YOUR ALL LOOSERS!!!!!! Or at least that's what so many people on the Internet would say.

Seriously, though, when I had to set up my old firm for Internet access, I had to explain patiently to people that, no, they are not supposed to have the caps-lock key on when they are trying to enter a case-sensitive password. These were people who had somehow made it through both engineering school and law school, so I think I'll go to my grave not understanding what the problem was.

dont you hate it when someone talks completely in lower case without any punctuation and it just looks like a big gob of gibberish whats so hard about adding a few keystrokes to make their text legible i usually cant make it more than a couple of words into one of those abominable blocks of text so if your still with me your doing pretty good i dont know why those people even bother writing anything down if its going to be impossible to read anyway

I remember way back in the day (late 80s) taking computer classes in HS. Most of the class would hand in their programs written in all caps. A few friends and others would only use lower case (unless of course, something like the text demanded caps). It got to be where more and more folks would only use lowercase, and you could tell newer folks by their continued use of all caps.

I FUCKING HATE ALL CAPS!

On here I use the normal capitalization rules for ease of reading (I flip-flop between using a capital G for god, though).

If anyone wants to be annoying and creative, they should post in all colors
