Exclamation points!!

When should i use them, and how often? This is the question i ask myself at times. I think my problem is not that i overuse them, but that i never use them. The rule goes as follows:

The exclamation point is used at the end of a sentence or a interjection to show strong emotion or emphasis.

Example: I hate you!

  1. My general, and only half-joking, guideline for students is that you should use an exclamation point once a year.
