Thanks for the help. The double-results thing was my copy error, it's not like that in my essay. You've gotten me addicted to the word superfluous. I just like to vary my thank yous, lol.
EDIT: And just to check,:
The comma goes after the quotations, correct? Thankyaw. EDIT2: I think that in "If they had only observed the theme 'dangerous actions may have dangerous results', that...", that there is a comma needed after the word "theme", because the sentence still works without the "dangerous actions may have dangerous results", and that putting commas around it sets it off. Like when you give a name 'I, Jeff, give...", etc. |

I'm pretty sure the comma goes before the quotation marks. |

Looks good to me. Check with the others first, but I'm pretty sure that's right. |

"OMG Gel iz reviving teh topic ahgan!" Yup. Two questions on an essay I'm writing about Romeo and Juliet por favore.
Please just tell me if I used that semicolon properly.
I've used words starting with 'accept' around five times already, can you please tell me how to rephrase that so I don't have to use accept. THANK YOU! |

Semicolon is fine. You're using Word? Right-click -> Theasaurus. |

I'm having a debate with a fellow... Do you capitalize the word queen in this sentence... "The bed is fit for a queen." |

STUMPY WAS RIGHT. HIS TOUCHING SOLILOQUY HAS MOVED ME, TRULY A MANIPULATOR OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. I HAVE ALLOWED HIM USAGE OF HIS PREVIOUS ACCOUNT. EHRHRHRHRNGGHH LC is the best and brought back my embarassing sex tapes. | |

HAHAHA, FUCK YES! This situation is hilarious to me because the person I was arguing with is 49 and is president of a stock broker company. |

Lmao. May I ask, how did you get into an argument with this man? Is he related to you? Otherwise it may be a little creepy. |

I met him on Myspace. He promised me free candy so I'm meeting him tomorrow at the McDonalds. Alone. Naked. P.S. Yes, he's related to me. And I'm still meeting him at McDonalds. Alone. Naked. |
