I'd Like to Buy an Interrobang, Pat

[gnomi]

There's a new advertising poster I've been seeing all over the Red Line for the boston.com classified section. It has six icons on it: a blue circle with a white suitcase on it, a dark green circle with a car on it, a red circle with a white house on it, an orange circle with a white chest of drawers on it, a purple circle with a white doglike thing on it, and a lime green circle with an exclamation point on it. I have therefore decided that they're touting the ability to buy the following from boston.com classifieds:

-- Luggage
-- Cars
-- Houses
-- Furniture
-- Mutant pets
-- Punctuation

Seriously, though, the first five I can figure out, kinda: travel (or maybe it's a briefcase and it's for jobs), cars, houses, furniture, pets. Those all make some sort of sense. But I can't figure out what the ! is all about.

And I don't want to give Boston.com any satisfaction by going there to find out what they might be trying to sell with that exclamation point.

I've seen that ad. I'm not sure what it's for, either.

At a guess, something medical, or maybe psychiatric. Something they don't want to be too explicit about.
