WHY?:SHOULDN'T YOU TYPE IN ALL CAPS?
 |
RECENTLY, I LOST A VERY DEAR FRIEND OF MINE BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T LIKE THE WAY I TYPED. I, THE KIND OLD PERSON I AM, DECIDED TO SHARE TO THE WORLD THE REASON YOU SHOULDN'T TYPE IN ALL CAPS.
IT'S ANNOYING[edit | edit source]
TYPING IN ALL CAPS MAKES IT LOOK LIKE YOU'RE YELLING OR ANGRY. I DON'T KNOW WHY THAT IS; I THINK I TYPE FINE! THIS IS WHY WE SHOULD TALK FACE TO FACE MORE, BECAUSE IF YOU SEE ME TALKING, YOU'LL KNOW I'M AS CALM AND PEACEFUL AS EVER!
BUT IT'S ALSO ANNOYING WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO TYPE SOMETHING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN YOUR FRIENDS THINK YOU'RE MAD AT THEM. I'M NOT MAD, LILIAN. I'M EXCITED!
IT HACKS YOUR PHONE[edit | edit source]
I WAS TRYING TO MESSAGE MY GRANDSON AND TELL HIM I GOT SCAMMED BY SOME WEB SITE CALLED "UNICYCLE PEDIA". HE SENT A CRYING EMOJI AND A SKULL EMOJI, WHICH I DID NOT LIKE BECAUSE I WANT MY GRANDSON TO BE HAPPY, NOT CRYING OR DEAD! THE NEXT DAY, MY GRANDDAUGHTER SENT ME A PICTURE OF SOME OTHER WEBSITE CALLED "R SLASH OLD PEOPLE FACEBOOK", WHICH IS JUST A BUNCH OF FACEBOOK SCREENSHOTS I DON'T GET, AND MY MESSAGE TO MY GRANDSON WAS ON THERE! TYPING IN ALL CAPS GOT ME HACKED BY THE INTERNET!
YOU FORGET TO TURN IT OFF[edit | edit source]
WHEN YOU'RE ON A COMPUTER, YOU ONLY HAVE TO CLICK "CAPS LOCK" ONCE AND BE DONE WITH IT. THAT SOUNDS GREAT, BUT THE LITTLE LIGHT IS HARD TO SEE. YOU'LL BE WRITING IN ALL CAPS, FORGET YOU HAVE CAPS LOCK ON, AND THEN WRITE AN ALL-CAPS E-MAIL TO YOUR BANK. THE BANK DOESN'T LIKE IT WHEN I SEND THEM ALL-CAPS MESSAGES; IT MAKES THEM CONFUSED AND OFFENDED WHEN ALL I WANTED WAS TO ASK HOW THE APP WORKS.
IT DOESNT AUTOCCORRECT[edit | edit source]
FOR SOME RESSON, WHEN TOU TUPE IN ALL CAPS, THE PHONES AUTOCCORECT FEATURE BREKAS AND THEM YOU END UP SENDING "BUST" INSTRAD OF "BUNDT" TOY OUR FRIENDS..I HAD TO SEND A WHOLE PRATAGRAH OF EXPLAINING TO DORTOTHY ABOUT HOW IA M NOT BRINGING BUST CAKES BUT BUNDT CAKES! SHE WAS SO CONFUSED AND I FELT LIKE SOME LIND OF WIERDO!
IT ALSO DOESNT SWITCH BACK TO ALL CAPS WHEN YOU GO TO TYPE A PUNCTUATION MARK; i FIND THIS VERY INCOMBENIENT BECAUSE I USE A LOT OF SEMICOLONS.
