    When someone says "hence" in an argument, I think they're trying to pat themselves on the back for what they think is an argument well-made.

        Clever. Is there a link to an update on status of your hacked computer? Curious and never heard what happened?

        When someone says "with all due respect", you are about to find out you zero respect is due.

        Not sure I use "hence," but do like to pat myself on the back. Hence, the word is generally unnecessary.
