Reflecting on his experience, Toro humorously noted that after his initial sale, he counted all his previous rejections—either out of self-punishment or as a way of recognizing the failed attempts that ultimately led to his success. "To say thank you, losers."
yes, and saw something that made me feel very sad about that

He joked that being a cartoonist is like pitching a product that only works 1% of the time, yet you still keep going. "I think the rejection and suffering is a perversely attractive part of the job. If anything, it forges a community of survivors."

Exactly. I used to use four or five exclamation points a year. Now I have to use two or three per email or people think I'm being affectedly subdued (or even rude).
I used to playfully tease friends about their emails and texts who overly used exclamation points. Now, it seems, I'm the one who is wrong.

We had a manager that met with an executive. The exec was friendly and they had a good discussion. After a while, the manager asked "Why don't you ever reply to my emails?" The exec, said "How many exclamation points do you put in the subject line?" "What?" "Well, if there's not at least 3, I don't even look at them." And yes, she was serious.
