To add extra emphasis to whatever you're typing or to add a mischievous connotation to the point you're trying to get across in whatever you're typing. Not the way they're supposed to be used of course, but I'll be darned if I don't see them used like that constantly. Why tildes instead of exclamation points/wink face emoticons respectively which would be more appropriate? Dunno that either. There ya go!

I find it a nice replacement for a music note symbol~
I also want it to denote sarcasm, which would be really useful, but I don't think anyone would get it. -- Okay, I rolled a 14. What's that mean? Hsu That you're a cheater. This is a 12-sided die. Chan ... Copied to Clipboard!
