Slice Corners Exclamation Pointer!!!

The Slice has managed to land an interview with the Spokane emailer/texter who uses the most exclamation points. This Q-and-A was conducted online. To protect him or her from arrest by the grammar police, I will not reveal this individual’s name. In any event, you won’t believe what he or she had to say.

  • Slice: So what’s with all the emphatic punctuation?
  • A: I believe it conveys energy and excitement.
  • Slice: You don’t think it’s sort of like shouting all the time?
  • A: Heck, no!!!!!!!

Question: Are you usually prone to using exclamation points? Do you use more explanation points in your online writing than you usually do for writing on paper?
