Aww Moon Master, you'd never let that happen! xd I know you. You're a perfectionist, which causes you undo stress. Plus, you type a mile a minute... quite literally... sweatdrop Take a little break and slow things down, maybe that will help with your headaches. That or a good temple massage. wink

Scooter: I know. Temptation at it's finest! blaugh


Call it an OCD.

Just so you can understand what I mean by making bad things happen by misplacing a comma I have written a sample sentence. 3nodding

Sentence with comma: "launch the nukes? Don't, wait till' I get there!"

Without it:"launch the nukes? Don't wait till' I get there!"

Huh. That's a clever example. 3nodding The only sentence I know is the classic spelling error: The panda eats shoots and leaves.

I hope you're joking about the whole OCD, Moon Master. It really isn't very conducive to your health. As I've said, just take a bit of time to relax. One minor error like that is actually fairly funny! xd In it's own little way I'm sure the crowd would have a good chuckle about it. Plus, you really do need to know how they want it said. 3nodding

Scoot: Hmm, that sentence looks... alright to me. For some unknown reason it doesn't stand out as "wrong" in anyway.

Let me add the commas.

The panda eats, shoots, and leaves.

Ah, that's it. 3nodding Sorry, I guess it was also a punctuation error.

Yup, you need to see all the possibilities. 3nodding

Whoops. It changes it just a little bit, but that's the point I was trying to make.

Ah, okay now I get it. Well, what do you expect from me at like 1am? sweatdrop Good job on the proper punctuation, Duke. 3nodding

What? I stopped correcting minor mistakes ages ago.
PostPosted: Sun Nov 11, 2007 7:29 pm


The correction on punctuation for Scoot's sentence. Though there are many other possibilities on how to say that sentence to have it make more sense to the reader. 3nodding Simplicity isn't always the key when trying to make a point. blaugh

Sometime (well most times) simplicity makes you look like a blabbering baboon.
PostPosted: Mon Nov 12, 2007 3:14 pm


Yeah, I suppose. sweatdrop Though, at the same time sometimes a few words are all that is needed to convey a message. Hence the three word fancy: I love you. whee It's simple and straight forward and gets the point across, don't you think?

True, but that phrase has been overused these days, hasn't it? sad
PostPosted: Mon Nov 12, 2007 4:49 pm


But you can use some more words and convey a strong message like: my heart carbonates and goes through a chemical reaction at your sight. xd

Science pickup lines FTW.

Scoot: Yeah, it has been a little overused...
