Elaine: Well, I was just curious why you didn’t use an exclamation point?

Jake: What are you talking about?

Elaine: See, right here you wrote “Myra had the baby”, but you didn’t use an exclamation point.

Jake: So?

Elaine: So, it’s nothing. Forget it, forget it, I just find it curious.

Jake: What’s so curious about it?

Elaine: Well, I mean if one of your close friends had a baby and I left you a message about it, I would use an exclamation point.

Jake: Well, maybe I don’t use my exclamation points as haphazardly as you do.

Elaine: You don’t think that someone having a baby warrants an exclamation point.

Jake: Hey, I just chalked down the message. I didn’t know I was required to capture the mood of each caller.

Elaine: I just thought you would be a little more excited about a friend of mine having a baby.

Jake: Ok, I’m excited. I just don’t happen to like exclamation points.
