squiggly
Like a worm
Squiggly describes lines or shapes that twist and curve irregularly, like a child's scribble or a worm's path: squiggly handwriting, a squiggly line under the misspelled word.
The word suggests something playful or imprecise rather than geometric.
In typography, the tilde (~) is sometimes called a squiggly.
