Default Ellipses
I overuse them.

I'm trying to stop.

It's difficult.

Does anyone else find they have a tendency to overuse ellipses?

Maybe it's a TiBB thing. I can't recall if I used to do it before I joined here. I've been here for so long now.

I don't think I can blame Ammi for my affliction. I was doing it long before we met.

Look how hard I'm trying to stop now.

I use them all the time. I use them in emails, I even write them in greetings cards 'Dear [insert name], Hope you have a really Happy Birthday... love... ". I used to get annoyed with myself, now I have come to terms with it and I just embrace the madness.
