Zero Punctuation
A video review series by Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw. Gained popularity on Youtube with a speed not seen since the Angry Video Game Nerd, and after only two quite funny videos was hired by online magazine The Escapist. After being hired by The Escapist, the jokes in the reviews started to get less subtle, and subsequently less funny. Eventually, the guy simply got obnoxious, often making off-topic rants against anyone and anything that earned his ire, most egregious when he said that Halo was unoriginal, then later said that he had never played a Halo game in his Halo 3 review. The rampancy of his unchecked ego became most obvious in his "review" of Super Smash Bros Brawl, where he simply spent half of the video bashing anyone who may like Smash Bros, then dedicated a whole video to the hate mail his excuse for a review generated. He seemed quite surprised that people responded negatively to the fact that he had spent two minutes simply bashing anyone who doesn't share his tastes. Has a legion of idiotic fanboys who will declare that Yahtzee proves that whatever game he reviews has just been PUHOWNED!!1 and that Yahtzee is the only reliable reviewer, then yelling at anyone who disagrees with Yahtzee that his videos are for humour value only and shouldn't be taken seriously, too busy trying to earn Yahtzee's love to notice the contradiction.
Yahtzee: Hello, time for a new Zero Punctuation video. Today, I will bash X game for reasons that are stereotyped and just not funny. I will then talk about how fans of X game or console are idiots and how they are ruining the whole gaming experience for me, because the personal opinion of a single person holds sway over the entire gaming industry and I am immature/stupid enough to care what other people are playing. Also, people who pay attention to reviews are dumbasses and should pay fifty to sixty dollars for a game that they might not even like, because every gamer works for a company that will reimburse them so long as they make a review about it.
Fanboys: YAHTZEE JUST PWNZORED THOSE BITCHES! I'M GOING TO GO TO TV TROPES AND PUT A VAGUELY RELATED QUOTE ON EVERY GAME TROPE ARTICLE THAT WOULDN'T EVEN BE DISTINGUISHABLE FROM THE THREE MILLION OTHER SNARKY REVIEWERS IF NOT FOR "Yahtzee, Zero Punctuation" AT THE BOTTOM! *faps to Portal*

Ironic Punctuation
Using Punctuation in an unusual or unexpected way; and therefore altering the overall meaning of the sentence - possibly with ironic undertones(!)
"I am enclosing a link to my photographs: Some are funny, others are not!" This is an example of Ironic Punctuation... the exclamation mark after the 'unfunny photographs' feels (somehow) peculiar.

No (without a punctuation mark)
You are so annoyed or frustrated because you keep telling someone "no." that you don't feel like responding with a period and waste a fragment of a second, because they aren't worth it.
You have had to say "No." multiple times in response to a text so you you use no (without a punctuation mark) to show how annoyed you are
Them{wanna come over?}
You{No.}
T{Please?}
Y{"No." I said!}
T{pleeeeeeease???}
Y{No}
Them{wanna come over?}
You{No.}
T{Please?}
Y{"No." I said!}
T{pleeeeeeease???}
Y{No}

Prominent Punctuation
Prominent punctuation enlarges periods and commas by drawing a circle around each period, and by drawing a large upward pointing arrow head above each comma. The periods with a circle around them, and the commas with the upward pointing arrow heads above them are standard text editing symbols which can also be used when writing to boost certainty and write better.
Working as a Writing Tutor at Borough of Manhattan Community College in 2014, when proofreading, C.M. Fabara started drawing a circle around each period, and an upward- pointing arrow head above each comma for students to more easily see where they were located in the text. Then, to help him see where a text's periods and commas were on a paper when writing a first draft or subsequent version of a paper, he started adding a cicle to all the periods and an upward-pointing arrow head to all the commas in a paper. Four-years later he named his technique "prominent punctuation" and submitted it to UrbanDictionary.com for their approval.
