Interrobang. Now a noun AND verb. Coming to a blog near you.

Interrobang. Wikipedia says, "A sentence ending with an interrobang asks a question in an excited manner, expresses excitement or disbelief in the form of a question, or asks a rhetorical question."


It can also be used as a verb. "THERE ARE ALIENS ON THE ROOF‽" she interrobanged.


Thought y'alls should know.

I'm very fond of the interrobang-- it was only a matter of time before it became a verb! So, what's next? Adverb? Adjective?

Hiya, fellow crusader. I am starting up a networking community for supporters of the LGBT community, as well as readers and writers of LGBT fiction and nonfiction, called Everything LGBT. The blog will discuss LGBT novels, movies, music, rights/issues, current events, etc. I would love it if you would join and share the link with whomever you can. I believe that media will bring the next big change, and I want to help to make that happen. Thanks.
