No not too much to understand.

I just was in shock at you're total lack of grammer, punctuation, or general idea on how to compose a paragraph.

Or sentence for that matter.

P.S. The space bar is the big one at the bottom.....

Holy christ, I never thought I'd live to see the day when Jordon was correcting someone else in this manner!

It's classic bracket racing, and that's exactly how bracket racing works. You break out, it doesn't count. NHRA has the same rules.

There's been imports on. A honda made it in two different episodes, but let's face it, a 9 sec evo is EXTREMELY expensive to build and maintain compared to a V8. Unfortuantely the import market just doesn't have the reliability of a V8 with it comes to drag racing.

your weird,i know it was not a great paragraph given the point i was trying to get across.I.E: the host talking,and just general talk of the show. Read it again,i used all punctuation and also used the space bar between every word.You know,like its supposed to be used.Not like how you used the return to space 2 lines.You only do that in kindergarten.

P.S i may not be the greatest at typing,but i did graduate from san diego state university with a linguistics degree. If you ever want to learn some really cool stuff.Let me know!

A degree in linguistics, but they didn't teach you proper space seperation after punctuation? Standard english says two spaces at the end of a sentence, and one after a comma. And actually no, your punctuation is incorrect;

You're weird. I know it was not a great paragraph given the point I was trying to get across, IE: The host talking and the general talk of the show. Read it again, I used all punctuation and used the space bar between every word. You know, it's like it's supposed to be used. It's not like how you used the return to space 2 lines, they only do that in kindergarten.

(Don't mind the fact of the miserable run on sentences without rewriting the whole paragraph, here is what you wrote with proper punctuation. Some of the sentences don't make sense at all, just read what you wrote out loud, "It's not like how you used the return to space 2 lines," wtf does that mean?)


OK let's move on, back to PINKS! Who's going?

Using 2 spaces? Actually brainiac, for a linguistics degree, maybe you should know, anything under ten is spelled, rather than using the number for. Because I know you wont understand that let me specify, it would be SPELLED 'two'. THAT you actually learn in kindergarten.

And using two returns, is actually called composing 'paragraphs' something also learned shortly after kindergarten. Much before you're E-Degree at "san diego state", BTW it would be "San Diego".

Okay? KTHXBAI

And come on Yahu I always have proper grammar, and punctuation. Usually.

Jordan, you should have left out every bit of punctuation. You would have had the post's longest run-on sentence ever.
