you-tube-comment-snob

Youtube’s comment section. Where the least intelligent internet trolls usually congregate to trade witticisms like “OMG! U R SO GAYYYY!!!!” and “LOLOL”.

Until Chris Finke’s genius Firefox add-on: YouTube Comment Snob.

The elitist filter works like this: comments aren’t displayed, if they show any of the following symptoms of illiteracy:

* More than # spelling mistakes: The number of mistakes is customizable, and the extension uses Firefox’s built-in spell checker.
* All capital letters
* No capital letters
* Doesn’t start with a capital letter
* Excessive punctuation (!!!! ????)
* Excessive capitalization
* Profanity
