Too bad they didn't go with the ⌘ symbol (suspending the fact it's not a char you can type), as I'd love to hear people say 'Pretzel Tag'

Really, the "standard" set of keyboard symbols is only of use to programmers these days. And people with Teletypes.

Why is there no degree sign or pi symbol, for instance? Android keyboards have things like that, but PCs are still stuck in 1981.

Techinically, you can do a degrees sign by puting "o" in two superscript tags.

Yeah, that wouldn't very annoying compared to "hashtag". I guess it's because it is usually called "pretzel" or "flower". So flower pretzel meta tag? Or squiggly thingy tag?

Just one of the reasons I customized my keyboard layout using an official free Microsoft tool, heh :P (BTW, Macintoshes can type ⌘ by default if you know which Option key it is... I don't have ⌘ on my layout however, but I do have plenty of đïāčrìŧíçŝ and other symbols like ♫♠♦♣♥♀♂★∞π ^_^)

If they were used only for grouping messages, I'd be fine with hashtags. Obviously they aren't being used for that purpose--They're mostly used as descriptions, which is #annoyingtoreadasthewordsarealltogetherlikethis. And don't remind me of that terrible song named after them.

On the other hand, I ♥ the ♫ symbol. :D

Or whatever the title is. You know, that annoying bitch just talking over an (admittedly catchy) beat.

Actually I was thinking about that one. I just confused selfies with hashtags. It was probably the hashtag in the title or just an indicator that I should sleep. My bad.

What's up with putting the # in a song title? It seems to have become a trend lately.

That particular track seemed to compile all the annoying quirks of society into one song. It just wouldn't be complete without having that hashtag, I guess.

And yeah, it has become a thing for song titles to have hashtags. It's kinda lazy and redundant. Why think of a unique title when you can just stick a hashtag in there?

Thankfully most of them aren't all that popular.

I'm at least hoping the song is satirical, making fun of the people who do all that.

Actually that's what I thought when I first heard it. The only problem is that those who it's making fun of think it's some dope song that's enjoyable to play on repeat. Kind of like Royals, except that this one is ear torture.

#People #either #do #this #ortheydothis.

The # is really getting out of hand. Next thing you know, everything beyond "#[INSERT WHATEVER]" will be taken over.

Obviously, we have what will be known as the #generation of people.

There's a song I heard which refers to "hashtag trends" but that's as far as it goes.

Yep, "hashtag" is taking over the world. Goodbye "number sign".

The committee for the advancement of numbers is profoundly disturbed by this latest attacks on it's supporting symbol. They plan to protest in front of Twitter's HQ and demand the relinquishment of their friends "hash and pound of the numbers"

Oh well. I suppose we're stuck with hashtag word for a while.

Even multi-million dollar businesses that use twitter have "Hashtag" this and "hashtag" that. I really do get annoyed by it all.
