Person 1: Alan Thicke is the sexiest man alive, period!

Person 2: Nice verbal period, moron.

Person 1: Oh, shit, I thought I was typing that sentence to you. I realize writing and speaking are two completely different things, but I often forget which one I'm in the middle of, because I'm a fucking moron.

Person 3: This aggression will not stand! Period!!!

Person 4: Good, I'm glad you used a verbal period, because otherwise the only clue I'd have that your sentence was over would be the pause after your last word. And pauses are so hard to discern.
