But seriously, what's with capitalising every single fucking first letter of every fucking word. I don't mean on cruise control for cool filters like on bf2s, i mean on like facebook status' and stuff like that. texts are another example.

Does my head in.

Because they're illiterate cunts who think it looks good.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Because people have too much time on their hands. Why do you think people spent inordinate amounts of time customizing their page and adding apps and such? Waste of time....

I always thought it was an automatic feature when people wrote all in caps, kind of a method to stop flaming. I only say this because I remember as a member here writing a post all in caps and after posting getting the Every Single First Letter Capitalised Look.

SINCE I BECAME A MOD THOUGH I HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEM WRITING EVERYTHING IN CAPITALS. MAYBE MY MYSTIC AUTO DE-CAPITALISOR NEVER EXISTED AND WAS A FIGMENT OF MY TWISTED MIND, WHO KNOWS.

It's OK in titles, brings it out more (which a title is supposed to do). As for text itself, it looks stupid and time consuming.

Well then you're illiterate as well; his sentence structure and use of the subjective pronoun is strictly bad grammar.

Plus he is pluralising the wrong words/subjects, oh my.

Right, let's see you produce grammatically perfect Finnish.

I'm not the one calling people "cunts" for being unfamiliar with a language...

Just pointing out the hypocrisy, he should set a good example himself before he calls out other people for being illiterate.
