God I hate it. I pause every ellipses automatically in my head so I'm reading that much slower and it makes me angry.

I do it in specific instances where I want to express a pause, like "that was....ok?" I also use it when I want what I'm saying to come off as annoyed. "The shipment was late, again..."

I actually worry about exclamation points because I use them like OPs image, but I always worry people take it as yelling or something lol

I think they have attention span problems or something like that. They can't wait while they are forming sentences, so while they think of something, they add ellipses to their message.

Quickest way to get ignored.
