There is no such thing as "Pissed with a capital 'P' means drunk" and
"pissed with a lowercase 'p' means unhappy".
"It's Nice" vs. "It's nice".
"Nice" pronounced "nyce" means the same thing regardless of case. "Nice"
pronounced "neece" is a place name, so "I went to Nice" means the same
thing as "I WENT TO NICE". You could even write it as "i went to nice"
and people would understand what you meant.
The idea that the entire universe should have to change its rules
regarding switching between upper and lowercase just to satisfy a few
anomalies concocted by the master race is laughable.
Godwin's law fulfilled, again. Sad.
Excuse me, but I have not mentioned anywhere that Austrian corporal or
his political persuasions, so this law has not been fulfilled. Unless you
are telling me that all German people are cast from the same mould.
Try China vs. china
One is a country, the other is a type of ceramic.
I have already acknowledged that the same word can have a different meaning
in a different context, so the word "china" has a different meaning in "I am
going to China" and "this is made from china". However, in the same context
changes in case are irrelevant:
"I AM GOING TO CHINA" is the same as "i am going to china".
"THIS IS MADE FROM CHINA" is the same as "this is made from china".
