Every December, Trac and Huy roll and fry about 1,000 eggrolls at their Eggroll & Bourbon party. This is where the magic happens.

good lord, this shot from a serious man is beautiful. and the line delivered just afterwards (“but even though you can’t figure anything out, you will be responsible for it on the midterm!”) pretty much just sums everything up at the moment.
ps. it’s my website and i’m allowed to take stuff out of context if i want to.

PUT THE COMMA INSIDE THE QUOTATION MARK.

faithandbegorrah:

THE PERIOD TOO. PUT IT IN. PUT IT IN RIGHT NOW.

And after the closing parenthesis (131-133).

I almost just stood up and screamed this at my class. I wanted to before I saw this post, but now I am really tempted.

Unless you’re British, in which case logic applies in the same way it does with question/exclamation marks. Though with all the American English we tend to read, it looks irritatingly wrong to me nowadays.

I found an explanation for the variance. It’s written by an American (if the double spacing doesn’t make that glaringly obvious).

[I]t seems to be the result of historical accident.   When type was handset, a period or comma outside of quotation marks at the end of a sentence tended to get knocked out of position, so the printers tucked the little devils inside the quotation marks to keep them safe and out of trouble.  But apparently only American printers were more attached to convenience than logic, since British printers continued to risk the misalignment of their periods and commas.

Oh.

THANK YOU. I will go a-killing someday over this.

I get that this is what is supposed to happen, but can someone please explain to me WHYYYYYYYYY? Sometimes it looks weird.
