Bring back the Interrobang‽
The interrobang was a short-lived fad of the 1960s. Since it does have a unicode representation, and some fonts now include it, is the time ripe to start using it again?

Ups, my first thinking was: what kind of a strange typo did Paul create here? How did he make it? Never've seen this char before, thanks for sharing (I often do use "!?" or "?!")

I think the compound punctuation used in chess notation translates well.
?? = What in the wide wide world of sports is going on here? ?! = I find your statement to be dubious, but not entirely insane. !? = Interesting, but not convincing |
