    Exclamation marks have never been my vice!
    They just make me seem too enthusiastic or that I need to chill!
    I've been cutting down on my emoticon usage lately, I'm a grown woman I shouldn't
    need to use emoticons to balance out the seriously bitchy comment I just sent to you :)

    or the "dot dot dot" at the end of sentences. Don't know what it's called, here's an example."OMG i'm sooo random..."

    why can't they just use a full stop?

    because it doesnt mean the same thing

    a full stop means the end of a sentence

    a lipsis (3 dots in a row) means there is more to follow

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,512 ✭✭✭Ellis Dee


    ¡¡¡ You'd really be pissed off if people were posting in Spanish!!!

    ¡¡¡ Then you'd have inverted exclamation marks at the beginning of the sentence as well as ordinary ones at the end!!!:):):)
