I use dashes a lot when I write - it tells a person, keep going, the thought you're about to read is still part of one thought, but separate slightly from the first part of the sentence. While it looks ugly under analysis and would get you marked down by an English teacher, I find it pretty good at communicating quickly and getting points across.

--I use dashes a lot when I write-- ive been experimenting with a writing style that used hyphen as the only punctuation - http://makebelieve1.wordpress.com/about/ http://makebelieve1.wordpress.com/about/ - but i realized that wordpress.com converts hyphens with spaces on either side into en-dashes and two hyphens into em-dashes
