    First of all, it’s an “ellipsis”, “ellipses” is plural. If you’re going to contribute nothing to a conversation, at the very least don’t be wrong about your only point.

    Secondly, my writing is valid, according to the University of Oxford Style Guide, so you’re already wrong twice:

    Use an ellipsis to indicate a trailing off in speech or thought. We could do this…or maybe that…

    Lastly, it’s an internet discussion, not a doctoral writing dissertation. And it’s not even close to the worst punctuation on this site, so you can fuck alllll the way off…

      It’s an old law of the internet that any complaint about grammar or spelling will contain at least one spelling or grammatical error.
