Does anyone know why people type in all caps? I can't figure it out. I ask because I constantly see people do this . . and it boggles my mind. It's almost impossible to read - so there must be some explanation for why people think that this is the appropriate way to type.

And I'm not trying to bag on anyone who types like this . . I'm just honestly curious whether anyone has tried to figure out and explain this phenomenon of the internet.
