You need to initialise the tooltip before using `show`, ie `$('#exclamation-sign').tooltip({...});` – Phil Nov 15 '13 at 05:19

As described in the documentation, you need to initialize the tooltips before calling methods on them.
So you need to do, for example
$("#exclamation-sign").tooltip({ 'animation': true, 'title': 'My Tooltip' });
To initialize it. The options are described in the table right there in the documentation.
Then when you're ready,
$("#exclamation-sign").tooltip('show');
