Goooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Wait, you want me to "Goo!" to your animal shelter? I just don't understand.



Pippi!!!

Apart, Mercy and Pippi aren't that astonishing, but when you put them together, watch out!!! While I know this website is all about excessive exclamation, my favorite part of this photo is "Their Credentials Consist of: Love Love Love Love and More Love." Cat people are awesome.





Lost dog!!!!!!



You'd think that if you could scream "LOST DOG!!!!!!" that loud, you would be able to call your dog from just about anywhere they could have run away to, and they'd hear you. Did you ever think that maybe he doesn't want to come back because you're always yelling?

To be loved!

I laughed out loud with how the exclamation point was dropped on every comment, especially
"MY CORKSCREW TAIL!" Another great example of a person who was missing the period button on their keyboard.

80% off!!!

I was all excited about eighty percent off, even triple exclamation point excited. But, then I saw that it was only on select merchandise, and my emotions totally dipped.

!ATTENTION!

They seemed to be going for some kind of English version of a Spanish exclamation on this one. !Hilarious!

AFFORDABLE PRICES!!!!

Is it really this astonishing that handcrafted jewelry & beads by "JoAnn herself" would be sold at affordable prices? Maybe I just don't know how important this JoAnn lady is, being that I'm a guy and not really plugged into the jewelry world. But, if she's selling her homemade goods in "the living room," I'm going to guess that affordable prices should have been implied in this situation.


Thank you for your cooperation!!!

As if screaming "Thank you for your cooperation!!!" wasn't enough, this medical clinic made sure you would understand by providing the image of two people kind of, almost, nearly shaking hands.

Thank you for coming to work today...!

I've never seen an exclamation point come after such a long pause. Costco seems to be really excited that their employees are showing up to work, but only after they've already finished about half of their shift.

Everything Goes!!!

I know they seem like they really mean it with the triple exclamation point, all caps (except, oddly, for the "i"), and mega underlining, but I can't help but feel that not everything is going to go during this sale in downtown Martinez, CA.

Raffle!!!!! Raffle!!!!!

This one was just too funny. Five exclamation points, twice????? The best part for me is that the raffle itself is so exciting that it gets a total of ten exclamation points, and yet the prize of the "SF 49ERS BASKET" gets nothing.

Turn Lights Off!!



I don't know why, but it cracked me up to picture this person printing out an 8.5X11 sheet with like 50 of these excessively exclamated statements, and then cutting them all out and taping them all around the office as little reminders to keep those damn lights off. Dedication to the cause of excessive exclamation!! Also, it makes me a little nervous to turn the lights on when I feel like I need them!

Do Not Prop Door Open!!!



The triple exclamation point may show how serious this sign is commanding you, however, I think it is the needless capitalization of each word in the statement that would get me into action.

Friday and Saturday only!!


If the first exciting statement deserved an exclamation, surely the next statement deserved two!!

We're very serious about this discount!


Don't even think about trying to get that 5% at any other time!!!

Get Used!Books



What is with these mid-statement exclamation points that keep popping up? Are you yelling "Get used!" And then whispering "books"?

I look forward to speaking with you!

I love trying to fit the actual rules of exclamation points into the various pictures we get. While I understand that the apartment manager was trying to show her excitement about wanting to speak with you with this unnecessary exclamation, I like to think it falls more under the more appropriate use of showing astonishment, as in, if she actually looked forward to speaking with you, it would be quite astonishing!
