1. Bolding or emphasizing a word where font types are unavailable.
2. A way of setting off a word that gives what you're writing a "tone" without actually leading the reader to believe that you're saying the word.
3. Making a correction to a previous mistake.

Get the asteriskmug. you know that weird black star symbol on your keyboard? or is it a flower? who cares. anyways, asterisks are usually used in bad words to cancel out the vowels such as “f*ck” or “sh*t”
so instead of using a bad word, why not just call someone an asterisk? they will most likely not know what you are talking about, but you will since you’re reading this post right now. when someone pisses you off, call them an asterisk. or text them one. * haha see what i did there
