Dunno. The guy was 60+, survived a heart attack at a laundromat, supposedly, and he also said that he still had 20/20 vision. It's almost like I was talking to someome from a super race.

Dunno why you're so anti-comma, but I fixed it for you. Also, there are no spaces in between the elipses. I will let you fix your other error.

Bigitty bigitty booyah!

First of all, "in-between" is a compound word, and therefore requires a hyphen.

Secondly, I only see one ellipsis, not two, so why are you referring to it as if it were plural? You also misspelled "ellipses".

Depends on your source, I suppose:

In Between | Definition of In between by Merriam-Webster

I've seen it both ways.

Misspelling due to being on phone where it's impossible to get anything done. I get dial-up speeds. Could've waited until I got home to post, but I took a risk like that.

Also, that last period of yours belongs inside the quotes. I have mentioned the quotation rule to you before -- shown you verified examples, even -- yet you continue to rebel against it.

I got man-hands and an iPhone with a cracked screen, so y'all can all go **** yourselves. I save my impressive grammar for easier devices and more worthy audiences.

I hear it's a lot easier when you just use your own hands.

I should probably clarify that I'm a mutant... Unfortunately, my only super power with these things, thus far, has been my ability to consistently win the Hey-Chelsea-C'mere-and-Let's-See-Whose-Hands-Are-Biggest-Game with my husband's friends. (Which isn't nearly as violent of a game as I'd prefer.)

Well if any of his friends beat you, you can use your mutant strength to rip his hands off and keep them for the next opponent.

No mutant strength, just mutant hands. I can do one hell of a bitch slap, though, for what that's worth.

But most sources use a hyphen, so I consider your assertion to be dubious.

Incorrect. There are two different standards that apply to non-quote punctuation within quotes: the American rule is to put them in the quote, whereas the British rule is to keep them outside. The British method makes more sense, as far as I'm concerned, so that's what I generally use -- especially when it pertains to in-quote punctuation that is not appropriate to end the actual sentence, such as a question mark at the end of a non-question.

You know I had to, right?
