        Oh yeah for sure, I don't know why your boomers do it, but I'd just like to say that when you encounter users doing it here for example, it might also just be that they're not Anglos.

          Out of curiosity, what language capitalizes words like this? I know German capitalizes every noun, but this post seems arbitrary in the way it uses uppercase letters.
