ellipses with more or less than three periods have almost always bothered me
I remember being in grade school and getting annoyed when I saw it

I read this book way back when but this example does cum from my quick Google search

F. Scott Fitzgerald may not usually qualify as a student of the iceberg school—he favors lyrical abundance—but he does sneak a state-of-art ellipsis into The Great Gatsby.

“Come to lunch someday,” he suggested, as we groaned down in the elevator.
“Where?”
“Anywhere.”
“Keep your hands off the lever,” snapped the elevator boy.
“I beg your pardon,” said Mr. McKee with dignity, “I didn’t know I was touching it.”
“All right,” I agreed, “I’ll be glad to.”

. . . I was standing beside his bed and he was sitting up between the sheets, clad in his underwear, with a great portfolio in his hands.



I of course have to laff because when one looks up the proper use of Ellipse it says TO NEVER begin a sentence with an Ellipse
