So just about every author before 1900

'Fuck you,' she shouted.

'Fuck you!'

OP, if you think the first is better you're retarded.

>>9073967
I prefer:
She told me to fuck off in a way that could only be described as middle-fingeringly.

>>9073986
That. Is just. The worst.

>>9073986
Anon, I... I don't want to discourage you, but I kind of feel like killing myself after reading this? Like, I was having a good day, and now... now I want to die.

In the same manner one presents to another the center-most of one's dexterous appendages she delivered a dismissive fuck, myself being bestowed its designation.

>Call me Ishmael! Some years ago - never mind how long precisely - having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world! It is a way I have of driving off the spleen and regulating the circulation! Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people's hats off - then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can! This is my substitute for pistol and ball! With a philosophical flourish Cato throws himself upon his sword; I quietly take to the ship! There is nothing surprising in this! If they but knew it, almost all men in their degree, some time or other, cherish very nearly the same feelings towards the ocean with me!

>>9078003
Almost works. Gives it a kind of shouting sailor-authenticity.

>>9077902
Not sure if you posted Elane just for the pic
or because of the scene where she fights with ther boyfriend
over his use of exlamation points on a note.

Woe betide, putzy, woe be, tide, friend, nay, good friend!

Read some Simenon, guys. Not the Maigret novels, just any other one. Simenon knows how to use exclamation points. It's pretty awesome. Exclamation points, not even in dialogues - only used by the narrator. And the narrator is not even a character, and he's not even describing action or drama. Just some monotonous situation. And every night he would... and his aunt would say... and they never talked about it clearly, yet he could remember... And that was all !
Seriously. Not even kidding. Read Simenon and shit bricks.

>>9077839
same. gave me a boner.

>>9078048
Because of the episode.

>>9073986
John green pls go

>>9073943
Yes! We need to take even more punctuations away from authors! Less options! More autism!

Browsing /jp/ has taught me that exclamation marks make text much cuter.

OP Read Céline's Mort à Crédit one of these days

Look, I don't mind a single exclamation point here and there.

But !! and ?! and !!! or however many more exclamation points you want to add are all literary offenses.
