SC never affect me that way, but Photoshop does a lot.

I love drawing in Photoshop, and then when I switch to normal pencil/paper I keep trying to press crtl+Z when I make mistakes.

lololol. i do the exact same 2 things. the box selecting gets annoying sometimes when i screw up and i end up dragging something into a folder and i don't know what. (although its easily fixed with undo move)

you just gave me another place to spam my keys... I didnt remember this one.

and it is true starcraft on, a program without hotkeys is freaking annoying.. I have seriously uninstalled several programs for not having hotkeys... I then download alternatives to them. :D

I've told this story before, but at my worst I couldn't find my matching sock, so I thought to myself I could just control click the one I could find.

I spam drag boxes on desktop for no reason, like they were units or something.

i now shift-select multiple items that I want to move from folder to folder.

i spam select on text when I'm reading it.

I use windows key+ # to open up applications in my quick-launch toolbar.

I use ctrl-tab to cycle through windows in Chrome//Firefox. although now i think i'll start using crtl+# because that's so much more gosu XD

I started setting hotkeys for other stuff, like ctrl-alt-w for windows explorer and ctrl-alt-r for recycle bin

I dated a girl who did this all the time, she also spammed right click on her desktop when she was thinking. I kept trying to get her to play but she never would

Though its not a hotkey, the words "corsair DT" constantly pop into my head without basis, often this leads me to debate the effectiveness of Corsair DT in PVZ today.
The weird thing is - I don't play protoss AT ALL.
Oh, and when I'm sitting in class, I usually am tapping on the invisible keyboard on my desk "ALT + 1/2" or "1a2a3a". Other times, I catch myself remembering to make sure and scan for the zerg's third whilst I'm falling asleep in class.
