    It’s for emphasis, most likely. Italics would have been the more common option, but it still gets the point across this way.

      It’s just jarring which is why it has emphasis. I feel like people don’t give a shit about grammar anymore. Commas are in random places, and no one knows what a proper noun is.

        It’s not bad grammar, it’s more like an internet dialect. Reminds me of fantasy books that capitalise special nouns

      I sincerely thought she was referencing song titles, so I’m gonna have to slightly disagree that it DOES get the point across 😄

        My first thought was it’s some kind of code. But BMHGADHD doesn’t ring any bells nor any anagram solvers yield any result

            A habit from playing online riddles, I guess, to run everything strange through ROT13 and anagram solver. Should’ve been obvious that it’d be fruitless, though, given that there’s only one vowel.
