Jesus, that's pretty awful.
Yeah it is. I like the way you didn't manage to get typing right once. "Tuping in frade -" is "typing in grade 9" I guess. With just a little more inaccuracy, you could have been checking if your nads were centred. :LOL:

No for the purpose of torifile's exercise you're supposed to just keep typing without worrying about mistakes. You're hitting the right keys but just throwing in the odd extra letter.

My sister and I used to have this game where we would write on the walls of our toy closet in the dark, and then see whose writing was more legible when we turned the lights back on. It would crack us up.

What was this thread about?

Ha! And just *when* is that then? Stream of consciousness is just about the 'last' thing I'd associate with *you*.

I've also had people ask how I can write without looking at the paper.
It's the same sort of thing as *not ever* looking down at one's hands when playing the guitar. I never look at my hands when playing; if I do, I mess up - every time.

Eh. Better than I expected.
It sounds like you have a lisp (or a really bad cold) when typing.

Nah. It's fun to read.

Hey, Bryson, is *that* how a rocket surgeon types?

Okay, let's see if I can type anything without looking. I think I would do better if I'd had more sleep last night, because as I'm typing along, I tend to drift into a trance. ZZZZZ.....

Whoa! No mistakes. Holy moly.
