Dude, just be grateful they don't resort to animated .gifs, blinking text, or the motherfucking marquee tag. Thank the gods every day that people can not embed MIDIs in their facebook comments.

I was there, in the Geocities trenches, tour of '95. I saw that shit happen. It wasn't pretty. Not pretty at all.

I agree it is annoying, but Facebook doesn't give them any other way to emphasize words.

And I will use separate paragraphs as long as the thoughts are not connected. If that happens to be each sentence in a separate paragraph, so be it.

In general, the public is incompetent at almost everything.

I admit to falling prey to this loathsome disease, but only because Facebook doesn't let me bold, underline, or italicize when I need to emphasize a word.

I don't see how that's any less annoying than using caps for emphasis.
