  • I’m pretty amazed that people don’t immediately hear the stereotypical doucheyness, as well as the teenager-pandering, intelligence-insulting, terrible messages the moment they hear Nickelback.

    Maybe I don’t hate Nickelback for the same “gut” reasons the internet does, but I sure do hate them.

    There is also a space after an ellipsis… like this.

    Not…like this.

    I don’t care if everyone does it wrong, it’s both harder to read (less functional) and it flies against normal punctuation conventions.

    Also, don’t get your punctuation inspiration from Japanese games. An ellipsis is three periods, no more. Exclamation mark always goes after question mark. (“?!” = correct) Japan adopted our punctuation marks and did it their way. If you’re writing in English, do it the English-language way.
