When you are talking on some form of chat, (messenger, icq, talk, chatroom etc) and you accidentally hit the caps-lock key and don't notice before sending the message. (Caps in chat means that you are shouting)
Analogous to how someone with Tourette's syndrome will randomly yell (and often swear) in the middle of what they are saying.

Get the Cap-Tourettesmug. While playing a game like COD Zombies, you reload after shooting only one bullet while there are 59 bullets still in the clip.
Jackson: I have to reload.
Carson: You literally shot 2 bullets, you don't need to.
Jackson: I know, I have reload tourettes.
Carson: You literally shot 2 bullets, you don't need to.

Get the tourette's handmug. A person with Internet Tourettes is characterized by an uncontrollable urge to blurt out random messages in the form of a comment, an image, a gif, or a video.
Whether or not these messages are appropriate in any sort of context is up to said person.
Generally, this term can be applied to a wide array of people, but in most cases, it can be boiled down to two distinct types:
1. A shitposter who replies in an exaggerated way to a post for the sake of comedy.
2. A crazy person who immediately derails an otherwise normal conversation with utter nonsense for no (obvious) reason.

1. "We can't ever have a normal group chat, because every time Tom posts anything serious, George comes in with his Internet Tourettes and spams shitposts that have no relation to the conversation."
2. "Whenever I post a cute cat picture on Facebook, my friend with Internet Tourettes just HAS to chime in with conspiracy theories about the moon landing."
