Change that final period to an exclamation point and you have a reasonably convincing Donald Trump tweet.


HM automatically deletes exclamation points from titles. Was curious (and because it's a lazy Saturday) and found that the title-sanitizer also deletes exclamation points from anywhere in the text (not just the end). I guess that makes submitting a code snippet with `!` a bit tricky.


I guess you can't mention Yahoo! either


Every time I see Yahoo! written with the suffixed "!" I think of every El Reg headline regarding them.

Here's a recent example:

"Yahoo! is! not! killing! Messenger! today!, just! the! desktop! client!" - http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/08/05/yahoo_messenger_is_n...

And here's one from over 14 years ago!

"Yahoo! Rips! Up! Privacy! Policy!" - http://www.theregister.co.uk/2002/04/03/yahoo_rips_up_privac...
