Loading... please wait.
First of all, I'm sorry.
I don't know how long this hiatus will last, but I need time for now.
My best friend just left this world two days ago.
I don't think I can continue writing in this situation.
I've been subjected to a stress for a while now. Please be understanding for that.
As such, I will put all my works in hiatus.

Oh dear. That's quite understandable, losing someone is... hard. Take the time you need, however long that may be.
Aposiopesis. A sign of sincerity. Especially online. Are you trying to show how genuine of a person you are by breaking your speech? Call me crazy, but that doesn't sound like someone sad. Maybe it's me who's upset. Maybe you really do feel bad for them. But I don't trust anyone who uses that literary device in sympathy. you are trying to look good. you are stroking your ego by commenting this. You don't care about them.
@Deipnosophist Aposiopesis is not usually a sign of sincerity fyi. 'specially when it's typed out.
So, first of all, I looked up this aposiopesis, and I don't have that in my comment above. It's defined as deliberately leaving a statement unfinished, and I did no such thing.
I assume you're actually referring to the ellipsis. In which case, that's just how I write. If I would have a pause in speech, I insist there be a pause in writing. Any iteration of those words in my mind has a pause there, so it is in my text as well.
And no, I was not sad. I was not the one who lost a friend, and I couldn't imagine what that's like. All I really understand is that it's a difficult thing to go through, and I wanted to make it clear that needing time to deal with that isn't something to apologize for. It is perfectly understandable.
Really and truly, I shouldn't have bothered to reply to this. You weren't the one I wrote that message for anyway. But there are few things I hate more than someone telling me I don't care. Don't act as if you know anything about how I feel. You don't know me.
@Akajaro fr bro. can't believe someone would say that about you. some people are crazy. I'm w/ you 100%
@Deipnosophist on an actual note, I apologize for doubting your sincerity. I think you are right. I broke one of my principles when I wrote that; that is doing something hostile to someone when I know that I don't understand the situation fully. I considered that I could be wrong in my assumptions when writing that, and ignored that possibility. I understand my personal values have no impact on you, as they are personal. It was immature of me to post that comment, while knowing that it was more than likely not applicable to you, yet would hurt you deeply. I too have had my sincerity questioned. I will take this as a lesson, and will rectify this behavior in the future.
tl;dr: I am sorry, I will not do this anymore.
Huh... Well, thank you for the apology. Seeing as you seemed to have learned something from this, I'm fine with it. Have a good day.

Also, this a was a lot funnier than it should have been.
