Pondercation Point
the pondercation point is a punctuation mark that fills a critical need in written communication. in spoken word, inflection and tone are used to indicate inquisitive statements. in the written word, however, there is no official punctuation mark to delineate a statement intended as a question (e.g. “i wonder if beverages will be provided.”)
with an increasing amount of communication being conducted in written word (e-mail, chat rooms, instant messaging) the need for greater clarity in punctuation drove research grammarians at the “toughest guys in the world” think tank in provo, utah, to develop a new punctuation symbol using existing punctuation available on a typical western keyboard.
the pondercation point is represented by the combination of the ~ (tilde) and the ` (apostrophe), and is used at the end of inquisitive statements that require an answer from the recipient. therefore instead of saying, “i wonder if you are lying to me, -sshole?” intent is better indicated with the pondercation point: “i wonder if you are lying to me, -sshole~`”
the pondercation point in use:
– perhaps that happened because you tried to retread my monkey~`
– i wonder if your problem is that their reaction is fueled by the blood of christ~`
– i thought you were going to kiss my black -ss~`
