one '.' is a period. it indicates the end of a sentence.

three '.'s are called an ellipsis and they indicate the trailing off of an idea, as opposed to the finality of a period.

THERE IS NO TWO. two of this '.', two little dots, DON'T MEAN ANYTHING.

people who can't punctuate should DIE.

Right with ya, babe!

Y'know, thinking about it, there should be a punctuation driving test... we could tattoo people who fail, perhaps. 'Will Not Be Permitted Internet Access Without Punctuated Supervision'.

haHAHAHAhahaha.

or maybe just a big X on their foreheads.

cut straight to the chase, i say.

tattooed individual: ::sniffling:: it just... it makes me feel so... worthless.
therapist: ::nodding:: i see. and you feel that this is wrong? you think that you aren't worthless, even though you don't know how to punctuate?

the little buttons for the clique can have, like, a skull and crossbones on them. they can be like the 'fandom is fucking funny' ones for lotr but better.

they can have just two dots, and then some kind of caption, or fifty dots and a caption, like:

..
CONFUSED?

use the right number of dots or die

..............
for every extra punctuation mark,
its perpetrator should receive a rusty nail through the foot
