ALL CAPS



Why must people insist on typing things in ALL CAPS?? Typing, I know, is a fairly new development in the history of humanity. For those of us that have had computers or typewriters our whole lives (and at this point those who have not are like 100 years old and not on the interwebs anyway to read this post (hell, no one is on the interwebs to read this post so lick balls)) it is pretty much understood that capital letters equals yelling. So why would you yell an entire email?

I mean, I can move my left pinky finger approximately .4667 inches and press the caps lock button. Those of you that peck at the keyboard need to move your entire hand approximately 3 inches.

Is it too much to ask that you not TYPE YOUR ENTIRE EMAIL LIKE THIS. THIS IS PRETTY ANNOYING IF YOU ARE USED TO READING PROFESSIONAL EMAILS ALL DAY LONG. IF YOU HAD A TYPEWRITER WOULD YOU BE DOING THIS? CAN I EXPECT A VOICEMAIL LIKE THIS? WILL I MURDER YOU IF YOU TYPE LIKE THIS?

I think Jeffrey Dahmer typed his emails in all caps and that dude was a dick...or liked to eat dicks...or something...
