Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Typing was a freshman requirement in my high school for all students.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I took typing because my only other choices were Home Ec and study hall. It was my very best high school decision.

Mostly lurking...
Zen, that font post from Erin was on twitter, I think.
I love reading all the test typing. I've missed you guys!

Thrive to spite them
I'm typing with my eyes closed to see how well I can do it. I ofetn make mistakes but usually it's because I have a brain freeze and forget where a key is, or at least think I don't know where a key is and really I do.
There's a cool typing game aI can link to where you practice typing quotes and phrases from books, poems, tv shows and movies. In cluding stuff like Firefly and Star Trek and Emily dickinson.
Here it is - Key Hero [link]

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Touch typing is why I have to have a phone with a physical keyboard, and that's just thumb typing. Typing traditionally I learned my great speed and relative accuracy (I do correct a lot, but on the fly, and it's still faster than lots of people.) by text based mmorpgs. To this day I sometimes accidentally type "parry" because it's one of the most reflexive combat moves in my hack & slash.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Typieng with my eyes closed, but I have to spell words out to yepe them. It slows me down a lot.
Not too bad...

I spend all day being overwhelmed with new job information, and you people start going on about touch typing?
Fine, this sentence is typed with my eyess closed. However, I will not try to sew on any buttons with my eyes closed, because that's just asking for trouble.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I took typing and shorthand for two years in high school. Often I was the only boy in the class. This did not suck for teenaged me.
Plus, I can type 95+ wpm.
