Both really get on my nerves when they're overused. Sometimes I use all caps when I get excited(like the person above me)but I quickly go back to correct grammar. When it's used constantly, it's like they're yelling at you all the time, which gets very annoying.
When someone uses lowercase all the time, they just seem retared or something lol. No offense to anyone.

I hate both.
All caps is like screaming. And I'm like, "What'd I do wrong? D:"
All lowercase is annoying because I use caps as a way to separate sentances. Like if it's in caps I condsider it a new sentence (The 'I' is an exception). Therefore all lowercase seems like one big run on sentence. This is also why I hate people that use caps on Every Word Even Though It Doesn't Need It. D:
It especially annoys me if you type a paragraph out like that, then I just skip the whol thing because my brain has trouble processing it.
Don't get me started on proper grammar, too.

I love grammar, therefore both things bother me. All caps is just plain hard to read, and if people don't have punctuation in the right places, I can't read it, it just doesn't make sense! I mean, I understand if people are a little more lax on here. Sometimes I don't capitalize in the right places, but I try to be as proper as possible, otherwise I can't understand it myself. I dn't now hwo ppl cn riad stff liek dis. ((Is it sad that I had to think about typing that?))
One thing that irks me is you type like that to save time, right? But if you're on ChickenSmoothie, what on earth could you possibly need time for? If you don't have enough time to type out all your words and put in periods, obviously you shouldn't even be on, there's no time!!!!
One more thing: What's Even Worse Is When People Capitalize The Beginning Of Every Word. I've Never Seen It On This Site But Someone Does It On A Different Site And It Drives Me Insane. Why Would You Even Bother To Do It Like This? My Shift Finger's Hurting From These Few Sentences!

So, yeah. 8U I don't mind all lowercase if grammar is still running high, however. it's still readable this way, isn't it?

I dislike any grammatical oddities in writing. They really bother me. *laughs*
I dislike the all caps thing, because in internet shorthand, it is rude and considered yelling.
I dislike the all lowercase thing, because ... it's just annoying and looks silly.
I Also Dislike Capitalizing Every Word In The Sentence. I.. have no explanation for this other than that I don't like it.. perhaps also because I'm inherently lazy and it seems like too much work hitting shift at the start of every word.
I feel really judgmental now. *laughs* But there you have it.
