One of the principle arguments for the preterist interpretation of Revelation is the use of words like "soon" and "at hand" (ταχος, εγγυς) in the beginning of the book. But this argument is self-refuting, because these words are used to bookend the entire Apocalypse.

You can't pick and choose which terms you want to emphasize in order to prop up the bizarre preterist interpretation.
