An ellipsis is a kind of 'super-period' which makes a female exponentially more emotional and bitchy than her regular period. Easily demonstrated graphically:
Period: .
Ellipsis: ..................................
Girl: WAHH WAHH WAAHHHHHH CRY BITCH BITCH FUCK YOU ASSHOLE!
Guy 1: Whoa, what's her problem?
Guy 2: She's being a megabitch because she's on her ellipsis.
Girl: WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU SAY? *starts bawling uncontrollably*
