This.

Is a goddamn interrobang. It is quite obviously the best and most under-used piece of punctuation on the entire goddamn planet!

(Okay, so that’s an image and not an actual interrobang, but I don’t want to risk anyone seeing a big-ass block there. Shut it.)

Point is. Why the fuck are we not using the goddamn interrobang‽

Oh, that’s right, because it’s not on any goddamn keyboards! NONE! ZERO!

This is outrageous punctuation discrimination from the world’s keyboard manufacturers, surely!

But no, it’s not just the keyboard manufacturers that’s to blame! I’m also blaming you, dear reader!

Why am I blaming you‽ Because you are not using the goddamn interrobang, are you‽ No, you’re not!

So I’m asking you nicely, now. No bold, no exclamation marks. Not even any rude words.

Just a question. A request. Between friends.

Use the interrobang. Please.

Do it for me.

Use the interrobang.

‽
