Do the math

Billy tells me that my meaning of this entry is unclear to him, so allow me to explain.

Let's start with the word ellipses, plural for ellipsis which is an omission or suppression of parts of words or sentences denoted with three periods, ala "..." See yada-yada-yada.

I was merely suggesting that the creator of this sign (inadvertently, no doubt) used ellipses in such a way as to make an inarguably absurd statement technically correct.

So, for the statement in question:

POWERBALL
$65 Million!
Play one dollar...
Win millions...
No brainer.

The ellipses represent missing words from the sentence, so the sign COULD be saying:

POWERBALL
$65 Million!
Play one dollar
[and you'll have a miniscule chance to]
Win millions
[which makes this deal anything but a]
No brainer.

There Billy, do you understand now? Good. Now go ahead and post something suggesting that I am still in error so that you can save face. It is your MO after all.

I'm not merely a dialectical vehicle for you. I'm a person, dammit. You can't start a discussion omitting and incorrectly summing up our discourse, thus mis-speaking for me.

I have two additional points:
1 "[which makes this deal anything but a ] No brainer. " -- I would say that it's a no brainer meaning "duh, don't buy a ticket and expect to win." But you have your definitions for your phrases and I have mine.
2 I believe your rendering of the ellipses is only one perspective. You could equally include "[with a chance to] Win millions". In that case, you're a pervert.

And here, I was thinking that the configuration of the phrases was a mathematical ellipse. I over estimated you.

All I have to say is ...

This reminds me the old (current?) McDonald's soft drink cups which said "put trash in its place...McDonald's". Well, it didn't have the elipses, but McDonald's was on the cup right below those words, so it was like a geographical elipses.

What is ellipses dude?
Dang, am I ever the dummy...
