HELLO, HOW ARE YOU?
March 3rd, 2005
THE AGE OF THE INTERNET HAS BROUGHT ABOUT MANY CHANGES WITH THE WAY WE COMMUNICATE. PEOPLE NOW USE ABBREVIATIONS LEFT AND RIGHT AND FULL SENTENCES HAVE BECOME A THING OF THE PAST. HOWEVER, ANOTHER NEW CHANGE IS COMMUNICATING IN ALL CAPS. FOR THOSE THAT READ WITH AN INNER VOICE AND BASICALLY THINK THE WORDS OUTLOUD IN THEIR HEADS, WHEN YOU SEE ALL CAPS LIKE THIS, YOU ACTUALLY WILL START TO YELL INSIDE YOUR HEAD. When I write like this though, your inner voice goes back to normal and you can read with no problems. HOWEVER, READING TEXT LIKE THIS CAN BECOME VERY VERY ANNOYING IF YOU’RE LIKE ME AND THINK ALOUD THE WORDS THAT YOU READ.
SO IF YOU’RE EVER IN THE MOOD TO TRY AND ANNOY SOMEONE, JUST START TYPING TO THEM IN ALL CAPS. I’M PRETTY SURE IT’LL ANNOY THE HECK OUT OF THEM.

wow, the power of liberal capitalization… that was totally stressful to read. with a single stroke of the caps lock key, you can make elmer fudd quite contradictory: “BE VEWY VEWY QUIET. I’M HUNTING WABBITS.”

Yeah…sometimes I get annoyed when I receive assignments written or hear kids speak in AIM language:roll:…KIDS these days have GOT TO LEARN TO WRITE!!!

Or other people can always learn to type like whole sentences online (yes, without the AIM language). I try, it’s quite hard when everyone goes like “g2g,” “sup,” or various other stupid abbreviations. Oh well. We’ll learn someday Lawrence!!
