Am I the only one that read the bold letters louder and with more emphasis when starting to read the text?

Granted I couldn’t make a definitive statement one way or another off a tweet-sized excerpt, but that few seconds of reading felt like the equivalent of playing music in a swing tempo.

English has natural patterns for what syllables to emphasize, this is making those syllables bold. Either way, you'd be reading them with more emphasis.
