This post looks OK apart from the word "English" which should have a capital "E".

@HairbrushDiva CAPITALS ARE EVIL8 NEVER NEVER WILL I ABIDE BY THE SILLY CAPITAL RULES! ITS NO CAPITAL OR ALL CAPITAL! like the germans do!

@popmol Now you're just being silly.

@HairbrushDiva i do not think certain words deserve my capital letters above others! its capitalist! i told my dutch teacher and i have been at war with all of them since i was born!

and miss do you not know be my now? silly is the name and game!

@popmol "Deserve" does not enter into it. I attended a school whose attitude was "there is only one way to do anything and that's the correct way". We all had that drilled into us every day. It was a typical English school.

@HairbrushDiva haha yeah! well we had spelling tests where points were lost if you didn't place capitals right but it just won't go in my head, and whenever auto correct tells me look this country/ language needs a capital i'm like "bugger off"!

@popmol May I ask what is your reason for this aversion to capitals? I would appreciate it if your explanation is logical.
popmol · 22-25, M
@HairbrushDiva theres no particular reason, just weird rules about them also give importance to things i don't think are important :p for me a capital letter is way more powerful, and its clear, so use it for the first letter of a sentence is fine but random words or titles i don't particularly care :p

@popmol Proper nouns (i.e. names of people or places) are not random words.
popmol · 22-25, M
@HairbrushDiva names of people is reasonable and random places i don't mind either :p somehow countries languages and titles bother me!

@popmol Look, there is only one way to do anything and that's the [i]correct[/i] way. My name is Lisa, not lisa. I live in Manchester, not manchester. Does that make sense yet?

@HairbrushDiva relatively!
