I believe a quote by Soren Kierkegaard is apt in this discussion: "I have just now come from a party where I was its life and soul; witticisms streamed from my lips, everyone laughed and admired me, but I went away — yes, the dash should be as long as the radius of the earth's orbit ——————————— and wanted to shoot myself."
Funniest thing he ever wrote.

The dash should also come before the word "but". But then, a quote's whatever you interpret it to be, no?
