Amidus Drexel's Alliterative and Awe-Accentuating Anvil of Random Banter CLXXXVI

[Mercenary Pen]

Parentheses are my favorite punctuation. I like to use them (if you couldn't tell) to interject fragments (and occasionally complete sentences) into my speech to add (semi-)relevant extra information.

I do try and keep them out of my papers, though.

I tend to mix them in with commas and hyphens personally- because that way I can manage more complex sentences without having to rely on commas, or indeed parentheses, recurring.
