stop.

¡ & Carctère de l'ironie

sarcasm and irony

these are not new punctuation marks, they just never really caught on,
in the 60s there were also vague plans for a doubt mark and a love point

not sure how i feel about excessive punctuation. dont think i would ever feel the need to tag a sentence with ['theres a double meaning in this sentence' LOOK FOR IT]... but then i've never used an emoticon either.

wonder what the love point is for... is it like in kindergarten when you say;
'i don't mean to be mean but'.....[something mean].
