- colanderman 12y agoNote that these glyphs will appear as boxes until font designers get around to adding them to their fonts. You can have fun with this. Say you're disillusioned with your current job and planning to leave within the year. Insert these into whatever important document you're working on at the time, e.g. as bullet points or decoration around titles. Sometime after you leave, they'll reveal their true nature. A sort of "FU" time-bomb.
