why is that lame?
I suppose it also means home in one particular context.
I don't think I have considered it 'equivalent' or 'not'.

contextual for me, i recognize it as all of those things (not, approximately, equivalent to, distributed as, unix home dir).
According to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/~#Logic):
In written mathematical logic, it represents negation (e.g. "~p" equals "not p".) Modern use has been replacing the tilde with the exclamation mark (!) for this purpose, to avoid confusion with equivalence relations.
Oh, and tildes remind me of an operat~1 system which has problems unders~1 filena~1 with more than 8(.3) charac~1.
