Importance of Capitalization | Tennessee Valley Talks

CageTheElephantPost Master

In the world of hi-tech gadgetry, I've noticed that more and more people who send text messages and emails have forgotten the art of capitalization.

For those of you who fall into this category, please take note of the following statement:

"Capitalization is the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse, and helping your uncle jack off a horse."

Is everybody clear on that now?

ROFLMAO.

no worries here, i don't have an uncle jack, nor a horse.

while i'm one of the most guilty for the lack of caps, this made me LOL.

i don't text - don't even own a cell phone. do not want one. hate the things.

i just don't see the point. i'm not writeing a thesis or a novel. this isn't going to be graded. i'm an adult and if i don't wanna use caps or precise exacting grammer then i ain't a-gonna.

it's not a lack of knowledge or ability, it's a lack of interest.

I just get my girls to text for me. As if I could see that tiny little screen! Elb will tell you, I need an editor for any text messages I send.
