I'm a fantastic typer, I use all my fingers with great
dexterity. I took a typing course in high school. I also
took a ''Brag About your Typing Skills'' course.

I get it off my mom, she was a secretary, types about
1,945,475 words per minute.

haha I'm the same way man I got the two finger action going
too, but I'm actually pretty fast with just two fingers.
It's around 50+ a minute for me I think.

But you gotta love those typing errors you are prown to get.

we were forced to take typing back in like grade 8....... i
fucking hated it
i could'nt type, i got a really low mark (which was uncommon
for me at the time)

but now that i have an unhealthy addiction to the
internet... my typing skill have never been better!

He would grade our speeds with minute drills, and I've
-quietly- type more words on after the minute was up,
increase my total.

I am badass, dude. Badass.

And I still am.

Don't bash the two finger typing, if your fast with two
fingers(like me) then stick with it. Oh and you better
believe I don't look at the screen when I'm typing, boo ya
go me!

lol no no no, you gotta look at the keyboard when typing
with two fingers, it's an absolute MUST i say.

lol Ophecks, I did the exact same thing as you. Thxfully my
teacher wasn't such a bish to cover up the keyboard, so you
better believe I was looking at it the majority of the time.

I type with 2 or three fingers, but I type extremely well
with those... I have gotten up to 70 or 80 words a minutes,
and I'm probably faster now as that was years ago... I type
without looking at the keyboard, and sometimes not even at
the screen and can still correct mistakes I made just by
feel...

yeah, I tried learning the right way to type, but I figured,
what's the point? I can already type good with a couple
fingers, and fast, so why go through the trouble to learn
how to type "right"...

i am a four finger typer and can type about as fast as
everyone else.

but i look at the keyb while i type, so i have lotsa typos.

BUT you tend to notice when you hit the wrong key, or two at
a time....
doesnt stop me from fuckgin up my typing tho.

i even have signature typos.
eg liek
and fuckgin or fuckign

i swear i never do them on purpose!

hmmm, well it's really 4 or 5 fingers for me... not two or
three... that's just insane typing 70 or 80 words a minute
with two fingers... :)

Hunt and peck huh? I type with both hands, I didnt think it
was worth learning until I started coding, then I realized
it pays off big time.

I type with about three fingers on my left hand and two
fingers with my right hand, should I think I'm gonna try to
force myself to do that.
