    I always type 'A' capitalized if it follows a (correctly)capitalized one, e.g.: W**A**rning. Moreover I quite often type **you** insted of your. Moreover I'm never able to close HTML TAGS because **7** doesn't make the job. Moreover... :)

      You should never have ever write 'private' in .NET, its implicit where applicable.

        That's really language specific. IIRC, with VB.NET public is implicit.

                      Once in a while instead of typing "this" I type "sh*t", but maybe I have digital tourette's or something like that. :-D

                                    retrun flase I think the funniest typos I make are when I type out a correctly spelled word, but it was not the word that I was looking for. work instead of word I used to type caren instead of caret, (ex-girlfriend, don't let my wife know)

                                      If the 'f' wasn't so close to the 'g' I would think that you were thinking a little too much about Alyson Hannigan

                                        1st day, 1st ever contract, I did exactly that. Not a good start.

                                          Hopefully it got better though! In a similar vein, I entered the username wakeman incorrectly whilst demonstrating to our new starter, Mr Wakeman, what his new login was. I think you can probably imagine what I mutated it to :omg:
