Italics don't bother me a'tall, and I've used them frequently. Bold I haven't seen much - although I can see a case made for bold emphasis on a world that would be italicized in a sentence that's completely italized because it's thought or other. If one is cool with ital in the first place.
Asteriks are okay for LJ posts - but they would throw me out of a fic.
I overuse dashes in LJ posts, but I can only think of one fic (a stream of consciousness thing) I've written that was plagued by them.
The lovechild of Kiera Knightly and James Marsters could split atoms with his cheekbones -- Did you know that the Royal Shakespeare Company of Stratford, England, held a 2004 poll asking movie viewers to vote for the actor and actress they would most like to see in the roles of Romeo and Juliet? And the OVERWHELMING winners were Kiera Knightly and James Marsters? Why do I *know* this?
