i say gosu and GG all the time too. Like, if i'm late to class with some friends, i might be like GEE GEE and they have no idea wat it means so they laugh like wtf and my friend got hooked onto saying EF EF. lolz.

I spell my words correctly. However, I have gotten used to typing korean faces all the time

^^

Every time I see a progamer's ID, I immediately think of their real name in my head. So, when I read SlayerS_BoxeR, I'm always hearing/thinking Im Yohwan in my head.

Then a few years ago (I guess this was my sophomore year of highschool), I was in Spanish and we were studying the names of colours in Spanish. The teacher called on me to say the name of the colour in English and then Spanish. The very first colour was yellow and I immediately said "Hong Jin Ho", but I sort of caught myself half way, and when I started getting the weird looks, I pretended like I said "Hold on a minute" and acted like I was looking through my bag for something.

Doesn't have anything to do with typing, but it was pretty bad anyhow.

It's hard to explain things like that to people who don't have any idea what you're talking about...

When I was a little psychotic nearly a year ago, I would try to dodge cars on traffic, people in my hallway, thinking I was a marine avoiding lurker spikes Or when I'm running, a zealot running through sunks and shit.


really man, you should get that checked out.

You guys are insane.

The most I've ever had to do was explain "gosu" to a good highschool friend of mine, who now knows at college a few fob Koreans who play SC (so I was thinking he might know what it meant).

I remember reading a Wiki entry on FTW, and it actually WAS meant to be WTF backwards. It was something about stating a greater degree of confusion than normally caused by a WTF. Weird, huh?

Wikipedia is not a 100% viable source anyway. That in itself could be taken from a rumor that flew around.

No, I choose not to live life in autopilot, foolish mistakes like those are ultra stupid. I prefer to spend my days reveling with friends and drinking lots of water so as to keep my hydration levels up after all this reveling.

I've never been affected in such a way, I'd go and get myself checked out medically and physically if such a thing happened.
