I beg your pardon?! Ending your sentence with punctuation is something of dignity, correct usage, and not making yourself seem like a fool. BESIDES, punctuation is an aid for the other to decipher what you mean. I read Gemarra and punctuation is a necessity!

So why can't you accept that?! If you don't want people to understand, DON'T WRITE! Lack of punctuation is a form of encrypting your posts, which is NOT the purpose of this forum. GO ON! LEAVE IT!

I'm offended that you took my offense as a simple fact, rather than the multidimensional cry for compassion and understanding that it was.

Pouting is a perfectly reasonable way to express one's disappointment! It's better that screaming and throwing things. I am offended..

I am offended that you voice your opinion that pouting is better than screaming as a fact. When in actuality, many people prefer to scream.

I find it offensive that you use "out of hand," so casually. You should use the phrase sparingly rather than wasting the emotion. Its like a good a good pizza, you don't waste pizza. You eat it slowly releshing the crisp flavor.

What is wrong with pickles? I'm offended that you have a problem with the fruit of the Lord. Have you ever tried a pickel, hmm? Or are you just assuming that pickles aren't the most wonderful thing in the unknown and known universes?

I am TERRIBLY offended that

1. you assume I haven't tried pickes, because of course i have
and
2. I don't LIKE pickles. I like them in tuna salad and egg salad and on Turkey and Ham sandwiches, just not on PIZZA!

I don't like dill pickles but do like sweet pickles and bread and butter pickles.

You accusation was arrogant and a mischaracterization of me! *pthblblblblt!*

pickles aren't a fruit.

I'm offended that you accuse me of being arrogant. I am, indeed, a very caring person. Very similar, in my own way, to the Kool-Aid man.

And once again you have spelt Kool-Aid wrong. I'm also offended that you think that I have to know you really well to correct your spelling. If that is true, than I have wasted my whole life being unusually cruel. I'm a grammar Nazi, cripes!

What, Uncle Orson plays "Love at Home" on the piano and we're all supposed to be friends? Criticism is a normal, healthy part of human interaction, and as a writer you should understand that. Shame on you, sir, for trying to supress the discussion of controversial material.

(This is so fun.)
