Question Mark?

A humerous phrase added at the end of a question on instant messengers, SMS/Text messages, e-mails and any other form of informal electronic communcation.

Electronic equivellent of a raised eyebrow and chin stroke when asking a question physically.

Tell me, do you buy all of your lingerie from a second hand store question mark?

beg the question

Phrase that is now used instead of "raises the question" due to the fact that the true definition is unintelligible to most people, and has little to do with an actual question.

Best not to use it at all, as you will either sound ignorant to geeks, or geeky to regular people.

Common (wrong) usage:
That really begs the question, why did she do it?

Geek (right) usage:
I'm cooler than you, because you aren't as cool as me.
- beg the question -

loaded question

A question that has a hidden purpose behind it's asking. The questioner will usually ask the question to find something out without blatantly asking.

"Hey John, was Chrissy at Matt's house yesterday?"
"Yeah, they're going out... That was a loaded question, wasn't it?"
"Yeah, and thanks."
