The number of people i'm seeing use caps lock instead of shift to do capital letters have been increasing. "Oh you can do that?"

What goes around…apparently. My 57 year old co-worker does the same thing and it drives me batty.

There was this one kid I knew from school many years ago who used the caps lock to make capitals claiming it was easier cause you didn't have to hold it down. Like bro… just use sticky keys
