GUILTY! Thinks performing mimes should be punishable by death?

13741 It's not fair that women get to play with toys and guys don't! *pouts* lol

13739 I have no toys.

Not guilty. Ever taken photos of your naughty bits?

13733 I guess masturbating to pass the time is out of the question then. (to Kagome)

For US people out there: If anyone can show me recipes for what you call biscuits and for scones then send me the links. We don't have what you call 'biscuits' (that I've noticed) and I'm curious to see the ingredients to see if they're basically the same things. Thanks.

This is a pretty basic biscuit recipe: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/southern-biscuits-recipe/index.html As far as scones, I use recipes from a British cookbook for those, so mine are probably the same as what you'd get.

So you lot use scones as a part of your main meals, like with gravy and whatnot? That is some crazy shit going on right there! You lot are wacky. lol
-
Yes, we are! Batshit crazy, the lot of us! lol

13659 I guess I prefer my women to be of the non-rotting variety. lol Although that one wasn't bad!
-
13650 Still, I prefer non-zombie chicks, because they tend to be easier on the eye when it comes to perving.

I'm not sure if you meant to copy and paste in some of your dialogue as an example, but if so then it didn't work. Either way, I think I understand now what you mean. If you have two - or more - paragraphs of dialogue from the same person, then the quotation mark rules are a little different. You begin the first paragraph with quotation marks (whether you use ' or " is pretty much up to you), but at the end of the first dialogue paragraph, you don't use any quotation marks to enclose it. In other words, you leave that paragraph open. At the start of the second paragraph, you use quotation marks again, just like you did with the start of the first paragraph. Now, if this second paragraph is the last dialogue paragraph, you then finish with quotation marks, thereby enclosing both that paragraph, and the one that came before it. I'll post some nonsense text to show what I mean: To be honest, most people don't do that. Not because you shouldn't, but because they don't know the rules. You may well get people leaving comments to say that you forgot to use quotation marks, but you can rest assured that you didn't, that you did the correct thing. But only if there's no other text of any kind in between the paragraphs! You should keep one thing in mind, though, that you really should try to avoid having great long passages of dialogue only from a single person. Personally, I think two good-sized dialogue paragraphs in a row is enough. You could - and probably should - then break it up with something, even if it's just a small observation of some kind, or simply a comment that the talker takes a deep breath before continuing, etc. I hope that helps this time.
