Default Pofile this

Is there analysis for people that type a certain way or make a certain mistake typing:

i.e. ALWAYS typing "teh" instead of "the"

** please no flame or ragging even though I just sent a first airmail to do so **

Pofile instead of Profile?

it's just laziness. I 'always' type teh by accident, but never fix it, but if I was writing a term paper, I think I would correct it, so, techinically I don't 'always' do it.

I always use incorrect spellings for words, but thats just because I can't spell for [censored]. Except "Tomorrow" I hate when people spell that wrong.

It happens when you try to type fast or just confuse your fingers motions.

Not fixing it is either too much reliance on Spell Check or laziness.

Its probably a result of people thinking out their response as they type it and not bothering to go back and check their spelling....and in some cases grammar. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I cannot spell - I cannot type - cause it always bored me - I have a hrd time reading a newspaper article, but I can crab and fish for 8-10 hours srt8, poker too. -- but I am a math wiz!

I do think faster than I can type and talk at times. I have been OCD - but not when come to my clothes, house.

I am not lazy. I always have be doing something, have a new hobby or new obsession.

Anyone wanna try again?

Spelling in online forum postings only matters to those who are either, perfectionists with too much time on their hands, or newbies to the world of online communications who don't yet understand that no one cares about spelling as long as the message can be understood.

Actually, it doesn't bug me, only when they inject an 'a' into it.
