Is there anything more annoying than an all caps message or email? Not only is it hard to read, but I've also grown very used to the fact that it's considered 'shouting' on the internet....

This is what I'm taking about:

I have to say that I am very guilty about writing e-mails in all caps. At work, my supervisor likes everything in caps so my caps lock is always on and I just forget when I am writing the e-mails and I never really feel like changing it. I never really knew it bothered people until the guy I was dating said something after he got one of my e-mails. I finally realized that it was like I was yelling all the time so I am now very cautious about doing that.:rolleyes:

Yeah, they piss me off, but not THAT much.

I just forgo it as a silly thing to be peeved about and move on.

well my neighbor comes to my house and gets on aol, looks for chicks to talk to, and they are so stupid... they all talk like that with that weird ass font.. I swear, they are corrupting minds of nice young ladies.. I tend to stay away from trendy people like that.. they can kiss my skinny white butt
