Strange resemblances and weird sisters

Then there is the oft-cited Character Most Resembling a
Line Break:

MALAYALAM LETTER UU (U+0D0A)

Then in Extension B there are many, many weird and wonderful
candidates for strangest CJK characters. Some of my
personal favorites include:

U+26B99
U+20137
U+20572
U+2069C
U+2696E

With such genetic defects, one would have expected such
characters to die out long ago, but Unicode has brought them
back to life.

And of course, there is always the miraculous proliferation
of turtles... ;-)
