I've noticed the expanding use of the ~ over the years... it all started with just a simple desire for a way to convey sarcasm. It then grew into all these other monstrous uses. One they forgot is adding it "to be cute".

I'm confused. Isn't this generally the accepted use of the exclamation point?

I can't tell if I'm being subtly trolled or if they're actually serious.
