iF yOu tYpE lYkE tHiS, use weird fonts, colors that are pale and low-contrast in your typeface, center-justify prose writing, or never use capitalization or punctuation, you are NOT showing how unique, individualistic, and special you are ( Read more... )

I am far from a grammar nazi. But that type of tYpE annoys the fuck out of me. Maybe it is because we are old and just don't get it.

No, maybe it is because we read for content. This kind of crap pissed me off when I was in grammar school.

I know. I mean is it too much to ask people to talk straight and plainly?

With all of what I read each day (probably about 100 pages of text), anything that slows me down is problematic.

A lack of punctuation or capitalization is fine on a text message, but in an on-line journal, isn't it good form to consider the audience who reads your material, and make it as easy as possible for them to read what you have to say?

A person who has to "try" to be an individual will never be one. You hae nothing to worry about. Your voice comes across just fine.
