Grammar question:

I keep being told that punctuation should be inside of a quote, "like this." I hate it a lot and break that rule intentionally most of the time. I wrote a sentence today that made me wonder.

1) is this one of those times that breaking the rule is the right thing to do
2) would it typically be written to avoid that? It turns the statement into a question, which is just silly.

The sentence was: Somebody asked "was this you?"

Not adding a period at the end is killing me.
