Random Capitalization

Really, I don't get it. I checked all the grammar rules available in the Internet, and I don't see anything about capitalization of common nouns, pronouns and adjectives located in the middle or the end of the sentence. Is it like a trend or something? I tried it for a while, because I saw a so-called grammar freak use random capitalization, and I assumed, "Okay, this must be some new rule in grammar". But I got so freaked out about it, so I stopped after a few months.


Can somebody explain to me what Random Capitalization is all about??


Examples: Her Sister is so funny. There's something wrong with that Woman.


PS > I am a English Instructor now, so I really need to know. :) I don't remember random capitalization being taught in school. If it was, I must have skipped classes or something. HAHA.

PPS > Ang bad ko, nagbblog ako sa work. :P

  1. I get it now. It's like, if you want to emphasize a point, you capitalize the word. I mean, it sort of looks cool, like Old English writings, but I don't think I'm going to use it for academic purposes just yet. HAHA. Maybe just for blogging.

    Oops, gotta go. I'm not supposed to be doing this at work. HAHA
