Re: capitalization is overrated

Someone posted a thought.

Someone criticized him for not using capital letters.

You said it was just as powerful without them.

I said, I disagree, that it takes power away.

You and others jumped in with petty and defensive responses.

Arrogant? Where do I say I'm better than anyone? The guy posted what, judging by people in Davis Square and previous posts on this journal, should've been a popular opinion and got pissed on. Part of that was because he came across like an asshole, part of that was because of how he typed. People may have understood what he was saying, but more than a few dismissed it because of how he said it. That's the power of the written word for you.

Petulant child? You're the one who started rolling their eyes like a kid who was told he'd get no ice cream until he finished his vegetables.

...yes. and then you proceeded to say that, "Language is only a form of communication because of the shared rules. Otherwise howe, ohooow ewijonf."

which is an absurd comment.

as i've repeatedly established.

or maybe i can put it in a form that you understand:

sljfsljfsljflsjfslsjflsfj?

are you done yet? i know i am.
