...ellipsis my friend...

...

The ellipsis is my favorite piece of punctuation.

I am not sure where my fascination with it began, but at some point I just started throwing them around without a care in the world.

But really, what is the point of the 3 little points? Isn't the ellipsis just the typographical equivalent to the verbal stutter - "umm".

Oh I know that there is a proper "usage" for it, but not in my world. For me, the ellipsis is that shortcut between thoughts. A quick pause-and-go. A means to an end (or the beginning) of the next non-sentence or communicative fragment.
