I have a feeling that I, as an atheist who is reading books about Jesus and the early church as a lover of history, may know more about the topic than she.
She's got me dead to rights, though, about guns. I don't need or want one and her having one would be the sign that I should exit.
Best part is knowing that he probably wrote a similar post about the crazy lady he got setup with. Both horrified, I'm sure.
What is with all these same type of people capitalizing almost every word? Is it just that they rely on autocorrect so hard?
EDIT: To Clarify, I Mean Capitalize Each Word, Not ALL CAPS.
I think it’s an indication of poor impulse control. They talk like this too.
Some People just write like that. It would be less infuriating if it were at least consistent or had some apparent Purpose to it like the archaic German-style Capitalization of Nouns.
They're copying the way Trump writes his tweets.
The PATRIOTS they listen to CAPITALIZE words for NO reason other than keeping their attention on IMPORTANT words. Its what they know.
It's just the way that sub 80 IQ people, usually but not always boomers, emphasize important words that they would pronounce emphatically while talking.
(I guess its always boomers if you use the 'boomer is a state of mind' definition: narcissistic, uninformed, misinformed, absurdly overconfident, infantilizing, extremely entitled, dismissive, never wrong about anything... you get the idea.
Moronic assholes.)
As to why they specifically do this style of written expression?
That's actually an interesting linguistic question, at least to me.
I think its very much an intentional choice, not a result of autocorrect.
Though almost none of the people that write this way do so on platforms that support a basic syntax / tag system to modify your font/text... but they are probably too stupid/ignorant to figure out how to use it anyway.
I know it existed before Facebook, on forums, often used by religious extremists and super patriotic types, but its mass proflieration on Facebook by boomers... if I had to guess, they read a bunch of shitty ads and posts that used this style, from the mentioned precuror belligerent reactionary forum posters, and then just started emulating it.
tl:dr; its a way of yell-talking, belligerent idiots often raise their volume and intensity for nearly every word they say, but then if you tell them to stop yelling at you, they'll say they aren't, because in their mind, they could have been even louder, and with every word.
I get the feeling granny is only about 38 years old.
Granny looks like a catcher's mitt.
Bullet literally and figuratively dodged.
Wow, that guy certainly dodged more than one kind of bullet.
Oh, she likes biblical knowledge quizzes, does she? Let's see if she knows 1 Timothy 2:12.
dmed you my contact information please pass it along to her
The whole thing about being unequally yoked is about forbidding animal abuse, but you do you.
2 Corinthians 6:14. Not that I believe this shit anymore, but that's not true. I've heard a number of in-depth sermons on this verse. Marriage partners being "unequally yoked", and how marriage partners need to be on the same team, pulling in the right direction, sharing the same values.
The original verse is Duet 22:10 and it's a prohibition against abusing a working animal.
I wasn't aware of the later Christian tradition of interpreting it as a metaphor for nonbelivers. Thanks for sharing it.
