Oh boy!!! are you (bym) one of those pple that type with their pointers???

December 21, 2008 9:48 pm at 9:48 pm #1175558brooklyn19Participanti can type normally and i didn’t get it. when was the last time “asdf” or “dfghj” were words? you just don’t make the connection.
come on honestly everyone – how long did it take each of you to figure it out?
i want everyone’s honest reply on this one!
December 22, 2008 12:11 am at 12:11 am #1175559anon for thisParticipantbrooklyn19, I really did figure it out right away. But I was required to take typing in high school.
December 22, 2008 12:18 am at 12:18 am #1175560asdfghjklParticipantbrooklyn19:lol thnx i guess!!!
December 22, 2008 12:26 am at 12:26 am #1175561brooklyn19Participantanon – so did i. were you required to memorize the keyboard. cuz i wasn’t, so maybe that’s why i’m a tad less educated.
December 22, 2008 1:11 am at 1:11 am #1175562anon for thisParticipantbrooklyn19, I wasn’t required to remember it, but did anyways in a vain attempt to improve my word-per-minute rate.
December 22, 2008 2:39 am at 2:39 am #1175563xeroxMemberwhen we had to practice typing in school, the teacher always said to type:
“a semicolin s l dkfjgh, asdfghjkl;, a;sldkfj….”
December 22, 2008 2:48 am at 2:48 am #1175564brooklyn19Participantlol xerox i honestly don’t remember. i cut that class in ninth grade.
December 22, 2008 3:39 am at 3:39 am #1175565anon for thisParticipantI should’ve cut typing too; my grades would’ve been about the same. Later when I was working I learned to touch-type fairly well though.
December 22, 2008 4:15 am at 4:15 am #1175566xeroxMembertyping class brought up my WHOLE average!!! it was so worth that i didn’t skip!!
December 22, 2008 4:27 am at 4:27 am #1175567brooklyn19Participantlol don’t worry i got credit for that class. i waltzed through high school :} (with pull… i know – it’s nauseous…)
December 22, 2008 4:50 am at 4:50 am #1175568beaconParticipantWonder which HS you went to… Sounds like mine! 🙂
December 22, 2008 5:13 am at 5:13 am #1175569brooklyn19Participantyeah and every other private school out there
December 22, 2008 10:03 am at 10:03 am #1175570intellegentMemberbrooklyn19,
I didn’t figure it out. It was obvious. I tought myself how to type on my own way before high school with a program that was probably made in 1941. But I used the course in high school to improve my speed. My accuracy is pretty bad though. I type 2 letters forward on one backspace! LOL!
“lol don’t worry i got credit for that class. i waltzed through high school :} (with pull… i know – it’s nauseous…)”
Are you accusing yourself of being lazy or only boys who don’t take english? 🙂
December 22, 2008 6:46 pm at 6:46 pm #1175571brooklyn19Participanthey i probably learned less ANYTHING than yeshiva guys do english. never said i didn’t take advantage of situations :} of course i’m lazy! i’m in college and i’m still lazy!
December 22, 2008 7:21 pm at 7:21 pm #1175572intellegentMemberbrooklyn19
Well don’t worry, I probably make you look studious.
December 22, 2008 7:33 pm at 7:33 pm #1175573myshadowMemberI’m a touch typist n I never would have figured that out
December 22, 2008 8:00 pm at 8:00 pm #1175574SJSinNYCMemberintellegent, you would make look studious.
I was always able to do no work and get by just fine. .
One year, I was reading a book in class, when my friend turned around and asked if I was ready for the chemistry test we were taking in 15 minutess. I looked at her confused and said “I’m not taking chemistry this year.” She was rolling on the floor laughing because yes, indeed I was.
December 22, 2008 8:05 pm at 8:05 pm #1175575squeakParticipantintel: What typing program was there in 1941? Or were you just saying that it is old?
December 22, 2008 8:08 pm at 8:08 pm #1175576Pashuteh YidMemberSJS, two comments:
First, somehow when I read your name, it always comes across as SJ Sin NYC. I think the sin part gets me nervous. (I know its supposed to be SJS in NYC.)
Second, my wife tells me that in her HS class years ago it was the day of a regents, and she was in the room frantically cramming for the exam in the remaining minutes. next to her she sees a girl as calm as can be relaxing and combing her hair. My wife asked her aren’t you nervous? She said, no, not at all, we are all going to get married, anyway.
(I guess those were in the days before the shidduch crisis.)
December 22, 2008 8:08 pm at 8:08 pm #1175577brooklyn19Participantlol i didn’t say i was spaced out. i just didn’t give a hoot about school. i broke the school’s record in lack of attendance. lol and my school is NOT known to be into it at all. the Prospect Park girls used to get mad at us when they saw us strolling home from school – not a book in sight…
December 22, 2008 8:13 pm at 8:13 pm #1175578AnonymousInactiveyeshiva guys are lazy? cant be
December 22, 2008 8:13 pm at 8:13 pm #1175579brooklyn19ParticipantPashuteh Yid – i actually just laughed SO loud from that comment on SJS’s name. thanks!!!!
December 22, 2008 8:21 pm at 8:21 pm #1175580AnonymousInactivebk19 LSL
December 22, 2008 8:21 pm at 8:21 pm #1175581SJSinNYCMemberPashuteh Yid, I try not to sin 🙂
Your wife’s story made me laugh.
I had some great friends who would, for about 5 minutes before the exam, tell me almost everything I needed to know to pass. The rest I would fabricate into a B+ average. I even got plenty of As. [Mostly math and russian – math comes naturally and russian was just a lot of fun]

asdfghjkl:$$i know, it’s so annoying when that happens$$
I am not a fan of your new signature. It makes the post hard to read. If I was as mean as eveybody always writes, you probably would not see your posts being approved – at least not by this moderator. YW Moderator-72
January 16, 2009 7:05 pm at 7:05 pm #1175606qwertyuiopMembermod72:$$you should be happy with what you have, at least my signatture isn’t this:shasud(my post)idecbci$$and if you really want me to stop doing it, then i’ll stop but i never said you were mean, even when evrybody else did i said that you were nice, except about your coffee$$
not asking you to stop. I am hoping that you will come to your senses will stop without being asked. have a wonderful Shabbos. YW Moderator-72
January 16, 2009 7:07 pm at 7:07 pm #1175607kapustaParticipantmod72 your so sweet its just oozing out… now its time to replenish the supply though… JK, have a great Shabbos

January 16, 2009 7:15 pm at 7:15 pm #1175609qwertyuiopMembermod72:$$i just caught two mistakes, but i wont bore everybody$$
