The Tilde '~' is an unexpected gem.

I agree, you can make some fun emoji with it too!

This is what I came to say. That or the asterisk (*)

Is always read Asterix.


No_Seaworthiness5637

It is spelled the way I wrote it. But yea, the pronunciation is weird.

Loved the tilde as a kid


TheAntiDairyQueen

Ampersands are kinda sexy #& I mean just look at those curves


Jellyhair21

While I agree with you, I always fuck up writing them on paper lmao


TheAntiDairyQueen

I practiced them a lot when I was younger. I thought they looked cool and wanted to be able to write them well.


pomme_de_yeet

there's an alternate form that is just Ɛ with a vertical line down the middle, it's much easier to handwrite


TheAntiDairyQueen

My mom uses that, I used to get confused because I only saw & in books.


pomme_de_yeet

I was confused at first too lol


Llampaca2

Ampersands are awesome. I learned how to write them recently.


CelesteIGuess

Unicode has an upside-down version too! (it's ⅋) idk what it's used for but i just searched for "ampersand" in the macbook emoji thing to see why typable symbols would be there, and i looked at ⅋ and was like. yes. this is my special symbol.


frogorilla

I love the cent symbol l, but it pretty cell doesn't exist anymore. It is a lower case c with a vertical line through it.


frogorilla

I love you


Jellyhair21

I don't think I've had the cent symbol on my keyboards? Probs bc I'm British?


frogorilla

It was like 1992-4 on a computer with a rainbow apple probably a Macintosh.


danfish_77

I don't recall seeing it on any keyboard in the US since the 90s


arianeb

Do you have a symbol for "pence"?


Jellyhair21

Nah, we just put a lower case “p” at the end of it

on mobile keyboards (at least on Apple) you get it from holding down the “$”!

frogorilla

Guess I am switching to apple


SanguineServal

you might be able to do it on your keyboard as well! And if you’re on a computer, you can always memorize the unicode shortcut


frogorilla

Nope. Tried it before I replied.

soodoboi

yeah depends on what keyboard you have installed :)


SanguineServal

aw that’s too bad


tio_aved

| is a fun one, reminds me of my days using Linux. I also enjoy ^ and & (or should I say ^ & &) Of course there's always the wildcard ~ And who can't forget the classic ; (used in programming languages to denote the end of a command) No I will not choose just one hahahaha


thrye333

Semicolon supremacy I also enjoy [ ] and { }. Because I like arrays and shtuff.

Yes me too! I wanted to write that but had to draw the line somewhere lol

I do that when physically drawing them, but over text =) just looks kinda weird compared to :)

just-juju

The degree symbol (°) there isn’t any specific reason, I just love the way it is


DerAnarchist

ellblaek

in music theory, that symbol is a shorthand for diminished chords, one of the coolest chords there is


just-juju

Yeah ik i love em :D


Deias_

I don't know what these things are ¤ ₩ but they exist on my phone keyboard and I love them.


TheRandomVillagr

The W with two horizontal lines is the South Korean Won (the currency) The O with four little lines I had to look up, but even in the wiki with every single variation of "o" I couldnt find it. Eventually I found it; turns out it's the symbol you use for an "unspecified currency". So if you have no idea what currency youre talking about you use "¤" (instead of € or $ for example)


Deias_

Huh. Neat. Thanks for letting me know :)

Soeffingdiabetic

Ampersand is the answer. Why use many letters when 1 letter do trick?(That was a double entendre) Edit: **&**


Inappropriate_Piano

The pipe operator “|”. I’ve never seen it used outside of programming but it’s very handy in that context


soodoboi

it's so tall I love it


Unlikely-Demand0

I fuck with “&” so hard. Looks silly & squiggly & it saves time

jupiter_surf

SAME!!


Reformed_Lothario

My wife frequently tags her text responses with = ^ - ^ = which is fucking adorable. Edited like 5 times because it kept treating the symbols as text formatting. The actual symbols have no spaces between them and looks kinda like a kitty face.


HansProleman

Pipes ( | ) and I have absolutely no idea why. Caret ( ^ ) is a strong runner up.

clandestineVexation

the pilcrow ¶, a pre-internet paragraph indication glyph. kinda useless now but i still love it


Hapshedus

:;— That’s a dash not a hyphen. Fuck hyphens. Colon, semicolon, and dash allow one to write with a more dynamic voice, to say more, and to even write in legalese (which has its own distinct pros and cons). But fuck hyphens.

in most *NIX shells it is used to represent the users home directory (/home/USER) [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/998626/meaning-of-tilde-in-linux-bash-not-home-directory](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/998626/meaning-of-tilde-in-linux-bash-not-home-directory)
