Noticed that some people punctuate each sentence or fragment
with a "......" even though a comma or even a full stop would be
the logical choice.
I can understand the usage of Singapore slang or internet
abbreviations as they increase the speed at which you can type and
articulate yourself, but "......." requires six key strokes instead
of one.
And its not just in SGForums, or even singapore forum sites. Its
everywhere on the internet.
An example (left annonymous):
Yet another jive pad
spawn ....
list down all the kopitiam exoticas you can think of ... see which
of you can confound the kopitiam aunties ... Twisted Evil
"aunty ! ... teh si siew tai ka nai ! ......
