For $30, You Too, Can Never Have to Worry About Getting Laid Again

[Al B. Sure!]

I saw on cracked.com that the sound effect for the door opening is paper being taken out of an envelope.

To be honest, this device really sounds like something up Oerdin's alley.

Poor Albie. So young yet so consistently wrong about... well, everything.

I suspect nothing sounds like it's been up your alley, 'cept maybe cobwebs.

I bet he's wearing eBay 'gently used' counselor Deanna Troi underwear.

Fun fact: This is Marina Sirtis' default expression unless instructed otherwise by the director.

Should the thread title perhaps read, "You too can have to worry about never getting laid again?" This totally seems like one of Oerdinner's typos.

If you're going to try to rewrite things and take about typos you should at least not make typos while you do it. Just saying.

I don't see any typos in his post, but I do see one in yours.

The question mark should be outside the parentheses in his post. Should it not? Also I don't see anything wrong with my previous post unless you're going to get snooty with commas. That would be pendantic though.

You are quite wrong on this point.

Edit: After a bit of googling I am forced to concede that you are, actually, correct on this point. In American English, commas and periods go inside the quotation mark, but all other forms of punctuation go on the outside. I never knew there was a distinction between commas and periods and other marks.

Batting 0.500 isn't bad.

[Aeson]

It's more like shooting .500 from the free throw line though. Or batting .500 in t-ball

I'll take what I can get.

You should use the Shaq line... "I make them when it counts"

I put the punctuation on the outside as default, except where it is directly relevant to the quoted section. Certainly if the whole sentence is the question it should go outside.

I don't care if it's right, it's just what I do.

From what I can tell that is correct for British English.
