Excessive Exclamation!!: See you all there!!!

See you all there!!!

I'd like to think the excessive exclamation here is intended to show astonishment if any of the people can actually figure out how to get to the group's new location. I have to admit, though, its the "May I Have Your Attention" part of this posting that really got me laughing.

The Grammar Police

The exclamation point is a punctuation mark usually used after an interjection or exclamation to indicate strong feelings or high volume (shouting), and often marks the end of a sentence. Example, "Watch Out!" A Sentence ending in an exclamation mark is an actual exclamation ("Wow!", "Boo!"), the imperative mood ("Stop!"), or intended to be astonishing or show astonishment ("They were the footprints of a gigantic hound!). Overly frequent use of the exclamation mark is generally considered poor writing, for it distracts the reader and reduces the mark's meaning. And, as F. Scott Fitzgerald once said, "An exclamation point is like laughing at your own jokes."
