The Interrobang‽
I love slang for some reason, and while cruising stumbleupon, I came across the ever-fascinating ASCII Character Pronunciation Guide, which defined many of the ASCII characters and listed all of their nicknames!
My personal favorite was the "Interrobang", which is a multiple character string consisting of both "?" and "!". e.g.
"Just what do you think you're doing, Dave?!"
There seems to be much controversy on the Interrobang Wikipedia page about which order they should go in; "?!" or "!?". Wikipedia even had a cool Unicode character for the Interrobang:
How cool is that‽ Now you can just copy the Interrobang above, paste it in your IM, and impress all of your friends! haha
Anyways, if you wanna look into what characters are called, "double-oh-seven", "bowlegs", or the "Chippendale chairs", check out the guide!
