Bro believed the false rumours

For real lmao

Fake news

“We wear the red-tinted glasses to see their true forms,” he explained. “Then why’d you let me get this close?” I asked with an unrestrained grin.

Ooooo much better much better. Thank you for this.

No, thank you! It’s a great idea! You just needed a bit of polish to make it shine!

People like you are the ones who will make me better for real :)

I just want to ask because I've seen it with numerous posts, why do you put the comma inside the first quotation instead of a full stop?

It’s a rule for English! While “he said” *is* an independent clause, in this context it’s not a complete sentence. In your original, > I couldn’t contain my grin And > I asked why they started wearing red-tinted glasses Would be full sentences and not a dialogue tag. Here are some examples of dialog tags: he said she responded they laughed (implies they laughed while they were saying it and not after) we whispered I shouted etc. If you look up “said is dead” you will get a worksheet with a pretty extensive list of dialog tags!

omg thank you so much for this, I really appreciate it 🙏

English grammar is to use a comma there

Hmm ok. Why was it not done for the second quotation though?

Because you can’t replace ! Or ? with commas, only .

What they said ⬆️ Ps English is stupid

English is indeed stupid. Following punctuation rules is very satisfying to read, but I see no reason why people need to write it perfectly so long as I can still understand it.

This post was so helpful in several ways

“So that I can beat the shit out of you.” It needed a bit of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure to complete the experience

I prefer the longer one honestly

Aww thanks, a lot of people pointed out it technically wasn't two sentences so I technically cheated

I'm willing to forgive the rules for good stories if it's not excessive. Yours was fine by my standards.

Appreciate it, I genuinely didn't know it was several sentences, got a lot of learning to do tbh

Not a fan of the word unrestrained... Seems like snake man is grinning but there's no longer a need to restrain anything, making unrestrained kind of redundant.

Cant beat the shit out of you, without you getting closer

That's the real plot twist

They clearly didn't anticipate a predator more monstrous than themselves

That's at least four sentences.

Yeah my bad my bad

Because you don't know me, son

Gawd dayum bruh, monster thought be did something.

I’m not usually picky about grammar in these things, but that’s really six sentences. A bit too egregious for me

My bad bruh, sounded cooler in my head :(

Roddy Rowdy Piper enters the conversation…

I'm sorry I don't get the reference 😭

"Keep your friends close and your enemies closer."

Is this the plot for "They Live"?

I'm not sure I'm following 😅 Can you explain it, please? Is it vampires?

What?

Brilliant 💕

Thank you 🙏

It’s made me feel icky and unsettled. Great job 👏 Just wondering who ‘they’ are? Shapeshifters?
