      I always refrain from typing in all capital letters because of those reasons! Exclamation marks are very useful, as they can add a unique touch of humor into sarcastic comments, lol.

            I very often skip posts or messages that are written in all caps.

              Certainly but not on every damn interaction. It just comes off like the author is manic.

                Actually I don't think it does. Since it is now always used it means absolutely nothing to me except as a formality.
                It's like when people sign a message with "thanks." Okay, thanks for what? Oh, so "thanks" is now as meaningless a formality as "how's it going," which is never actually used to find out how someone is doing.
                English is ****ing stupid but Americans are even dumber for including !!!this in every goddamn written interaction.
                In my very humble opinion which means very little to most people, I think English is the best language in the world.

                        That way you can be all excited in the beginning instead of waiting to the end and then realizing you were supposed to be excited.

                          So if I know an exclamation point is coming, I'm supposed to get excited?

                            Well maybe it should be stopped since YOU do not the the logic in it.
