ita, you win. Trying to figure out the most meaningful multiple interrobang has broken me.

Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'd vote for it, but the interrobang is too regularly repeated. It doesn't fully channel the rage of the statement.
ita, I give you (and anyone else) full permission to modify the punctuation. I'm not too keen on it myself anyway. I think it has one interrobang too many, for starters.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks, ita. Nice to see the flurry has died down a bit.

Interesting that the bandwidth doesn't very closely match the visitors after the spike. Fewer people, but staying longer and reading more, I guess.

Thanks, ita, I love the graphs (but then again, it's me - I would have liked them even if their content were less relevant).

I was just going to remark on that, but ita was quicker. If I only had time to play with those numbers, find correlations and geek out properly.

As far as thread naming goes, I feel like a similar pattern often repeats itself. We have several suggestions of short, clever thread titles. Then someone combines them into one longer, clunkier, less clever title. Everyone but me raves over it. It is selected.
Sigh.
Okay, this is so my personal ish.
Carry on.

You could do a paper ...

But if well combined (which I think this one is, aside from my aforestated interrobang issues (how about ??!?!!?! ?)), wouldn't that rate as cleverer?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I'm with Burrell on the pattern. Although I think this one's pretty much okay.
