i guess this is kind of related, but as an undergrad i was playing a looooot of cs, more than i'd like to admit, and when i'd be bored in class i used to think 'timeleft' then look at the clock

I spam select text, icons, etc.

Sometimes I spam 1a2a3a4a5a.

Also, not from SC but rather from FPS games, my left hand naturally rests itself with pinky on control, ring-finger on a, middle finger on w, index finer on d, and thumb on spacebar. =P

I actually downloaded Qliner Hotkey or something like that, now I open all my programs with hotkeys, in linux it was easy to set up but in xp having to make shortcuts to add a hotkey to a program is kind of annoying. :D

When I play halo 3 I constantly spam switch weapons, smack and jump.

While playing Wolfenstein ET I spam 1234123412341234123412341234 because it switches weapons.

not exactly starcraft related, but when i don't know where something in is in the kitchen for example i always think, well i guess ill have to use the search function to find it. Then i realise there aren't any search function so i think damn IRL needs a patch.

i do the highlighting thing, too. sometimes it's for a practical purpose, since it makes certain text easier to read. it also keeps track of where you're at.

and also playing a lot of games has affected my associations with certain terms.

CS = counter strike, not computer science. when it's referred to as the latter, i have to think about it a little

BO = build order, not body odor
DT = dark templar, not downtown
4v4 is a battle of who has the better computer.

I customized all my Opera hotkeys to revolve around starcraft hand positions. So now when I browse, I have my left hand over the left side of the keyboard (with everything I need to do accessible there) and my right hand on my house. That is probably why I won't switch from using Opera any time soon.

Just in the case you aren't joking, it's from playing starcraft.

I just type faster so I have to tell people "No I didn't do a course to learn faster typing" all the time.

Weird @ so many people with hotkeying 24/7. I guess I'm more of an "old-schooler" I don't even use the function keys and only use hotkeys for the most common upgrades (forge, goon range, zeal legs). Rest I do with mouse. I tend to think this improved my mouse accuracy a fair bit, so I navigate Windows with mouse too.
Complete the cycle!
