Exclamation marks are for… exclamations.

Category: Misc / Tag: ,   /

I have to admit that this is a pet peeve of mine ever since hearing RC Sproul rant about it a long time ago. Exclamation marks are for exclamations (Oh! , Wow!, Amazing!) They aren’t for really exciting sentences. :-)

    I can understand getting annoyed by the use of multiple exclamation marks (“Multiple exclamation marks,” he went on, shaking his head, “are a sure
    sign of a diseased mind.” – Terry Pratchett), but who precisely decreed that exclamation marks aren’t supposed to be used for “really exciting sentences?”  Rubbish!!!   ;-D
