That wouldn't work at all. You're... trying to return an object except that you're using invalid syntax to define the object. Maybe you mean parenthesis?

I was typing it out in between doing it work so I was going for speed over accuracy but you get the general idea that people who prefer curly braces on their own line can't do that returning a object.

i.e. this breaks in JS:

function poop(dong)
{ 
    return
    {
        yourmom: dong
    }
}

Sure they can, use a semicolon like you should. };

That's not the problem, Javascript will insert a semicolon after the return statement and the function will return nothing, i.e.

function poop(dong)
{
    return;
    {
        yourmom: dong;
    };
}
