The pondercation point is a punctuation mark that fills a critical need in written communication. In spoken word, inflection and tone are used to indicate inquisitive statements. In the written word, however, there is no official punctuation mark to delineate a statement intended as a question (e.g. "I wonder if beverages will be provided.")
With an increasing amount of communication being conducted in written word (e-mail, chat rooms, instant messaging) the need for greater clarity in punctuation drove research grammarians at the "Toughest Guys in the World" think tank in Provo, Utah, to develop a new punctuation symbol using existing punctuation available on a typical Western keyboard.
The pondercation point is represented by the combination of the ~ (tilde) and the ` (apostrophe), and is used at the end of inquisitive statements that require an answer from the recipient. Therefore instead of saying, "I wonder if you are lying to me, asshole?" intent is better indicated with the pondercation point: "I wonder if you are lying to me, asshole~`"

Get the point taken mug.A private school in Pennsylvania in the middle of nowhere where kids who are broke themselves but their parent's have money go because if they went to a normal high school they would be bullied. Students just use daddy’s money to buy their yeezys and not clothes because the uniform forces you to wear the same pair of pants everyday. The guys either graduate and get engaged by 19 or grow up to be a pedo. Girls at HP are some of the most basic white girls you’ll ever meet who thrive on drama. Bring your kids to HPBA if you have the money for the tuition that goes up every year and therapy. Lots of therapy.
