[QUOTE=Indistinguishable] No, they’re not. They’re upper-case 'I’s, right and proper, ‘I’ as in “Igloo”, though rendered without horizontal bars in the SDMB font. (Ironically, this _does_ become clear if you copy the message and prepare to post it to the SDMB, since, at least on my computer, the edit box for posts uses a font where upper-case ‘I’ has horizontal bars) [/QUOTE] For those who despise the ridiculous SDMB Trebuchet font, and prefer a much more readable Tahoma or Verdana, here are instructions for changing your IE7 style sheet: [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8779545&postcount=47](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8779545&postcount=47). (Instructions for other browsers can be found in the same thread.) ETA: The aforementioned fonts distingish Ls from Is, and carry other advantages as well, such as bolding that looks bold, etc. The edit box uses Tahoma. ---

[QUOTE=Colophon] Everyone seems to have missed the part that pretty much tells you the answer: > [@](#): > > Repost this with the title “what’s wrong here”, and when you click "post ", the answer will be really obvious. (Although again, you could argue that there should be a question mark. And a capital letter.) [/QUOTE] I think everyone saw this, and didn’t know what it meant. Why don’t you tell us? Or was it originally, as I suspected, just meant to be a ruse to get people to keep pointlessly posting this all over? ---

I believe this comic is appropriate: > **[Words that End in GRY](https://xkcd.com/169/)** > > The fifth panel also applies to postmodernists. ---

Or was it originally, as I suspected, just meant to be a ruse to get people to keep pointlessly posting this all over? [/QUOTE] I think that it’s meant to be a comment on how stupid the person posting it is. Once you post the thing with no errors because you were told to by let you let everyone know you’re a moron. So “What’s wrong here?” is refering to either on facebook, the internet, or with the person posting as an insult. Kind of clever of whoever thought it up, but I think most of the people there will miss it. ---

Or if we’re just used to Facebook posts that look like that… I’m surprised the capitalization was consistent and the title of the quiz were spelled correctly. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/facebook-quiz-aaa-bbb-ccc/429920.md?page=1)
