I didn’t know the interrobang has existed for so long.

If I had a nickel for every time I saw an interrobang today I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird it's happened twice right?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

when it comes to interrobangs the more the merrier!?

You didn't even do it. Are you a dingus‽

[–] captainlezbian 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They did my phone shortcut for them. Does that even count‽

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Who knows‽

[–] surewhynotlem 3 points 11 months ago

I got that reference

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I kind of thought the opposite. I had assumed it was actually just an older thing but fell out of fashion, but apparently it was "invented" in the 60s which surprises me

Not on Typewriters until 1968 but this article was published on October 16, 1918.

what would have stopped you from typing an exclamation point, cycling back one character, and then adding a question mark‽

[–] surewhynotlem 2 points 11 months ago

Does it surprise and excite you ?!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

Looks like a misshapen question mark to me. Looking at the "f"s it seems like the ink is bleeding/smudging in parts

I think this attitude did more bad than good. It caused people to concentrate on pandemic death numbers and even conclude covid is not worse than flu (even though death rate was 10 times higher than of flu).

What covid did though, besides killing some people it fucked health for a much larger number of people that survived it.

Regarding the 'attitude', you could be right. And this IS m/Internetfuneral, so...
The one sliver of silver lining I see with post-covid syndromes is that it's opened the discussion about other well recognized but generally ignored post viral syndromes. "Had the flu, now I have this cough that's been persisting for a month.", etc. There's serious talk now in the scientific community about Chronic Fatigue/ Chronic Myalgic Encephalopathy having a viral, or rather post viral origin. Science and understanding move forward, but the pace varies.

If you don't like wearing a mask, you'll hate wearing an intubater.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

Wait for casket then display body with mask just to spite em.
