[2012-Jan-14] Punctuation marks

[Lethal Interjection]

It may interest you to know that sarcasm in English already had a punctuation mark. I can't remember what it was called, but you were supposed to either bracket phrases or accent specific words with ^, ie: Yeah, I ^really^ enjoyed that show.
It was popular for a while, but didn't catch on forever. Much like the interrobang...

This is probably the best one I've seen. The '^' actually gives a pretty good textual representation of the idea of sarcasm. Or at least overt sarcasm.

I actually just saw this on Qi, too.

There's an elephant in the room.

[DonRetrasado]

Oh geez, how will we ever squeeze the giraffe in, then?

[GUTCHUCKER]

Cram it into the refrigerator.
Make sure you take the butter out first, we wouldn't want hoofprints in it too.

[Eisbreaker]

Speak for yourself.
