I think some people don't know how the hell they put it on in the first place.

The caps make it easy to notice the lack of brain power...

It's like turn signals in the South.

If I see them on, I just assume they were already on when they bought the car.

Some people aren't capable of looking at the screen while they type, so they might type a whole paragraph before realizing their caps lock was on. So they're too lazy to go back and correct it.

And there are others who think all caps will make them appear younger or dumber than they really are.

What gets me is the people who refuse to start each sentence with a cap, even though they DO take the time to capitalize proper names and acronyms within those same sentences. Makes no sense. Here is an example:

yo i just installed a chip on my GTI, you think i can smoke Jared's WRX now? its a Neuspeed chip. good for maybe 50hp. shits tight dawg.

They're right.

I refuse to read anything in all caps. It's literally shouting to me, and I can't bring myself to read it. It's like helping someone shout at me. I just glaze, and move on.
