Ah, it's that wonderful time of year again: the leaves are changing, the air is getting crisp, and children everywhere are looking under their keyboards to see what treats they've scored in honor of International Caps Lock Day. Invented by greeting card companies to fill the void between Trafalgar Day and Mole Day, Caps Lock Day is the one occasion when lovers of capitalization can come together with the haters from
CAPSoff and
hack-a-day and pay homage to the little key that habitually blows up your spot when trying to type a lower-case "a." So go ahead, join in the fun, and make sure to annoy everyone on your buddy list by acting like a n00b and "shouting" all of your messages to celebrate this holiest of days.

I DISAGREE ON THE HOLIDAY! EVERYDAY SHOULD BE CAPS LOCK DAY!
THE THING I REALLY HATE IS WHEN PRESSING THE INSERT BUTTON AND THEN YOU GO BACK TO FIX A TYPO AND YOUR TEXT GETS REPLACED. I HATE THAT SO MUCH, THANK YOU MS WORD!
WELL HAPPY CAPS LOCK DAY FROM HALLMARK!

I NEVER UNDERSTOOD HOW IT IS YELLING. PEOPLE THAT ARE AGITATED BY CAPLOCK SHOUTING ARE JUST A BUNCH OF LIBERALS WHO THINK THEIR OPINION REALLY MATTERS. I SAY BUY GUNS AND MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
Jeff T @ Oct 22nd 2006 2:39PM
WOW. THIS IS SO LAME. YET AWESOME AT THE SAME TIME. TOO BAD EVERYDAY ISN'T CAPS DAY. TYPING SCHOOL ESSAYS IN CAPS AND SEEING TEACHER REACTIONS WOULD BE PRICEESS.
Jesse @ Oct 22nd 2006 2:45PM
I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE YELLING ABOUT!

tiuk @ Oct 22nd 2006 3:10PM
Am I the only one whose inner voice actually "yells" when they're reading something typed in caps? For me, that's what makes it so annoying.
Othello @ Oct 22nd 2006 3:11PM
ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THAT THE LAST POST IN CAPSOFF IS ANNOUNCING A CONTEST HE NEEDS TO RAISE MONEY FOR? WONDER WHAT HAPPENED THERE.

YAA FOR CAPLOCKS. THEY HELP US VISUALLY CHALLANGED PEOPLE TO SEE.
Seamus Bartlett @ Oct 22nd 2006 4:24PM
You know, the Logitech G-15 keyboard has its CAPS LOCK key smaller, and farther away from the A key, so it's not really a problem anymore. The future, it is here.

HEH, IT SEEMS I HAVE TURNED MY CAPS-LOCK KEY INTO A CONTROL KEY, SO TYPING THIS WITH A SHIFT KEY IS NOT AS MUCH FUN.
John C. Randolph @ Oct 22nd 2006 4:31PM
I am so bloody sick of keyboards with that stupid caps lock key where the control key belongs. Who was on this ISO committee anyway? A pack of 419 spammers?

dave @ Oct 22nd 2006 4:36PM
IF YOU"RE GOING TO JUST HOLD THE SHIFT KEY< DON"T USE CONTRACTIONS OR PUNCTUATION>
