I'll take that bet. Only Brits and self-righteous Canadians are that pompous and anal-retentive. We Americans are just lazy.

Originally by: Watyu Every time I see a thread/post where the author doesn't use a capital letter at the beginning of a sentence it annoys me for some inexplicable reason. This isn't an attack on those doing it, just giving a heads up that it's poor grammar for no real reason. How hard is it to hold your shift key while you enter the first letter of your thread title? Not doing so can make your thread look foolish even if the points made within are brilliant and thought out.
So stop doing it!
ee cummings is my hero, so no, i won't be indulging your need for capitalization

So who called the grammar police? Honestly, does anyone really expect anything on a forum, especially from a troll, to have proper punctuation and capitalization? And why stop there? Why not get on them about diction and syntax and spelling, or better yet, the proper use of gerunds and prepositional phrases?

Originally by: Esamir I've Met A Few People Who Inexplicably Capitalise The First Letter Of Every Word
As You Can See, It Causes The Text To Be Rather Strange And Difficult To Read. God Alone Knows What Causes This Particular Abberation.
While it is annoying, it does have it's legitimate reasons sometimes. Speech-To-Text engines for disabled people usually capitalize every word. I dunno why, but they usually do. I've encountered a fair bit of those on the internet ----- Why doesn't anyone ever read the forums before posting?
