    You said:

    My brain censors out all caps, so anythign in all caps I can’t read.

    Right?

    Can you see all these caps?

      Clearly, English is incapable of having homographs. Caps and “Caps”, and all Caps and ALL CAPS. (sorry, Froggy, that last part was in all caps, which you can’t see, it said ‘all caps’)

      Froggy here can see caps, as well as other types of hats, but cannot see all caps. THEY Froggy, CANT we SEE love THIS you PART, but they can still see capital letters, since they don’t comprise the whole word. EXCUSE THE LACK OF APOSTROPHE IT WOULD COMPROMISE THE WORD

        So he can’t see all caps, but he can see some caps? So which caps can’t he see? Are they randomly chosen or is there a pattern?

        My brain censors out all caps

        I interpreted this as them being unable to see all caps, not only consecutive, but also free-standing in front of small letters. 😄

        ^Then I had a little fun with it.^

      Ma’am, this isn’t the Fallout universe where people use caps as a currency.

      Us in the real world use intangible currency backed by the nebulous “economy.” It’s value fluctuates based on vibes, and obviously nothing bad will ever happen as a result of that.
