Interrobang Awareness

One day in English we were learning a lesson,

Including a neat little mark that combines exclamation and question.

It was a fascinating thing, something I'd never seen before.

My interest had piqued, and I decided to learn more.

What‽ The interrobang‽ There's such a thing as this‽

Where has this strange mark been hiding‽

How has this been something we've missed‽

There are so many useful things this interrobang can do.

It saves characters and space, and looks pretty cool too.

Interrobang awareness, it needs to be raised!

This ingenious punctuation deserves to be praised!

And so I say to you, my fellow YWS goers,

Share and spread the word

And become interrobang lovers!

Funny and dare I say cute. There something just genius with poems that can be short and so entertaining. Good on you to provide this entertainment and hey I'm all for learning new things while having fun. It's time to celebrate your successful work so ready the confetti!
All in all I have nothing for you to fix, no errors to note as of now, make sure to keep up the good work!

Happy review day and stay awesome (since I'm sure you already are :D)

How has this not been introduced to me‽ We can make this a thing. It's too cool to be passed up. *nods* :D

How the heck did you do that?

get the question mark and the exclamation mark together like that.

Ohh. Well that's the interrobang ^_^ I had to go to the special character thing on word to find it.

Cool, thank you. (Adds to her list of interesting symbols).

There must be a missing interrobang key on my keypad. There is none in my memory. There is such a cleverness in the tone and style. If you want, you could continue with more epiphanies for the readers in the future. ;) Maybe a series of vignettes for very new lesson would be interesting.

I know! We need a giant interrobang key. And that's a neat idea, I like it. :)

Anyone know how to make an interrobang on a keyboard?

And I absolutely loved this poem, by the way.

There's no key for it. XD I had to go to the special characters thing on word to get it. And thanks ^_^

Ooooh! Interrobangs! Ha ha, I love it! I even love saying it. Interrobang! Yes, thanks for introducing us, Caylleen, I think this is the beginning of a wonderful friendship. *waltzes off arm-in-arm with an interrobang*

Your quite welcome. :3 Felt the need to spread the word.

Check out my wall! :D It has been interrobang-ified!

So first I like the poem over all and I really like it's humor. It's a light as well as informational which is always refreshing when reading a multitude of dull and depressing poems. Grammatically there are a few things wrong that I think would really benefit the poem by changing. The flow of the poem is a little off and a little inconsistent. To fix this read over your poem a few times and notice words or sections that don't flow, such as "including a neat little mark" could be "that included a neat little mark". When making lists of things use commas first, then a conjunction. "It saves characters, space, and looks pretty cool too!" For example. Obviously a poem is a poem and the liberty of a writtet determines a lot but for now this was a joy to read and I hope to see more!

Thanks for that advice. I'll take a look :)

x3 I liked this poem and that saying something because i usually hate poems i cant stand them i just want to go and scream when i see one lol, but i actually enjoyed this it made me smile and it also made me learn something new. I did not know what an Interrobang was i was just reading it obviously had something to do with writing. so of course i had to go and look it up to see what this thing was. I have got to say that it is interesting :3. Anyway I really enjoyed reading this i think you are great for writing this and it brought something i never knew about to my attention xD its nice to learn something new. :) I wish you look in your writing and continue to do great.
