What is Steve Eck doing living in a dorm room?
For side chick.
-
Cause Steve is a weird [redacted]. Seriously. And I think a sidechick is prolly the last thing that room is used for.
-
Cause Steve is a weird [redacted].
never met him, but i love him a little bit.
-
I read when this first happened that he keeps that room for when he's "working late".
-
I have several buddies that played for him @ South and the general concensus is that he's weird as hell. Great guy, just weird as hell.

does period go inside or outside? I need a ruling here.

Pretty Trim is right.

What is Steve Eck doing living in a dorm room?
There were faculty and coaches at Coffeyville who were also 'RAing' on the side and lived in the dorms -- I'm guessing they didn't have to pay rent & could be close to the drive-bys when they happened.
-
The firefighter sustained minor injuries after helping Eck tackle a man suspected of burglarizing Eck’s HCC dorm room, where the coach sometimes stays the night to keep an eye on his players, according to Hutchinson Police Detective Thad Pickard.

I actually used to be an "inside" guy, but changed to "outside" a year or so ago after researching it a "bit".

I'm very sure that it is inside, but I will need SkinnyBenny to confirm.

"inside."
-
I think it goes inside. I really don't like it inside. So I put it outside, unless I type a quote that has a punctuation.
-
I am under the impression that it goes inside most of the time but there are instances when it goes outside and this happens to be one of those instances.
-
Sometimes both, like if I was quoting a question. For example:
Tortuga's really making the most of summer break. Staying up all night, doing important things like asking me "does period go inside or outside?". That's the Summer of Tortuga.
-
Boom, mind blown!

Not everyone gets a" summer of." I detect a ton of resentment.

Can't you see from this example that, at least for this scenario, outside the quotes just works better? "Summer of" isn't a sentence. "Not everyone gets a 'summer of'" is a sentence.
And yeah, eff you and your summer.

This is a textbook example. As in, it should be used in some sort of textbook it is so good.
-
One of my best buddies played for hutch cc this past year and I heard a lot about Eck. The "he was there to keep an eye on the players" line should be more like "he was there just to save their asses multiple times and not give a crap what they do for the most part".
-
I had a "summer of" and it was great, but it was gone before I realized that was as good as it gets

In or out actually depends on what style you are writing. If you are using the AP stylebook you must have the punctuation inside the quotes. MLA allows the punctuation to be moved outside of the quotes. Most people unintentionally attempt MLA style. Obviously journalists or people who went to J school use AP style.

The better question, which remains a mystery to me..."why in the hell are there multiple writing style guides?".....

If that is a better question and remains a mystery to you, then you are being dumb or are in fact a dumb person.

I'll reserve the right to determine what remains a mystery to me.
Multiple writing style guides? Mysterious
Belief in a higher power? No mystery, we're all just worm food in the end.
Why Miami never contacted Frank? Mysterious
People addicted to eating corn starch? WTF, a mystery
Tortuga's intellectual capacity? Not a mystery, obviously a shallow genetic pool

tortuga is being a meanie.
there are multiple style guides because no english-speaking organization has ever achieved enough popularity and arrogance to dominate the conversation regarding the proper manner to organize and formulate written communication in english. the competing "dictionaries" (literally, an ary of diction), style guides and grammar handbooks are no more than the collected opinions of a person or group of persons regarding an effective means of english communication. they seek to impose either a (purportedly educated and benevolent) stylistic dictatorism, or the preserved modalities of the communication of a given time and place, on present and future english-language communicators.
irregardless. eff 'em.

Exactly. Could care less what some descriptive bunch of grammar snobs conversate about all day. If you snuck a period inside the quotes, good for you.

Grammar snobs use MLA, journos are by no stretch of the imagination grammar snobs. BTW technically you'd be sneaking the period outside the quotes, not inside.

Ha, I like where you went with that.
My point was not to criticize people who cannot speak English, or "Americun", only to point out that it makes no effing sense from a practical perspective for every god damn group of intellectuals to create their own style guide....just arrogance and an attempt to make them seem more institutionally relevant.
Now we can all return to loving each other.

Guys, one of my grad school professors confirmed for me that the period goes inside the quotation.
-
I've decided I'm going to do whatever the eff I want with my quotations and punctuation, regardless of what I read here.

I've met some pretty unintelligent grad school professors....just saying...
-
it can go inside or outside
and I have an english degree guys
-
I'm really starting to hate myself for continuing to read this thread.
-
so this mizzou guy huh? wow
-
I think we should just start doing it both inside and outside. You know, just to be safe :dunno:
For example:
The thread was going fantastically, until Steve Dave got to thinking "I'm going to try to derail it by talking about some mizzou guy nobody has ever heard of.".

Yeah. My close circle of friends and I have recently nicknamed SD "threadkiller". Tough call but it had to happen.

I get a lot of chuckles out of MIR ruining people like that. oh man.
