If you're writing a complete sentence/thought in parentheses, I prefer it to stand alone.

So no sentences in parentheses is the final edict?

It's my final edict, anyway.

But still. No one TOLD me.

That's a pretty big thing to forget.

houldn't this article at least gloss over things like the 1978 Superman movie? Never mind the serials, or Green Hornet or the Batman TV show or earlier movie? Tarzan, et al? There was an internet in 1992, because I wasn't the only one on it in 1987. And there were comic fans with me too.

Is the second page worth reading? Because the first page made me roll my eyes so hard I have a headache now. So much wrong there.

He is getting his permit on Monday (given that he passes the written), so it isn't like it is happening tomorrow. But I have been trying to figure out how to get him wheels. I'll have had a chunk of my debt paid off by the end of the year (not all, unfortunately) and was considering getting a newer to me car and letting him have the Mustang. But the Mustang isn't great in the winter and insuring him on that car is going to cost extra. But now there is this new option, which will work a lot better for all involved. I'm just trying to wrap my brain around it.

No, the second page isn't worth it. I didn't read it in detail, but since he sufficiently failed to make his case on the first, I was only skimming for a miracle recovery. It's not there.

One of the developers is being brilliant and helping me with things I'm doing for the first time. I'm so relieved. And another (who's not competent) has stopped chasing her tail after two and a half weeks, so what we put off from this weekend doesn't need to be put off from next. I do have to have a heavy accounting to boss in an hour and a half, but so far, things are okay.

But, good god, looking over to the email screen and seeing something titled "Sanity Check" does make me panic first, no matter who sent it. It is cool, though. It does prove we were right, and someone else cocked up.

My dash featured a GIFset where Cumberbatch says that the worst thing anyone called him (I guess he forestalls the going on and on and on a a lot) was "bendy dick cum on my baps". I think this raises a fandom responsibility to find a more offensive play on his name and bombard him with it at his next public appearance, no? Who's with me?

So no sentences in parentheses is the final edict?

There can be sentences in parentheses.

If the sentence is complete within the parentheses, it has a period within the parentheses. If it's a phrase that's part of the sentence, the period goes outside of the parentheses.

Argh! Fucking vet I don't know called me after Homer's ultrasound to say there was nothing significant to see, but what was there is probably the chronic inflammation my regular vet predicted, but could also maybe be lymphoma? FOR FUCK'S SAKE. It's not lymphoma, right?

In news about how I don't know what tumblr likes, Vortex, your Bikers Against Child Abuse post has 67 notes on it already, which puts it in the top three I think ever.

Edit: Make that 86.

If the sentence is complete within the parentheses, it has a period within the parentheses. If it's a phrase that's part of the sentence, the period goes outside of the parentheses.

If you have any sentences in the parentheses, does everything in the parentheses have to be complete sentences, and therefore capitalised from the git go? Whereas if it's a sentence fragment (and all alone, like this), there is no capitalisation, and no final period or other terminal punctuation?

Also, calling them brackets is both easier to type and a cromulent alternative, fuck alla y'all.

Jesse, I totally called that one, for the record. It's in my reblog. Right there.
