Semicolons in dialogue
You don't use them?
>he uses punctuation
>dialogue in semicolons
Wow, let's jumble words, so random! lol!

Why do some people think it's wrong to use semicolons in dialogue? They're just used to separate two independent clauses, right?
>having dialogue

You won't find retards like this outside of English literature
If writing well while avoiding arbitrarily decided no-gos is so impressive to you then why don't you go ahead and avoid the letter e in all your writing from now on

I like this kind of sarcasm that states everything that's happening. It's now in every thread, followed by a "lol" "xD". It's really innovative. At least rearranging the words is kind of lit related and sometimes can be witty.
i cant imagine not using semicolons in dialogue.. are you retarded op? every sentence you use is a new distinct thought completely separate from the previous ones?
