What's with the 1s?

Whenever I see a long string of exclamation marks, there's always a few ones in there.

Can people really not hold down shift very well?

Re: What's with the 1s?

It's making fun of some guy who did it.  You can also put random numbers in there, like;
THIS!!1!!1!1one!11eleventy!1fifty-two!!1!one11!!!!111!

Because they didn't hold down the shift key enough.

Re: What's with the 1s?

It started as an accident, then people started doing it intentionally, and then they started doing things like THIS!!11!122@!@1212121!212!!!!!one!!!!!


Yawn.

Re: What's with the 1s?

It's facetious, usually. Sometimes you just accidentally release the shift key early, but if you see 1's interspersed between the exclamation points, (like so: "!!!!11!!!1!!!!1!!") then it's just a joke on people who post with too many exclamation points and don't bother to make sure there's no typos. (This is especially true when you add "one" or "eleven".)

Re: What's with the 1s?

Sometimes, people are trying to post quick, thus holding down shift but releasing at random times. Other times it's intentional.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Re: What's with the 1s?

Ones signify oneness
Ones signify bossness
Ones signify winnage
Ones signify the need to emphasize exclamation marks much more than they need to be


TL;DR:
Ones are epic!!!11!1!!!!11!!!11oneone11!eleven1!

Um, yeah, my finger often slips of the shift key when I have to type long lines of !s.

Re: What's with the 1s?

Whenever I do it, its a joke. Can you acidentally type 'one' while typing '!'s? XD It's impossible, unless you have tentacles growing from your body that have a mind of their own and know how to spell.
So unless you're Dr Octagonapus I doubt it. xD
