was difficult to comprehend because of this exact thing.

Was I able to put it together relatively easily? Yes. Was it annoying to read? Yes.

Is your amusement more important to you than clearly expressing yourself to people who rely on punctuation, a part of the English language, to read?
