My laptop's keyboard has the letters worn off six or seven keys. And half of those sometimes do not respond. So I may start typing and end up with gibberish. Maybe a stiff vodka tonic and a nap would clear things up? Don't forget to rim the glass with fresh lime. | |||

I don't have that problem when using an actual keyboard, but I do experience it when typing on the screen of a tablet or phone. "If Gun Control worked, Chicago would look like Mayberry, not Thunderdome" - Cam Edwards | |||

Happens to me all the time. I chalk it up to either just thinking and not typing or some auto-correct when I save. I have went back and corrected many times. Sometimes an omission will completely change the meaning of the phrase. No you are not alone.  Thankfully, THIS forum interface will allow you to go back in for a while and edit without tagging you as an idiot (saying this was edited) immediately.  | |||

It's not just you, Q. Rare is the post I make that I don't have to immediately edit, in order to correct a typo, spelling error, or word omission. I ALWAYS review my posts immediately to see what I screwed up this time! suaviter in modo, fortiter in re | |||

I'm right there with ya. I need to re-read emails, text messages, forum posts, etc, at least a few times to make sure I haven't zipped through a message and left out some words.

I’ve had autocorrect do some seriously funky shit. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear.

That would seem to be the answer. But I will admit that although I draft most posts of more than a sentence or two in Word, I am constantly amazed by how many mistakes I don't discover until after I've posted them. ► 6.4/93.6 “It is peace for our time.” — Neville the Appeaser | |||
