I love how punctuation can be a word

So someone just said:

well he calls up and he's like, "i'm worried because things are going so well". so i'm like "?"

But then, you see, I did the exact same thing earlier in the conversation:

xxxx: well, i'm quite good... might be getting broken up with though

Will: !

How do you pronounce "?" and "!"?


Oh, and just watched Objects in Space, the last episode of Firefly. It's awesome, but now I'm sad because there is no more Firefly. :-(

I find "?" and "!" to be more eyebrow expressions than pronounced sounds, personally...

Eyebrows, yes, agreed. I always visualize "?" as a *single* eyebrow, while "!" is *both*.

Note the "calls up" in my first quotation. How can you see eyebrows over the phone? ;)
