While going through OCS as punishment for some small mistake I was required to type a perfect letter, in military format. A minimum 1000 words w/ perfect grammar, no spelling errors and no erasers on an old Remington typewriter. I was up all night and a nervous wreck but ultimately completed the dang thing just in time for 4:00 A.M. PT. That was punishment!

I think you have to go well south of undergraduate to find the age at which that kind of punctuation would not result in a rebuke.

I'm thinking aged 10 or so for get's, it's/its and random capitalisation.
