Are there any typos you find yourself making many times? (Not from being unable to remember the spelling of the word, but from clumsy fingers)

The thread title has 2 of them Just often comes out jsut, and because can be becuase, beacuse, becasue, beacsue, etc. I don't know what it is about those words

I also tend to type the wrong word sometimes, like than/that and it/is.

my most frequent ones are when my left hand moves faster than my right hand for whatever reason. Just now I typed wahtever instead of whatever. Most commonly it is teh instead of the. I wonder why this is though, I am right handed so you would think my right hand would type faster than my left. I wonder if there is any stats on this anywhere...

Yes, a lot. I type really fast and sometimes I'll type the wrong letter. Thankfully I can also hit backspace fast.

I also type words that I am thinking instead of the actual word that I want to type. Really annoying.

Tiem, maek, and liek. Which makes me sound like I'm trying to speak like a LOLcat or whatever.

Oh, this post reminds me: "speka" in place of "speak".

I have disastrous typing abilities. For some reason, my hands don't want to move particularly fast and my brain gets ahead of my hands and I start to combine words and stuff. Other than that, just randomly missing keys, hitting the wrong keys, misalignment, etc.

I tend to make quite a few typos when I first get on the computer, I'll misspell just about every website, especially Youtube for some reason. After about 5-15 minutes, though, I become attuned and it doesn't happen as much.

I can type without tusing the backspace button, but I'm so used to using it. It's like a reflex action to backsoace.

I also tend to edit my old posts that have spelling errors, which may seem funny if people scrutinize edit dates

I've done this before.

I'm just used to hitting the back button that I don't even need to look for it.

I do the same exact thing. I'll also randomly hit the edit button and rephrase parts of my post if it sounds a little funny. I'm OCD as hell when it comes to posting

Yeah, and recently I even did it to change a 2 to a technically-correct II (as in Zelda II)

Zelda 2 and Zelda II are usually viewed as the same game, though.

And yes, I go as far as to correct typos in frigging IRC and AIM of all places.

I do that too Sometimes I'll even try to correct extra spaces and such. Like *-space and so on.

And I used to call Zelda II "Link"

I only really make typos when I stop thinking of what I'm trying to say. I'll also make some stupid typos if the keyboard is too small.

When I do make typos, I usually see it before I post it, though there are some typos I've made that I didn't catch.

Also, I easily hit the wtong letter, as you can see in these examples.
