Proper or common, start of the sentence or not. It drives me insane, and I know that I should be a little more gracious about something so minuscule. But I don't know how much more I can take. The event that sent me over the edge today was the capitalization of Month and the lack of capitalization for Batman in the text, "Can we pre-order batman for next Month?"

What is this? What godforsaken world do I live in where the rules of grammar have been thrown to the wind? Why am I such a poor judge of hiring? Who can institute order into this world fueled by pure anarchy?

Maybe he's secretly trying to share the disrespect for Batman that he has harbored, buried deep within, for years.

My first thought was that he was raised in a German-speaking household, but he was not.

I expected Everyone to follow my Lead here just to troll Scarlet, but I suppose I will have to bear the Burden alone.

There was someone who commented a ton on the MTG Gatherer (the online card database) years ago who would capitalize Every Single Word.

It basically drove me insane

Would you rather have Boomers who "earn" ten times your salary and "insist" on using quotations for "emphasis"

My biggest Boomer Issue is how They treat an Ellipsis like it's a Period for every single Sentence.

I get more emojis and ellipses from the Gen X owner of the shop. I do hate overuse of ellipses a lot, but he's so absolutely hands-off that I don't deal with it too much.

I work in technical support and sometimes I capitalize random nouns so they stick out to the idiots I'm talking to.

So he might just think you're an Idiot.

I had to teach him that Booster Gold comics get filed under B and not G.

I've Seen Angry Emails From Disgruntled Employees Capitalize Every Word To Try And Emphasize The Importance Of Their Complaints But Really All It Does Is Solidify My Perception That These People Are Incredibly, Incredibly Stupid

how do you know it's not a proper noun every time

he doesn't mean next month, whichever one it may be. he means specifically the next time Month comes around.
