Wow. This vocabulary question: "self-" ...I never thought it could be so hard to answer!
I'm not even joking! I typed "セルフ～" and it wasn't accepted. I then tried typing it with a half-width tilde instead "セルフ~" but this wasn't accepted either... Apparently the dash at the end of the answer isn't either a full-width or half-width tilde like you'd normally expect, but it is something completely different: 〜 which is "wave dash"!! ><

Took me like five minutes to answer that one question, lol! xD- Almost like Beeant predicted someone would one day make a mod to type the answers, and he wanted to set a challenge! haha.
I had to crack out the old "Charmap" Windows application to look for symbols similar to tilde and try each out one-by-one by copy-pasting them.
No idea what other reason there could possibly be for why anyone would use such a difficult to type symbol, instead of pressing the tilde key on the keyboard...? :P
