- And Finally, Great “Moments” In Superfluous Punctuation is brought to us this week by Fleureme v. City of Atlanta, in which Roodson Fleureme sued the City of Atlanta after a city employee “failed to yield” and “ran over” him on the sidewalk. (Presumably he’s had better days.). Those aren’t my quotation marks; they come to us directly from the Georgia Court of Appeals. In what conceivable universe – or Southern City – is “ran over” some kind of slang or term of art? May we suggest hitting the Honorable Kenneth Bryant Hodges III (a name begging for a wedgie) with a car and enquiring of him whether he has been “run over,” has “kinetically encountered the front bumper of a vehicular transport,” or simply squashed “like” a bug. All that being said, what the hell is a Roodson Fleureme and why is it not legal to “run over” such a thing on sight?
