Ignore the CAPS nanny’s.

You’d think their eyes were allergic to CAPS.

You’d think their brains had to work overtime to process CAPS.

When actually, they are just prissy about a social convention that’s consumed too many folks too unwilling to enjoy the precious little DIVERSITY available in text & screen based communications.

They COULD decide that CAPS = raised eyes or that
CAPS = a seductive raised tone or that
CAPS = a twinkly eye’d tease or that
CAPS = a firm assertiveness . . .

. . .

. . .

INSTEAD, they feel COMPELLED in a PRISSY SCREAM to rant about CAPS = yelling.

Welllll whoooop-T-Doo.

I prefer my own dictionary, thank you very much.

Sheesh.

[one of my peeves—I love CAPS with my screen 4 feet from my Laz-Y-Boy comfortable head and aging eyes]
