Whatcha Gonna Do

March 5th, 2010

Long before @The_Real_Shaq pointed out @Oprah’s sticky capslock, people were shouting on twitter. That hasn’t changed, and we’re happy to report that someone is finally doing something about it.

@capscop has taken upon him/her/itself to watch twitter for signs of shift-key impairment, and call those people out. Before any of you point out that @capscop is a bot, we know. We are making an exception to the “we hate bots because they waste bandwidth and ruin twitter” rule for this one, because we think it’s funny.

CapsCop hates capslock

 
CapsCop bio

The tweets themselves are pretty tame, so that’s not what makes us such a huge fan. The pure genius behind @capscop is the phone number in their bio. Yes, people call. Some of them are pretty funny as they defend their use of caps, or unleash voicemail venom because they were told to stop. @capscop shares these gems on their website.

What do you think of @capscop? Whether you love it, hate it or have no opinion whatsoever, go ahead and call 716-299-8487, and then tell us about it in the Comments.

Capslock holiday

We’re going to ask when this holiday is coming around again, and if there will be cake.

    I was worried knowing you guys disapprove of Twitter bots but was very happy to see that you support the cause.

    Constant capslockers beware: If I haven’t caught you yet I will!

    And I love getting voicemail from both haters and lovers of capscop. Bring it!

    It would be real funny if they had an episode on Cops where people got arrested for yelling. My sister yells all the time. The could arrest her.
