I'm pretty sure this and out of place quote marks are taught in management courses so you know how to hastily type up a sign to tape onto a broken checkout line/bathroom/etc.

Hilariously I only started subconsciously doing this after taking German as my HS language credits.

Well at least for us it's easy to do the casing in titles. /0\

Someone's gotta pick up your slack, buster.

Just Gotta balance It Out By capitalising unimportant words Instead So That They cancel each other out.

I’m pretty sure that was a thing Margo did in ‘Paper Towns’.

Excuse me Sir, but Capitalizing important Words is how our Founding Fathers wrote The Constitution.

They call it Twitter Standard Format even though Twitter is still around and still called x, the everything app

That’s how they write in COMIC BOOK dialogue bubbles.

Haha, you’ll get to capitalize like us Europoors. Only dumber

When ever I see a dystopia setting with America turned into a corporate owned hellhole I always thought there's no way people would let that happen.

OK I admit I was wrong, now fucking turn it off.

It sure feels like some folks were reading snow crash like a to do list instead of a distopia.

We’ll be like the Germans and their capitalization of nouns.
