The sarc mark is probably my favorite. However, what I really liked was the link in the article to the article about blowing on old Nintendo 64 cartridges. That was something I used to do lol.

I have to admit that just from the name alone the Interrobang has a lot going for it . I have often ended a sentence with "?!" or with "!?" depending on whether it was mostly a question or mostly an emphatic . But this mark cleverly combines them both so there is no distinction . They happen with equal importance which makes it it's own unique punctuation ...

I don't know where you saw that link DS . This may be an example of one of those special links which follows you around wherever you go [based on your past linking history] . The link I noticed was this one :Whats the Difference Between Naked and Nude?

OK , as a former tech I would not recommend that procedure unless you are desperate for time . We professionals have our own secret methods for cleaning contacts that do not involve bodily fluids !

That does seem to be the consensus. Wish I knew that when I was a teen.
