This is an ellipsis "..."

It can be used to mark omission: Once upon a time... and that's how you were conceived.
It can be used to show the trailing off of a thought; god I hate people...
It can be used to show hesitation: @Ben Lamb I hate to say this... but you're a commie.

You can even use four suspension points "...." if the portion of the sentence being omitted ends and a new sentence begins.

,,,

Those are just commas.

Not a thing.

I forgive your sins, but no more.

Sorry man… Mrs Boggs hated me in high school.. much… better… at science and math…

 

[rtraverdavis]

That’s all well and good…

But do you have the stones to try and correctly use a semicolon?

Give em a speech on the word “running”. Good grief I hate that one. If you’re “running” anything it better have a motor on it.

Running your boat motor
Running your motorbike
Running your chainsaw
Running your headlamp......???????

Someone funnier than me once said that the only reason anyone used a semicolon was to prove he went to college; nevertheless, this is how it’s done.

Running your kill kit this year or just packing a knife and a tag?

Is it okay if we talk about other things, like who the hell is in charge of marketing for broadhead companies?
