Word Sense

I was told about the following site which has lots of interesting rules to quote against those bigots of grammar!

Prepositions are not words to end sentences with.
The species was conspicuous by its absence.
Avoid alliteration. Always.
Avoid cliches like the plague (they are old hat).
Employ the vernacular.
Eschew ampersands & abbreviations, etc.
Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are unnescessary.
It is wrong to ever split an infinitive. To boldly go....
Contractions aren't necessary.
Foreign words and phrases are not apropos.
One should never generalise.
Eliminate quotations. As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said: 'I hate quotations.
Tell me what you know'
Comparisons are as bad as cliches.
Don't be redundant; don't use more words than is absolutely necessary; it is highly superfluous.
Profanity sucks.
Be more or less specific.
Understatement is always best.
Exaggeration is a million times worse.
One word sentences? Eliminate.
Analogies in writing are like feathers on a snake.
The passive voice is to be eliminated.
Go round the barn at high noon to avoid colloquilisms.
Even if a mixed metaphor sings, it should be derailed.
Who needs rhetorical questions?
