All I did was google for ‘special character note’, went to the first result, highlighted the characters I wanted with the mouse, ctrl+C, then came back here and did a ctrl+V.

There’s [craploads](http://www.copypastecharacter.com/all-characters) of special characters out there, they behave just like regular letters for the most part. ☯ ☣ ✈ ♟ ⬣

Yeah, Mac users have a harder time with the weird characters like musical notes, but we have an easier time with the mørë cómmoñ ôneß lîke those used in other långuage∫. I think it’s a fair tradeoff.

God created human beings so, as an atheist, I don’t believe in the existence of human beings. Except for fictional human beings because they were created by human beings and not God. So I believe that Arthur Conan Doyle did not exist but I believe that Sherlock Holmes did.
