Er ... seems to be the little moment, when someone does not know what to say, or how to proceed with a sentence. In written form more an expression of a humoristic way to show a short moment of uncertainty.

Just what I believe

This sounds like a problem of having no inner monologue.

Hey Jim,

come on! What are you threatening us with? []

A colleague of me is always haunting us with quotes like: "A joke is the epigram about the death of an emotion" Sentences like this make me nervous. I always ask him if he had dropped in some drugs. *LOL*

Mr. Lister: No bad counterstrike! Point for you, I will arrange an appointment with my otorhinolaryngologist (ENT doc).

Inner monologue is when your talking to your self inside your head. I got the quote from austin powers.
