In many instances of text where an i should be capitalized, The Brothers Chaps have left it as lowercase. This originated with Strong Bad's handwriting; the font used (ahnberghand) has no capital i, so any time Strong Bad needs to write one, it ends up being lowercase. The most famous instance is in dragon, where he labels his drawing TROGDOR the BURNiNATOR. Over time, Strong Bad's handwriting was used more and more, and the lowercase i was seen more frequently. Then at some point it crossed over to other fonts. It soon became evident that TBC decided to make most uppercase i's lowercase, no matter what font was being used, as an inside joke.
