It's not literal hearing. It's kinda like the apple. Only instead of visualizing the apple, I'm visualizing shouting because that's the association made with all caps. There's a barrier there when I'm reading it off an actual phone and that barrier is gone when it's input directly into my head.
Oh I know! Imagine you're thinking of a balloon, right? And then you get distracted and the balloon in your mind pops and you flinch! You didn't actually hear anything, but it's almost like you did.
I think I get it now. Anyway, sorry! I didn't mean to be loud.
Aww, that's sweet of you! I don't mind adjusting, though. But what's wrong? Are you sick or something? Do you want me to bring you some soup or medicine?

I'll disconnect next time I'm not in the mood for all caps. Then you can keep using it all you want.
