O.T. CAPS LOCK DAY

"CAPS LOCK DAY 2011: Celebrate Capital Letters!
The Huffington Post | Steven Hoffer First Posted: 06-28-11 11:32 AM | Updated: 06-28-11 11:37 AM

Technology News GUESS WHAT? IT'S INTERNATIONAL CAPS LOCK DAY!

The humorous holiday, which encourages Internet users around the world to engage in ordinary correspondences with the Caps Lock button engaged, was created by a man named Derek Arnold, who first celebrated the day on October 22, 2000.

"International Caps Lock Day is in fact a testament to the small mindedness of certain Western individuals: the majority of the world's population writes in scripts which have no concept of letter casing," Arnold explained to The Next Web. "Therefore it is advised to laugh at anyone who invokes this day as an excuse to dismiss local typographical conventions: they are simply making an ass out of themselves."

On June 28, 2009, a second CAPS LOCK DAY was instituted to commemorate the passing of infomercial icon and remarkably loud pitch-man Billy Mays.

That's right, you get two CAPS LOCK DAYS a year! But no matter which date you're observing, "CAPS LOCK DAY IS A CELEBRATION OF LIFE AND FOREVER SCREAMING TEXT FOR ALL ETERNITY AND LOVE," according to the self-proclaimed SELF PROCLAIMED OFFICIAL HOME PAGE OF CAPS LOCK DAY."

Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting: "Wow what a ride!"

I REFUSE TO PARTICIPATE IN SUCH A SILLY EVENT.
Thinking of quitting CPAP?

No problem, here's the first thing to do when you quit:


Advanced funeral planning. When you give up CPAP, you'll probably need it.
