How and when to use it
- If you're extremely excited or angry while texting someone and questioning them about stuff, you could welcome ⁉️. For example, "Soooo how did it go ⁉️" or "Really? Really, man? I told you that ⁉️⁉️" (extra punctuation for extra emotion).
- You could also use ⁉️ rhetorically in your social media post/story captions. For instance, "Is this the best game ever or what ⁉️" or "Ain't she the cutest hooman alive ⁉️".
- Much like the 'punctuation reply' in the use-case of the red question mark (scroll up for reference), you can use ⁉️ while excitedly or ridiculously questioning someone. Like,
"You know I'm not really into you right?"
Me: *after going out with this person for a month* ⁉️
or "Really ⁉️". - The previous point brings to the list the sarcastic side of ⁉️. As much as this emoji showcases a mixture of emotions, it could be a fantastic punctuation of sarcasm - "So. You're not stupid anymore ⁉️", "Wow. I had no clue at all ⁉️", or "No shit, Sherlock ⁉️".
