I recently discovered the existence of the Interrobang: a combined question and exclamation mark that renders repetitious usage of the two in succession to denote simultaneous surprise and curiosity redundant. This is the wonderful invention: ‽
It looks something like a blotted up 'P' but would probably be widely used if available on the standard qwerty- and subsequently abused in chats by exasperatingly redundant successive repetition. I can just imagine the "‽‽‽‽‽‽" sequences ruining the purpose of their invention.
It is Caps Lock Day today, in celebration of the most unused key ever. I think my nightmares will soon involve chat screens with the two combined with annoying textese and apostrophe abuses: "R U GNG 2 B WRKNG WITH COMP'S RUNNING VISTA‽‽‽‽‽".
The horror.
