i don't understand why people feel the need to capitalize improper nouns. it bugs the shit out of me.

i just received this email:

Quote :
"I’m taking ½ day Vacation this afternoon. I’ll be at Home, preparing for a Slumber/Trick or Treat Party at our House tonight, if anyone needs to reach me.

Happy Halloween!!! "


now, this guy is pretty awesome, we're friends and everything... but WHY?!!!?!?!

I agree that that is annoying. However, someone who doesn't bother to capitalize the first word of a sentence shouldn't be criticizing anyone who makes this mistake.

i do that as a matter of principle - i have a personal vendetta against capital letters.

as for business emails, though - i always use proper capitalization.
