ALL CAPS? SRSLY?

To those of you who think typing in all caps makes people read your statement (or in some cases several boring paragraphs) because it makes it sound urgent, you are mistaken. First off, why are you yelling at me? What is it about what you're saying that needs to be yelled? And it's not the kind of yelling that an exclamation mark brings. It's angry. It's the kind of thing you'd type while arguing with an ex. For example:

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME MY MOTHER DROPPED OFF HARD BOILED EGGS LAST EASTER BUT INSTEAD YOU PUT THEM IN THE PANTRY? NO WONDER IT SMELLS LIKE FRICKIN' FARTS IN HERE. I THOUGHT THE DOG JUST HAD SOME REAL BAD GAS ISSUES. WOW YOU'RE A GENIUS, FRED. COME TO THINK OF IT, YOUR WHOLE FAMILY IS STUPID. AND YOUR DUMB DOG THAT I KEEP FEEDING CHOCOLATE TOO. THAT'S RIGHT. CHOCOLATE. IT MUST BE SOME SORT OF SUPER DOG THAT IS IMMUNE TO CHOCOLATE. WHICH MAKES ME WONDER IF THAT EXACERBATES THE ROTTEN EGG SMELL AND THE DOG ACTUALLY IS FARTING A LOT. I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I JUST SAID. PLEASE COME HOME.

Now, what Fred's significant other did was mostly correct. His actions warranted 100% caps on that one. Srsly Fred.... But it got weird at the end there... sorry buddy.

The following is a time when all caps are inappropriate (and I'll leave out some punctiation as well to make a point):

I LOVE KITTENS THEY ARE SO SWEET AND TASTEY CUPCAKES MAKE ME HAPPY!!!IF YOU LOVE KITTENS AND CUPCAKES REPOST THIS ON 10 FRIENDS WALLS IF THEY REPOST IT TOO THEN YOUR CRUSH WILL REALIZE YOU'RE STALKING THEM AND GET A RESTRAINING ORDER OMG!!!

This is what I mean. If you, or someone you know, has an all caps problem, please point it out. A recent survey concluded that 107% of the time, things written in all caps are skipped and not reposted. That's a lot of percents of the time that crushes could be warned about potential stalkers people! Just sayin....

omg I love cupcakes....
