THE START OF URBAN DICTIONARY! You finally made it. Well done you for finding it!

"!" also has an alternative use of making a point in grammar seem really important.

"In the beginning the lord created "!".
Then he added more definitions."

"Graham uses lure!"

! - when placed in front of a sentence, makes that sentence a sarcastic remark.

This pre-emoticon arose out of a need to clarify the concept of sarcasm in statements on the internet that previously could not be expressed with only plain text.

It provides exclamation in front of the sentence as a precursor to the tone of the sentence to come.

Origin:

It comes from the programmers language meaning NOT - the opposite of what its modifying.

Example:

You and your friend are playing horse. You make a difficult shot and your friend says, "What an easy shot." He shoots and misses. You say, "Man, you made that shot no problem."

The fact that you are given background story makes it easy to spot the sarcasm, but this is not always the case on the internet.

To make that last comment sarcastic in a situation where there is no background you would simply use:

!Man, you made that shot no problem.

A “?” that has been straightened out—what awaits those who continue to trust and honor God in spite of the circumstances or events they don’t understand in their lives.

God’s goodness will turn your ?s into !s, be it an anointing, healing, or upgrading, because your problems are often not setbacks but set-ups for your next level of growth.
