bracketry 

n. A non-existent branch of mechanical engineering that gets little respect; the science and technology associated with designing brackets. (A bracket is a support, consisting of metal or wood, projecting from a wall or the like to hold or bear the weight of a shelf, secure a part from moving, etc.)

Often considered an art form.

Stan: Matt, what do you think of this design?
Matt: I like it, but the bracketry could use some tweaking - it seems like there might be an interference.

bracketeering 

The should-be-illegal overuse of brackets in the written word, used by those who feel they cannot adequately convey meaning with standard punctuation.

Hey, whassup? (When i say 'whassup' i mean 'how's it going' rather than 'what's off the floor'). I'm doing good (well, not too bad) and looking forward (actually pretty keen...) to meeting you guys (and girls) soon (ish).

.....some serious bracketeering going on there.

If Kenney wasn’t such a bracketter he could have solved some of our problems by now.
