I write on the internet without proper punctuation, or capitalization because it is the literary equivalent of casual conversation for me.The same reason he uses hyphens and quotation marks so inappropriately: he's an idiot who doesn't think he needs to learn basic rules of grammar or editing.
That said, it is telling that Bob writes in the same manner as he speaks. He has a tendency to interrupt his own sentences with em dashes.
I believe the em dash typically represents breaking a thought to iterate on it in a different direction. I don't think theyre necessary. I don't know where I would use one. I'm not an english language expert, so take what I say with a grain of salt.
I believe Bob thinks the way he speaks, and thus writes. His work is that of a manic individual blurting out whatever he thinks. However, he interrupts his own thought process to clarify or alter the thought while he is still attempting to carry through on his initial thought.
It's like hes arguing with himself while trying to always say the right thing.
