 The sterotype golfer: a white old man who wears plaid, sweater vests, little hats with poppies on top, and is crabby. This driver wouldn't appear to fir that golfer. But it would, just like it fits me, just like it fits people who get paid to do what you all love. Don't get me wrong, I love plaid and sweater vests; I'm more classic in the looks department. So when you think this driver don't let your mind jump to "kids these days." If Rickie Fowler didn't look like hippie, then maybe people wouldn't see him with it and say, "What happened to golf." If ifs and buts were candy and nuts, every day would be Christmas, or Halloween in this case

 

What exactly is he saying?

I've actually been timed at 140 or 150 wpm for a paragraph or so. It took a few tries, and was kind of funny because the online test I was using kept giving me captcha tests to prove that I was human.

You are certainly NOT human. Geez.  Do you do any form of transcription for a living?

Heh, no, but I've spent more than my share of time at a keyboard.

You guys may be able to type 100WPM+, but I can go over 3,000 total typed words without any errors....without any error-sensing/checking.  FACT.

Sorry, I tried to take some video but it was a really bad day and I didn't have time to get a better one. This will have to do. Trust me, when I really get going I'm MUCH faster.

 

 

(by the way, a great place to practice typing is www.typeracer.com)

The phrase 'Woe betide' used to confuse me like hell at school. I always thought a guy called Wobie went around tying people up (who deserved it ofc). Being moderately deaf doesn't help, I guess haha. Eg:

Wobie tied any man who cannot use English properly on the internet.

This isn't really a spelling or grammatical error, but I had to post it:

There is a neurological condition called Synesthesia where some people believe they can.   In one of the forms those afflicted with it see colors and shapes associated with emotions when people speak.
