The character ~ is colloquially used in written form in some areas of the UK to denote sleazy, sordid, or otherwise base behaviour.

~ can also cover flirtatious behaviour with the opposite sex: you are never ~ with the same sex.

An ability to ~ is generally viewed as being a positive personality trait, unless it is used on a friend's mother, grandmother, or domestic animal. Being ~ to a friend's sister is usually acceptable.

~ is also the mystic rune of the send-it organisation.

The vast majority of the world's virgins, comic book fanatics, computer scientists, and train spotters wish they had some ~.
MATE WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING? THAT BIRD YOU'RE ~~~ OVER IS HIS MOTHER!

I was nervous before my interview, but she was a woman so I gave it some ~ and got the job.

Remember that bird last night? I gave her some heavy ~ and she loved it.

1. Sarcasm symbol. Originally created when two overly sarcastic teens needed to clarify sarcasm from truth. Usually placed after a sarcastic statement.

2. Also can be used as a symbol to show when the statement was meant to be a joke.
