How About a New Punctuation Mark?

Do you have any idea what this is?

:sarcmark:

How about a hint?  Oh yeah, that is a really good idea :sarcmark: 

Can I have another one, that last one was so helpful :sarcmark: 

OK, you can have a couple more.

You look great :sarcmark:  Where are you going, gravedigging :sarcmark: 

Nice ketchup stain, it really pulls your entire ensemble together :sarcmark: 

Yes, I present the mighty Sarcmark.  Douglas Sak, a man in need of a punctuation mark to better denote sarcasm in his emails, founded Sarcasm, Inc. in 2006.  Shortly thereafter, the Sarcmark was offered for sale.  Not really a bad idea, is it?

I am always on board when someone is offering up ways to better clarify ideas, especially those of the written variety.  The website claims that the symbol is gaining traction but I must admit I have not seen it being used anywhere.  Except here.  Except now.  Where else on the entire internet could you get such valuable information this easily?  

If you really feel you need this Punctuation Mark in your grammatical arsenal, then I urge you to get over to the Sarcmark website ASAP.  When I came across the site years ago, the Sarcmark cost real money, now it is free.  I suggest you head on over, I would hate for you to send an email to a friend only to have them not realize you were insulting them.
