caps lock

An aggressive, or excited attitude characterized by its loudness. The term originates from electronic communication. Sentences and words spelled with the Caps Lock button turned on --in other words, all upper-case-- is the modern written equivalent of shouting at someone. It usually signifies anger, or sometimes intense excitement.

Kelly looked at Lisa incredulously. For a moment she was speechless. "WHAT THE HELL?! HOW COME YOU CAN'T MAKE IT TO JAKE'S BIRTHDAY PARTY?!" Lisa, startled by Kelly's shouting, replied, "Why you gotta get all caps lock on me?!"

caps lock

A key that can be as little as 7/16'ths of an inch away from the mighty "A" key, yet, many do not know how to find it when their letters are in ALL CAPS.

I can't give a proper example, because if I try, then UrbanDictionary says:

We found an error in your definition.

* Example is written in all caps

caps lock abuse

Caps lock abuse is just randomly typing in capital letters. This is no just using caps lock for important information, like:
WARNING: IF YOU CLICK THIS YOU WILL DIE.
That makes at least some sense. Caps lock abuse is more just rambeling nonsense that people use just to:
A. piss people off.
B. draw attention to themselves.
Sometimes, these people are just idiots that can't figure out how to get the caps lock thing off. Or maybe they just like typing in caps.

mrszjojonasz: HII MY NAME IISZ BAWB LOL UM I LIKE CHOCOLATE AND PONIIESZ AND THE JONAS BROTHERSZZZZ
theycallmeme: Get your hand off the caps lock button.
mrszjojonasz: WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
theycallmeme: You are an example of caps lock abuse. Goodbye.
