New textual punctuation
Never before seen grammar*...Have you noted, dear readers, one of the new textual punctuation techniques that the kids of today are using?
It is to place a period after each word in a given sentence. This full stop functions as a hammer to bang home the seriousness, gravitas, power of the utterance.
Check out this example from the infamous website, Texts from Last night...
"Best. Roommate. Ever."
Which in modern textual grammar is bigger ups than "Best roommate ever!!!"
*Save for possibly in a telegrams.
