The sarcasm mark: ⸮

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irony_punctuation

Although in the written English language there is no standard way to denote irony or sarcasm, several forms of punctuation have been proposed. Among the oldest and frequently attested are the percontation point invented by English printer Henry Denham in the 1580s, and the irony mark, furthered by French poet Alcanter de Brahm in the 19th century. Both of these marks were represented visually by a backwards question mark (unicode U+2E2E ⸮ reversed question mark). The character can also be represented on Windows by using the Alt code 1567. Using LaTeX, one can display it by including the graphicx package, and then using \reflectbox?.

11. No, it's when you bang someone as a form of interrogation!
Now that's enhanced interrogation! }(
