== On a scale from zero to mad as a moonbat... ==
Fun fact: some slides for a (scientific) presentation I was watching earlier today had, at one point, 17 exclamation marks in a row. Just a little while later, there was a slide titled "Mental break" - intended to recapitulate what had been discussed so far, but in light of the 17 exclamation marks all I could think was that it might well have been a very different kind of mental break...

The reason it's attracted so many views is because of an internet meme, viz. the idea that anyone who use a lot of exclamation marks in their talking on the web is regarded as a troll. MyOwnBadSelf (talk) 00:32, 18 November 2015 (UTC)

To elaborate further: [1]. Adding a mistyped '1' on the end intensifies it further. MyOwnBadSelf (talk) 03:24, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
