The Facebook Exclamation Point

Sign in to disble this ad
I just became friends on Facebook with an old high school friend. I just noticed that every single one of his status updates, without fail, ends in an exclamation point. No exaggeration. I've noticed excessive exclamations with other people as well. Is the exclamation point the new period or what?

What really bothers me is people liking their own stuff. Then posting a comment on their own stuff.

Did Seinfeld do a bit on excessive exclamation points? This isn't a bit. Just an observation.
