the Ellipsis...
and i can't be alone...

i've counted 79 occurrences of it in this thread at time of my writing...

i understand the grammar behind when and where it should be used but it just satisfies me a lot more than a full stop... feels more like a stream of thoughts as oppose to a novel...

i've got a mate who hates my over use of it...
him continually making this clear doesn't make me wanna do it any less... some people just enjoy imperfections...

right... here's another 10 to keep us going...

Every text message I send has to have it...and most emails as well.

When you have a sister... that likes to send messages with lots of breaks in it... such as what I'm doing now... so that I have typed 5 more lines and she's still addressing something that was touched on 3 minutes ago.. and she's a slow typer.. but I have the one up on her.. I am a faster typer because I only use 2 ellipsis ^_^... ^_^

At least you put a space after it!
And your sig is heresy, but we can blame the code :)

The ellipsis...
...so much more acceptable than the exclamation mark!
