    You have to remember that you're allowed to treat forum posts as conversational english,, which is what is generally what's taught to people who learn english as a second language.
    I doubt serialjoe speaks English as a second language. I hate to sterotype, but usually people who use 'u' instead of you, come from the United States. I should probably clarify my point to. I skip over his posts because typically, his spelling mistakes lead me to believe he is uneducated and immature. It's not like you want to type like that when you're telling your boss that you're going to be late. Even when I do read his posts, they never add anything to the topic and could just be taken out of the thread with nothing lost.

    that is all.
    This just proves my point. If you don't put any type of effort into your sentences, people are just going to play you off as someone who's uneducated, lazy, and immature.

    i'd just like to point out that hamie's posts are riddled with grammatical errors.

    shut the fuck up, hamie. if you're goign to cry about people's spelling and punctuation on the internet, then you might consider fucking off of it.

    i am a grammar god. my highschool was extremely well known for producing some of the most grammatically consistent and technically proficient writers in the country. sitting here next to me i have the grammar bible (Writing handbook). it has every rule and exception for every sentence structure and punctuation mark you can possibly make in the language. i have the vast majority of it memorized.

    that being said, do you see me typing anything like i would if i was lookign to get it published? no. that's because the only people that give a fuck about how you type on the internet are insecure little pussies that feel the need to pick at small and irrelevant details. if someone's minor mistakes make their posts unreadable to you, then you have some serious issues that you might need to get some medication for.

    its really cool that you indirectly bragged about being able to speak another language (don't pretend you weren't dropping that in to make yourself look smart). just fucking kidding, it was really gay

    tl;dr:
    eat a dick you little homofag.
    The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the State.

    I'm going to let that speak for itself.

    And no, I didn't add that to make myself look smart, I don't consider myself even close to intelligent.

    fuck bro i dont know how you could even read his post with that run-on sentence in it.

    I'm not a grammar god, but I believe it's A. I'll defer to my betters on this though.

    A

    D110

    When a sentence in parentheses interrupts another sentence, do not capitalize the first word of the sentence in parentheses nor end it with a period.
    also

    D113

    If a colon, question mark, or exclamation point belongs only to the rest of the sentence or to both the parenthesis and the rest of the sentence, place the mark outside the parentheses.
    for other punctuation


    along the same lines, the punctuation USUALLY falls inside quotation marks.

    i.e. Ibby is a "nerd."

    and not

    Ibby is a "nerd".
    The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the State.
