Yep, sure enough, Aslans_Jewel. That non-space is in my book as well.
At the moment, the choice would be simple.I can survive just fine without either of them.
Eep, that was so hard to actually type without a space. It went against every grain in my editing body, and leaves me with a loopy and very unsettled feeling.
Warrior, the words cuc/cucs are really common here as short forms for 'cucumber'. And I like how it sounds too, wolfloversk.

I make soooooooooooooooooo many typos and I'm sure all of you have noticed. Its just that I'm so excited to say something that I rush. So I end up with a million typos.

I try to avoid as much typos as possible. But when I write to fast is particularly hard to do so. Sometimes I tend to write adn instead of "and". I don't whether to chuckle or to frown.

I just want to be hidden in the shadows... this silence; this cold.
One of our favorite typos at my work (a marketing agency) was something that should have read, "nuclear power plants" — but that instead read, "nuclear power pants."
Oh, and there was the big run of truck magnets we did — before I started working here, I might add — that said "Digital Cable Simplifed." They had to reprint the entire order! I have one of the misspelled ones in my cubicle, just to make me feel necessary

My biggest typos are definitely homonyms. For example I certainly know the difference between “new” and “knew”. But I’ll be typing an email to my friend about his awesome new game system, but I’ll subconsciously type “knew” anyway.
Real life example: I really love the knew wii you got for Christmas. All I got for Christmas were some knew computer games.

I know I make tons of typos, sometimes I know something's misspelled but I'm just too lazy to fix it. When I was younger and would write little stories a lot, one of my biggest typos was "waste" instead of "waist"
So the sentence would look like (and this was supposed to be a very romantic scene) "he slid his arms around her waste". Yeeeah.

I always make the second letter after a cap also a cap.... Looks really werid

I'm constantly typing homtail instead of hotmail when I'm typing in my email. I also quite often accidentally type or write form instead of from or vice versa.

Earlier this month, my family was driving to see Niagara Cave. There is a typo on a billboard on the way there that says there is a "picinic" area. Does Yogi Bear happen to live there?
Th only time when I make a typo is because of three.. well four reasons and those are:
1. I am tired
2. I'm mad about something (I type fast when I'm mad)
3. I type lightly and sometimes the button for a word is skipped when I press too lightly.
4. I don't usually spell check or look over what I write and I really need to start doing that.

'Cucumber' is not one of those words that you can shorten.
"Cuke" is the correct shortened form.

A lot of people call me Wierdo, or Wier.
I see 'i;m' instead of 'I'm' all the time. (ack, that rhymed. Hehe )

I always feel obligated to fix typos right away. Usually my mistakes are simply due to the fact that I'm trying to type too fast. For example: "and" turns to "adn", "the" turns to "teh", "like" turns to "liek." It annoys me to no end.

I was looking at a flyer or something for a church or some sort of event that offers council for couples and it said spuse instead of spouse. I thought it was really funny because spuse just sounds funny.
I also mix up the homophones. I know the difference, but my right hand apparently does not. The other day I mixed up know and no. And don't even get me started on two, too, and to.
And in my German hw, I accidentally forgot the t in "ist" so it made it English "is" (Ist means he/she/it is by the way) That was embarrassing Sometimes I think I make more typos in Spanish and German than I do in English!
Someone spelt my username wrong on another forum... I've always wanted to say something, but I don't want to embarrass them. I've wondered if they ever made me into a mod if I could fix it without anyone noticing It actually doesn't bother me too much, I find it rather funny.
oh and punctuation! Commonly forgotten: ?, ), and. (yes my not correcting the above was intentional)
