Comebacks on this website are always grammar

[Colin@injured]

so is it just me or do 50% of the comebacks on this website have to do with correcting peoples grammar?

 

[The_Big_LePowSki]

*people's

 

[JWeinstock]

you need a comma after so and a comma after me

 

[I_Am_Mod]

First words of a sentence get capitalized .

 

[TACO-DOG.exe]

You need a period to end the sentence in your title.

 

[roddy116]

You need a comma.

 

[.Hugo.]

There is not a space before a period.

 

[Spinoza]

Learn to indent.

 

[james6345789]

You need stronger analysis.

 

[miroz]

You need some sort of preposition after "always."

 

[2_fadez]

The period should have been outside of the quotation marks because you are only quoting the phrase "always" rather than it being a complete sentence.

 

[WillStart]

Periods always go inside the quotation marks.

[drumbumocdp]

I fucking love Chipoltle

 

[2_fadez]

False.

That is for sentences, not out of context phrases. I have a grammar book about it somewhere.

[soulskier]

you forgot your colon

 

[WillStart]

A Google search revealed multiple sources telling me otherwise. However, perhaps your book is Canadian, because apparently they sometimes place periods outside of quotation marks up there.

 

[james6345789]

You're right; the period is inside the quotation marks.

 

[Colin@injured]

Should have just created a thread with lots of grammar problems and let you guys go at it.

 

[I_Am_Mod]

well, this thread describes NS best imho ...

a bunch of guys arguing about their periods ....

 

[I_Am_Mod]

thanks cat-man!

on a period-related sidenote, i stumbled upon this little gem ...

don't ask me what i was googling....

 

[miroz]

I'm proud to claim they're arguing about MY periods! mwahahahaha!

Very well said, pwn.

 

[*TURBONERD*]

I like the Repulsel picture afterward.

 

[freestyler540]

Except for the people who speak french, period is translated to the word "point".

[Pikachu.]

You need a period after sigged.

 

[miroz]

ElGato's post has no subject, object, nor any other word other than the verb he so loquaciously posted. Therefore it was not a sentence and does not require a period.

You should also have "sigged" in quotation marks as you are making a reference to a specific passage. "Sigged" is also slang and for this reason as well should be in quotation marks.

Also, we are apparently icon buddies, but I've been going for five years strong. Get at me.

 

[Downtofilm]

This thread.

 

[miroz]

That's not even a sentence. Get with the program Zac, c'mon!

 

[Mr.Panda]

At least your fucking faunt didn't get bigger.

 

[Mr.Panda]

 

[Pikachu.]

not completley the same!

 

[Colin@injured]

It's so true.

 

[Peter.]

[Milksteak]

UR DUMB

 

[Colin@injured]

Gets guys I am currently taking school online so don't make fun of my grammar. By the online school is the tits I just finished the semester with a 4.05

 

[hot.pocket]

Being able to properly formulate a report is a major part of any science or engineering job.

 

[theline]

True. This is how I respond most of the time:

 

[J_Christoph]

hhahahaha perfect first post

 

[B.Aussie]

Or in Australia where it is called a full stop.

 

[Z-Juice]

It's the only way to try to prove over the internet how much more "stupid and ignorant" the opposition is when two NSers are debating.

 

[Dustin.]

It's not even debate most of the time, it's just 2 stupid people in high school typing random things they are reading from Wikipedia back and forth.

 

[I_Am_Mod]

A debate between 2 newschoolers is very much like a wizard's duel, except they're not wizards and magic isn't real.So what remains are 2 socially awkward dudes yelling jibberjabber towards eachother ...

 

[NotGhood]

i hate that.

 

[Colin@injured]

Ruins my day

 

[bstuck1]

I question your statistics.

 

[Colin@injured]

well I have no way of counting but thanks for questioning me +k
