theres the dots!!!!
miss dot lady!

why does everyone put dots?
Normally dots are used to carry out a thought that someone knows you're talking about, without really writing it out word for word. Like meowzer's post:

Yeah...I'd replace it
Instead of writing out "yeah, since your tank is leaking due to no fault of your own and worse could come from it, i'd replace it." just put "yeah..." and be done with it lol
There is your grammar lesson for the day
now you know how to use an ellipsis properly!

Cocoacf, HAHAHAH im sorry but i don't think my communications teacher is gonna go for that!! (though i do it all the time)
That's what my high school CA teacher taught me... lol so I'm sure it'll work for you too! If it doesn't shoot me a PM and i'll have her get in contact with my old teacher

"Ellipsis (plural ellipses; from the Greek: ἔλλειψις, élleipsis, "omission") is a mark or series of marks that usually indicate an intentional omission of a word or a phrase from the original text. An ellipsis can also be used to indicate a pause in speech, an unfinished thought, or, at the end of a sentence, a trailing off into silence (aposiopesis) (apostrophe and elipsis mixed). The ellipsis calls for a slight pause in speech."

dont add retard on your thing
Have you ever seen the new movie, The Hangover? In there a guy is talking about counting cards and how it is easy cause rainman did it and he was a ratard.. he pronounces retard ratard. So its was just so funny i say ratard instead of retard now :)

On a side note. I called the fish store today, they are replacing the fish tank. I guess he told my husband he is very unhappy with the company he is getting these from.. not sure if he is having problems with other tanks as well.. hmm
