Reintroduction of the interrobang ‽

[grampahol]

Most of you have probably never even heard of the interrobang (furthermore, probably don't care), but with this team it seems quite appropriate as in Are they F####### CRAZY ‽

The interrobang originally intended to convey a simple message of combining ! and ? 

From Wikipedia: 

Quote:Historically writers have used multiple punctuation marks to end a sentence expressing surprise and question.

Quote:What the...?! Neves, Called Dead in Fall, Denies It (headline from San Francisco Examiner, May 9, 1936)

Invention[edit]
American Martin K. Speckter (1915 – February 14, 1988)[6] conceptualized the interrobang in 1962. As the head of an advertising agency, Speckter believed that advertisements would look better if copywriters conveyed surprised rhetorical questions using a single mark. He proposed the concept of a single punctuation mark in an article in the magazine TYPEtalks.[7] Speckter solicited possible names for the new character from readers. Contenders included exclamaquest, QuizDing,[8] rhet, and exclarotive, but he settled on interrobang. He chose the name to reference the punctuation marks that inspired it: interrogatio is Latin for "rhetorical question" or "cross-examination";[9] bang is printers' slang for the exclamation mark. Graphic treatments for the new mark were also submitted in response to the article.[10]

In the 60's some typewriters even had the intrrobang as one of their keys, but unfortunately it never really caught on, but still lives with an HTML line you can use to insert it into rhetorical questions and such.. &# and 8253 followed by a ; will give you the ubiquitous interrobang. Just click on the view source button when typing and insert it for ‽ 
Why on earth pay Hart 7 MILLION bucks ‽

Yeah, I know.. WHO CARES ‽ (you don't really have to press the view source key..just type it as a single line with no spaces & # 8253 ; )
Maybe the board administration can add an interrobang as an emoji. There are several out there available for download.  

You know..in retrospect the interrobang really doesn't convey a damned thing now does it? In my mind it seemed like a good idea for all of about 15 minutes and then....ehhhh..  Kind of like a Mike Brown speech..
