but dont you have to rearrange your words then? i cant see where a comma would fit in there
After David Luiz. That way the reference would rather cleary be made towards the first part of the sentence. But I ain't no English major either.

Can you please go check commas in my quotes that are also in people's sigs. Seriously, I think the quotes need to get checked.

I'm not kidding. It has bothered me for a long time. It's in piotrr's sig. It needs checking. I think it may be wrong.
Zach often reminds me of helpless wasps on a hot summer day. Like a poor insect, he unknowingly gets trapped inside the house. He keeps pounding against the closed window not realizing that the window above him is completely open.
A comma is indeed missing here, the correct version would look like this:

Zach often reminds me of helpless wasps on a hot summer day. Like a poor insect, he unknowingly gets trapped inside the house. He keeps pounding against the closed window not realizing, that the window above him is completely open.

That doesn't look right.
Yeah, misplaced it.

Zach often reminds me of helpless wasps on a hot summer day. Like a poor insect, he unknowingly gets trapped inside the house. He keeps pounding against the closed window, not realizing that the window above him is completely open.
Or:

I repaired your quote... it's more of a paraphrase now.
