I use them in at least one out every of ten comments; I feel like most people don't know how to use them, however.
They're useful if you want to link two related sentences; Sausage links are good too.
I got the joke, it was beautiful; meta jokes are some of my favourite.
But the sentences have to be related... Sausages are good; a bun and relish make sausages taste really good!
My mistake, I will try again:
I am linking a sentence with sausage links in it to my next sentence by way of semicolon; Coincidentally, I pass digested sausage links by way of regular colon.
I don't think I'll ever get it.
I never understood the hate for semicolons, until I read Moby Dick.
