The exclamation point has been nicknamed "bang" for as long as I can remember. (Back in the uucp days, you would give an email address as "machine1, bang, machine2, bang, machine3, bang..." for "machine1! machine2!machine3!...")

In the UK, the bang is called a shriek -- I kind of like that.

I think thinkgeek.com sucks. With all of their mainstream geek shirts, it's making a trendy "geek" stereotype. I mean, imagine a world where little blonde geeks roam around in the latest trendy "geek" car, with geek shirts, shoes, and matching geek accessories! My definition of geek is me in my worn down striped shirt, greasy hair from no shower in three days, and eyes sunken 3 inches into your head from hours of frustration trying to learn the GTK API for C.

Sounds just like me during my third year of computer science.
