no corrections

How the hell am I supposed to know if I do any corrections? When I type, my spine or lizard brain or something feels when I hit the wring key before my brain does, and acts with a backspace accordingly. I couldn't stop it if I tried.

The line above contained three typos, and I was physically unable to stop myself from correcting them. (And this line had one typ... make that two typos.)

I know what you mean, THe backspace is an automatic reflex. Makes me onder (wonder) why i is (it is ) that ma (my) brain can see the typos coming in time to backspace almost immediately, but can't stop mk (making ) the bloody things.

Mihgt, in this case, also be the hydrodo (hydrocodone) and cyclobenzaprine. I'm very relaxed at the moment.

Know what's sad? i typed both of those with one hand, with a squirmy 2 year old in my latp. HAHA!!

If you can type that well with one hand, you've been on the internet too long...
 
my typing is awful, as most of you will know. I rarely edit my posts, I will backspaces on typos if i realise i have them, but though i can type ok, I have to look at the keys and not the screen so all sorts of things acan slip through unknown. actually, my spelling suckes anyway so some of these typos might indfact be just my bad spelling!
 
I couldn't write 90 wpm even if i knew how to type properly.

for the same raon (reason) I can't do cursive longhand.

Herrvous system's a little fucked up. rather like old fashioned phone systems, ther's a fair bit od noise on the line that interferes with communication between my brain and my fingers.
 
A good part of my job is typing in commands and requests, i screw up a lot, bt I've discovered that the point is not how often you mess up, but how fast you can correnct it. My whole work life is a computer and a phome.

The aboce is pretty bad, huh?
 
I type pretty fast too, so not many mistakes are made. I've never timed myself, but I'm betting it's around the 90 wpm mark.
 
my husband types really, really quickly, and never looks down at his fingers. Sometimes, I can tell his mood by the noise coming from his keyboard. I can tell when he's flirting, when he's having cyber sex *grins* or if he's pissed off. Just from the tap,tap,tap of his keyboard :D

Oh good. The RA;s not the only one that can tell when it's time to leave somebody alone by the sound of the keys.

he's told me quite a few times that he knows when to keep the kids away, especially if i'm pissy, just because the speed and force of ytyping changes.

i do that at first, and i speed up. Then when i get SERIOUSLY pissed it slows WAY down - think less than half normal typing speed. That's when the RA takes the kids and leaves the house for an hour or two. He's learned.

I worry if i hear quick typing then one, hard CLICK (an exclaimation mark or something) then a long pause followed by more frantic typing, big click, poause-ouch!

i don't do that. i don't actually beat the keyboard while typing.

It's more a frantic clicky clicky clicky clicky, enter, two or three second pause, more clicky clicky clicky... It people get me onto a touchy subjectr they tend to get blasted.
