  1. Definitely. It seems like they are being childish if they don't. Makes you get a bad impression of them.


  2. no. sometimes I'm too lazy to cap.  Kidding!!

  3. Ohmygosh yesss! haha. I hate it

  4. totally. you wouldn't believe how annoying it is.

  5. I'm not bothered by capitals too much but my pet hates are abbreviations and incorrect spelling and grammar. Especially when it is done on purpose.

  6. I don't get annoyed by it, I just make sure that I do it myself so I don't need to worry about if I'm leaving a good impression through my text.

    I usually try to make sure my text is as well punctuated as can be. Whether it be a comma, or a period, or a capitalized letter. As long as I'm doing the right thing through my text, everyone else can write the way they want.

  7. No not really but I can't stand people who don't use any punctuation, its almost like you have to break it up in your head to make sense. I'm not a big fan on abbreviating either or when people start writing words weird, for eg. like = lyk. This one person really frustrated me they mixed caps in the whole thing so it looked like this. tHIs iS ComPlEtLY ReTaRDeD and it wasn't even in a certain way, as in every second letter, it was just all over the joint.

  8. hmmm i really don't care. haha. this is not something formal is it? so why do you have to bother they're letters.  

  9. It only annoys me if I'm the one not capitalizing the sentences.

  10. Mmm sometimes yeah... but what I really hate is when people mix up there, their, and they're.

  11. no, i hate capital letters .

  12. Omg. It actually does bug me. I hate that with a passion. How hard is it to press shift key or caps for one letter???

    I agree with you 100%.

    =)

  13. Yes, that annoys me alot.

  14. you're an idiot.

    DOEZ THAT ANNOY U LOL??@/23

  15. This is a petty answer, but... u need something better to worry about.

  16. no

  17. No cuz I usually do lol. But look right there! I capitalized :) Happy?

  18. I don't get annoyed... I don't really care...

  19. I despise incorrect grammar! I admit, I get a bit slack sometimes and leave out all my apostrophes.... but I cannot stand it when people cannot tell the difference between you're and your... grrrrr so irritating!

    I probably have a spelling error somewhere. I spell good. But type too quick. Bipolar speeeeeeeeeeed!

  20. ummm NO!

  21. Depends on the situation, but I do believe that Yahoo! Answers has destroyed the English language.

    If you ever feel too good about society, just go to Yahoo! Answers.  Look at the majority of questions, and try to figure out how these people manage to breathe.

  22. Always!!!

    Like the above person I hate questions with poor grammar.

  23. sorry, i am that guy, and i don't use capital i when i refer to me!

  24. mos' deff'

    Sorry,I'm kidding . Yes,it annoys me quite a bit .

  25. Why are you asking this question in the Mental Health Category? Do you think it qualifies as a mental illness?

  26. I actually get more annoyed at the stupid abbreviations.  People abbreviate the smallest words.  Is it really worth sounding like an idiot so you don't have to type 2 extra letters?

    Capitalization is not that big of a deal, to me.  If I can understand it, that's fine.

  27. Nope.
