I don't know why... but I Heart Dots...
Maybe it's just the way I "hear" myself talk when I write. Sort of like my voice is trailing off... like I'm not done yet...or I need to ponder... or something. And I know that punctuationally speaking, it isn't correct. (Is punctuationally even a word?) I mean, you're not supposed to just add a bunch of dots because you want to...or because that is how you "hear" yourself talk when you write...right?
I also know that the proper name for my little punctuation obsession is Ellipsis Dots. But saying "I heart Ellipsis Dots" just doesn't sound the same.
By the way... I also heart using three exclamations and/or question marks. I don't know why I like it; I just do. I mean, they are not nearly as fun as notating with Ellipsis dots, nonetheless I heart them. I don't even have to be angry to use them. I can just be like, "OMGosh!!! Are you Freakin Kiddin ME??? Congratulations!!! That is soooo cool!!!" Yeah, like that.
And finally, I heart saying 'heart'. I heart you...over there... yeah, you... I heart you!!! And I heart Tangy Taffy!!!...did you hear me???...I heart you too!!!
It's all part of what I like to call Emmaology. It's not meant to be understood... it just "is"...
What about YOU? What do YOU heart???

I heart dots, exclamation marks, question marks, smiley faces...all those grammatically incorrect things. haha! {I also love 'haha' & 'LOL' and ':0P'}
LOVE. IT.
=D
What heart dots? You mean, you love dots? I like that! Heart dots. Anyways, i'm also f0nd of using ellipsis. For me it's like talking sweetly, or being friendly... I use that a lot when i text my friends. If im serious or in a bad mood, i use a period. If i feel excited, i use exclamati0n point. When angry, i use triple exclamation points. If i'm texting a loved öne or a friend, it goes like this. "have a good day..."
I love the idea of "Emmaology"!!! See, we all do it...and sometimes we don't even know why!!! But these can be used in anyway...well almost!!!
I must put up my hand and claim that I use them for just about every thing!!! If I'm surprised, I'll use them, If I'm shocked, I'll use them, even if I'm asking a question, I'll use them!!!
Is that not why those keys are used for anyway??? One is just never enough!!!
I,too, heart dots (which, if you read my blog...you notice). haha!
I heart you, Emma!
And I hear myself talk when I write, too. I also read this one blog from a lady from England and I "hear" her in a British accent. Is that weird? I don't know, but I like it. haha
I heart !!! and :-)
Have you seen the episode of Seinfeld where Elaine is all about using the exclamation point? Hilarious!
I heart the word "hoo-larious". I also heart the strike out feature, although I don't use it as much as I want to.
I heart making kids wear shirts with collars to school. I heart making kids wear their hair down and not up, which is so uncool. I heart making kids wear the jeans today that they only had on 1hours last night.
I heart ruining the life of all teenagers that live in my house.
I heart dots and probably don't even use them right since I'm old and stupid and have no clue as to how the life of an 8th grader should be.
I heart MY LIFE and I really, really, really, heart ur blog!!!???!!!???!!!?@#$%^&*()_
I TOTALLY heart dots... and 2 of these!!
I "heart" all of your posts Emma! you sure brighten my day! :) I didnt know there was a term for this ...... hehe!
I heart ellipsis dots too!!!
And exclamation points!!!
But mostly I love the *asterisk*! Most people pronounce it incorrectly like this: asterick. But *I* know how to say it correctly. It has so many uses but *I* like to use it to add emphasis. Isn't it so fun? I heart punctuation!
Dots are excellent. I heart your stories.
i ♥ symbols & and using the alt codes on the keyboard‼ ☺
