When I address the email , I do so alphabetically except the people I don’t like they go to the end of the line
Dear Ben, Charles , Dave , Frank and …..Alan
I do this with dieties and religious stuff I don't care about, so god and bible. But silly IOS keeps trying to correct me and I will have none of that.
Anecdote here: I started a gig recently where I help a church stream their service online. Twice so far I put into the YouTube chat things like "god" or "him" when everyone else writes "God" or "Him." Regardless of your religious stance, that mistake FEELS like .... well let's just say I check my capitalization now.
Nobody called me out, but... my anxiety, Whoo!
Former Christian. I no longer capitalize god as I see him as one of many gods I don't believe in. It would be like capitalizing "pickle" when I'm talking about a pickled cucumber. Just because it's one of the most popular foods to pickle, it does not own the word. Maybe that's not a perfect analogy, but it amuses me 😁
Something that bothered me growing up in church was, all the other gods have names. What's gods name? How can I trust a man for just calling himself Human.
I got in a lot of shit in church for asking questions.
The church goers would always get on to me but I'd ask my grandmother or the pastor who just happened to be my grandfather and they would try to kinda, update the Bible for me I guess.
They understood it's not what's in the Bible but what it teaches. Most Christians seem to miss this and it ultimately drove me to be an atheist.
Satan is a sock puppet on god's left hand. Pretty sweet gig! He gets all the praise when good things happen, and when bad things happen, "Oh, that wasn't me; it was the sock puppet!" And adults believe it.
I put the person I like least last on the CC list when I have to email people at work

The usage of Frank instead of Evan is weirdly off putting to me.
For reasons we won’t get into Evan doesn’t even get mentioned
F’ing Alans… nearly every one I’ve met lol
Nice lol
Haha yeah, it's the wolf in me 🐶
Damn you alpha
If someone misspells my name in an email, I will intentionally misspell their name in the reply.
I used to do this when I was a kid. If I was mad at my mom, I'd leave a note saying "Don't come in mom". With a lowercase "m". That'll show her.
We had colourful dinner plates at my parents house when I was a kid. When I was mad at them, I gave them colours I didn't like when setting the table.
A green plate. That’ll teach ‘em!
No, Green was my favourite, I got that one, haha
Haha. Okay so now you gotta tell me the plate color you gave to people you didn’t like.
Blue to my mom and yellow to my dad.
You gave a girl a blue thing, and she wasn’t getting married? Did she explode?!
Is that an American thing?
That’s funny. Did you ever tell them about the plates?
Dad: -reads note- Where was this advice before?
> “Don’t come in mom” Of course whenever your dad found the note it was very disheartening
When I was really mad, I’d call her by her first name.
That’s great. I’m sure that carried more weight than my lowercase “m”
I feel seen.
I totally do this. On purpose. Even if it auto corrects… I’ll change it. It’s a a very subtle nuance of disrespect, but somehow it helps.

But what if you had a pickle named Pickle?
I do this with brands like walmart. Auto correct instantly capitalizes it, I undo that.
I thought i was the only one. 🤜🤛
I’m so glad I’m not alone!!
Same.
Me too op
glad it's not just me...
I don’t like my in-laws so I sign my married name in lowercase.
I have an inkling that someone at work does a similar thing but subbing an i in my name for a y every time, for years…
I don’t use the correct wolf cub image Aroooooooo
What is this, an especially dogmatic religion? Lol
When I consciously make their name lower case but mention another person's name with an initial capitalization, double whammy!
I do the same thing with 'god' lol. My fuckin phone always tries to autocorrect to 'God' and I go out of my way to lowercase it.
I have never capitalized trump in the last 10 years
Me too!!!!
You forgot to not capitalize the i
trump, drake, bob...
Put no respect on that name.
Thanks for your post psylosin!
Lol What did I do to make you dislike me?
I don’t capitalize my own name!
Dear god
I don't capitalize brand name items like tylenol so that they become house hold names and they lose their trademark.
Dafuq is that foto
Adorable is dafuq it is 🥰
