Inappropriate use of an ellipsis there Mocas.

It's perfectly valid to use an ellipsis to indicate aposiopesis.

And now that I think about it, it's a dash as I said not a hyphen.

You've lost me with this one. I was just pointing out that timk had used a hypen where he ought to have used as dash.

Of course:

Please note I have marked some text in my explanation with some clasic Greek. I have in NO WAY cut and pasted it

Aposiopesis (pronounced /ˌæpəsaɪ.əˈpiːsɪs/ from Classical Greek, ἀποσιώπησις, "becoming silent") is a rhetorical device wherein a sentence is deliberately broken off and left unfinished, the ending to be supplied by the imagination, giving an impression of unwillingness or inability to continue. An example would be the threat "Get out, or else—!" This device often portrays its users as overcome with passion (fear, anger, excitement) or modesty. To mark the occurrence of aposiopesis with punctuation an em dash or an ellipsis may be used.
