What is 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 - what is it?

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 on the keyboard that tweenie girls, newbies and the mentally unstable insist on pressing and using for their entire forum post/IM/text message for reasons unknown.

Perhaps they think it looks cool, or maybe they can't do joined-up writing yet and write in block capitals.

It is the most annoying button in existence.
