Being Mr. Kenny

This is a great idea. Here is a Firefox extension that filters out the comments on Youtube based on the following factors (which you can set):

• 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

I love the way it lets you filter out profanities, but that’s the last on the list. The first one is spelling mistakes, and then capital letters and punctuation.

Draws attention to the fact that most people are idiots online. Especially when they’re allowed to be anonymous. E.g.: Youtube Sunshine.
