Caps Lock Day

October 22, 2026

Cap Lock key on a computer keyboard for Caps Lock Day on 22nd October

Caps Lock Day, celebrated annually on the 22nd of October, is a light-hearted holiday that pokes fun at the overuse of the Caps Lock key. Initially created as a joke by software developer Derek Arnold in 2000, Caps Lock Day encourages us to reflect on the importance of digital etiquette—reminding everyone that typing in all caps is often seen as shouting or overly aggressive in online communication.

While it’s a day of fun, Caps Lock Day also serves as a reminder of how we communicate in the digital age and the impact of tone in written conversations. It’s a great opportunity to inject a little humour into your day and maybe even press that Caps Lock key a little more than usual—but with a smile!

Here are some social media content ideas to engage your audience on Caps Lock Day:

  • Share funny memes or jokes about the overuse of the Caps Lock key.
  • Encourage followers to type a message entirely in caps for fun and share it.
  • Post a light-hearted reminder about digital etiquette and the importance of tone in online communication.
  • Create a poll asking followers if they ever accidentally leave Caps Lock on.
  • Share a fun fact or trivia about the history of the Caps Lock key.
  • Post tips for effective online communication and how to avoid misunderstandings.
  • Encourage followers to share their funniest Caps Lock blunders.
  • Share a playful Caps Lock Day challenge—ask followers to write a short message in all caps.
  • Highlight the difference in tone between typing in caps and lowercase text.
  • Share quotes or sayings that humorously poke fun at the Caps Lock key.
