I never would have thought of this before, but now I've charted a new course for my sad life. Thank Brett for the ads on this forum.



I only wish this board had those "Grow 6 more inches in only 6 weeks!" ads. I bet sunshine would approve, no?

Err, no. I was referring to the part you tastefully used elipses for.


I can think of quite a few things I can't train to do.

::Sigh::


You wrote "rather than length of.....!!!" I presumed that the elipses replaced "cock." And I assume by your last post that I was right.

:lol: ok, I didn't know they were reffered to as 'elipses'!!!... I use them all the time for a pause or to indicate that my words are likely to be a continuation rather than the end of the subject but, hmmm - I thought is was just 'dots' lol!!!... Damn and I thought I was good at english yet I didn't even know what the word elipses means!!!... :shock: :oops: :roll: :(

I left out an "l." It's actually spelled "ellipses." My fault.

I also use them for pauses or to indicate trailing off or in, but they can also be used to indicate words that have been omitted (most often in a quote).


Anyway, don't you think it's time you headed over to the "Things you learned today" thread?

Now now, mark, it's GOOD to learn new things...


...unless it's learning something like "Mr. X hates me."
