So I was reading Proggresica's signature, and thought "Should we start writing all nouns in dark red. Would that help? It would at least make all our ramblings nicer to look at.

What do you think?

No, its unpleasant. But if you really like highlighting nouns, speak german.

Far too tedious for Me, I suggest We capitalize all Nouns, just like the Germans do.

I did it for comedic purposes, but if you think I should be made some sort of hero, a king of language above Shakespeare and professional linguists, well, I graciously accept this accolade.

Cannot think of a name

Nah, it would make me think that all nouns are spoken by Jesus, that's just weird.

Well first I am championed as a hero of literacy and now I'm being compared to Jesus. I don't want to tell you what to think, but you're both on the right track.

Ha! You all keep highlighting pronouns. Pronouns =/= nouns! I win! :p
You're also missing stuff all over.

I suggest different colors for all parts of speech. :p
And I don't care if I got some of them wrong. Deal with it.
Genius.

I think literacy is spelled with one "t."
