For you Grammar Nazis:

http://www.unnecessaryquotes.com/

Found that site a number of months ago- this one was "great"

ha, that site is awesome

I used to work at a real mom and pop golf course as the food and beverage manager. One of the things I had to do was type what each department of the club submitted for the monthly newsletter (on windows 95, mind you). Anyways, there were a lot of unnecessary quotation marks littered throughout the announcements. It drove me crazy, but it would have been really uppity of me to edit them and the woman in the office that proofread my typing would have put them back anyway. The members liked them just as much as the management. It drove me crazy!

examples:
Tournament scheduled for April 15th. "8am shotgun start"
Monthly Buffet is next Thursday: "Fried Chicken and Mashed Potatoes"

you get the idea.

I'd hate to know what the "Fried Chicken and Mashed Potatoes" really are.

that's what i said!

That is wonderful.

This one shouldn't be there. Budweiser should always be referred to as "beer."

i thought of the beer thread when i saw that

but the bottom gets me more:
stop here and "save"

This is "amazing."

what is budweiser really? we may never know.

Well if you are in Utah I think you should be able to get away with saying. The "Beer" here is great

Quotation Marks

Rule 1. Periods and commas always go inside quotation marks, even inside single quotes.
Examples: The sign changed from "Walk," to "Don't Walk," to "Walk" again within 30 seconds.
She said, "Hurry up."
She said, "He said, 'Hurry up.'"

Rule 2. The placement of question marks with quotes follows logic. If a question is in quotation marks, the question mark should be placed inside the quotation marks.
Examples: She asked, "Will you still be my friend?"
Do you agree with the saying, "All's fair in love and war"?
Here the question is outside the quote.
NOTE: Only one ending punctuation mark is used with quotation marks. Also, the stronger punctuation mark wins. Therefore, no period after war is used.

Rule 3. When you have a question outside quoted material AND inside quoted material, use only one question mark and place it inside the
quotation mark.
Example: Did she say, "May I go?"

Rule 4. Use single quotation marks for quotes within quotes. Note that the period goes inside all quote marks.
Example: He said, "Danea said, 'Do not treat me that way.'"

Rule 5. Use quotation marks to set off a direct quotation only.
Examples: "When will you be here?" he asked.
He asked when you will be there.

Rule 6. Do not use quotation marks with quoted material that is more than three lines in length. See Colons, Rule 5, for style guidance with longer quotes.

Rule 7. When you are quoting something that has a spelling or grammar mistake or presents material in a confusing way, insert the term sic in italics and enclose it in brackets. Sic means, "This is the way the original
material was."
Example: She wrote, "I would rather die then [sic] be seen wearing the same outfit as my sister."
Should be than, not then.

B, I bet you found this site when you were googling the word unneccesary to spellcheck it.

i'm going to start "using" these

I think this thread needs:

I "don't" get this thread.

well, "fuck" you then

That's hilarious. You'd avoid that place like the plague in case the staff were just pissing in your glass and serving it up to you.

I think B would say there's not much difference
