"WHY THE HELL . . .?"
Writing in all-caps on the Internet is the equivalent of shouting in the Real World™
Yes, I recall now that once before a friend had so admonished me, adding that this convention is pretty much universal on the Internet. I shall hereafter do my best to restrain the guilty fingers; thank you for the timely counsel.
That said, I cannot help but wonder what the obverse might mean (i.e., using all lower-case letters, as in a handle like "zmjezhd"). Is the seeming Arabic flavor for real, or is that just faux flavor? And how in the world is it pronounced?
Chuckledore (technically a "stranger", but while I'm strange, I don't
really feel like a stranger here. . .)
