Oh Noes!

I'm been attacked by an angry mob of /talkers! Save me! Save me!

Been attacked by anyone from talk is like been savaged by an angry mollusc. Half of them can't string a coherent sentence together and the other half don't know what a sentence is....

*pokes stick into /talk again to watch the angry ants scurry....*

An ellipsis has 3 full stops, not 4.
Just saying.

Actually
three periods denotes a long pause, while four means a long pause that ends up being the end of the sentence.

You see what I mean... don't you? No, I suppose you don't....

An ellipsis ending with a period to denote the end of a sentence?
That would be a paradigm of syntactical ugliness, and you fucking know it...

Making such a poor analogy
is like attacking a bee's nest without being a honey badger. Or been a honey badger, dunno, I've being having problems with my key-board.
Cheers.

it's funny, because ants ARE molluscs.

I thought the latest qotw was open to anyone, so not quite swarming over here but still.
