If I could introduce my own punctuation mark, it would be this: ..O.. the pregnant pause.
I like the convention of stars for *emphasis* myself. It's pretty common online and used as a shortcut for boldface type some places.
Were I to invent a single punctuation mark to infer such a query, perhaps an upside-down "?" would work. (Yes, I know that's a common punctuation mark in several languages, but I usually speak/write in English so it's up for grabs as far as I'm concerned...)
Why would anybody argue with that logic¿
Much like the ellipsis (or "...") is used to indicate a pause in speech, an unfinished thought, or, at the end of a sentence, a trailing off into silence, "+++" can be used to show PWNERSHIP!
As for what punctuation mark I would make, I have two:
A backward S with a bold dot within the upper curve. It would be used for sarcastic comments.
Essentially a question mark with the vertical portion replaced with a small circle. This is a mark I learned from a friend that I took to, it denotes that the question or statement needs to be further researched to verify if it is right or not. It is not particularly handy in general use, but in note taking, it can be a handy way to say, "I need to get more data on this later."
I would retain my 'day job' so as to stave off 'starvation.'
And "!?" as an early form of "WTF"
