5. The fact that you even have "go to punctuation"...
means that something is quite seriously wrong with you.

My recommendation: spend two hours in the hot tub.

7. Me too. But I remember putting together a newsletter for an organization. I had to
add all the submission together. Everyone had different favourites where punctuation is concerned. Some used commas often, some used semi-colons. I am bad with using exclamation points too. I often use three at a time.
