You can set that menu to only respond to the keyboard keys from the gameplay menu.

The good old spawning 10 overlords instead of corruptors, turns out a good anti-Colossus unit, an OL does not make.

Whatever i'm doing involving sentries, i never fail to accidentally hit 'g' at least two separate times.

I don't misclick too often, because of hotkeys, but sometimes when shift-patrolling in my opponent's base i click outside their base and my probe stops trying to get to the spot outside the base.

Plus the rare sniping own units.
"Hey an observer! Lets attack it with my whole army" *Click* "... did i just kill my own observer?"

The sole reason I don't make Ravens.
No, not screwing up in GSL but landing vikings.

I always think I accidentally overstim my marines. Like always when I move them around my hand goes near 456 to macro aaaaadda or so and then I'm always nervous: "did I just stim?"
Freaks me out. Blizzard: move stop command to O or P and put stim to S, ty.

Heres the story of an epic misclick from a friend I was 1v1ing.

He had beat me the last time we played (even though it was the only time), because I was trying a new cheesy ghost build (he was toss).

So I called for a rematch on Xel'naga Caverns a few days later. We we're about 20 min in or so. I had taken my third, which was the gold in the middle. I decided to make it a PF, since I figured it would be in his attack path. Then he accidently moves (not attack move) to my natural (prob hadnt scouted my third). So my PF and the rest of my army tore up his stalkers, zealots and collosi. I was orchestrating a drop in his main, so I didnt even see what had happened! He ended up ragequitting/leaving vent. I probably would have won anyway judging by our unit compositions/post game stats, but it was still hilarious

When attempting to build something, i quickly click worker, click to move it to destination and build something. However, i often doubleclick a worker,selecting them all, and move them all away.....

Once I was playing in the TSL semifinals and I accidentally hit escape on a building rather than the unit to cancel my command center. Whoops. :r

I swapped my mouse keys around a week ago for my new left handed mouse. Took me 20 games or so to iron out all the misclicks. That first game was WICKEDLY frustrating and hilarious.

Lol kinda sounds like the time I used Vortex on my own army when I was trying to lure the enemy into it. He proceeded to kill my third while I was stuck in it, pretty much cost me the game.

Had a pretty bad misclick yesterday where I accidently sniped my own CC while trying to deal with a drop...

I could only laugh at myself.

I can't remember exactly what I was trying to do but I had a group of like 20ish banelings selected and for whatever reason I hit the hotkey to have them all detonate. It was STOOPS and it was so weird I couldn't even understand why the hell I did it and i just sat in my chair for like 5 seconds not doing anything wondering what I had just done.

in your options menu, theres a button to disable those menus in the top left. that way they only open with the respective f buttons

edit: sorry, looks like i was beaten by a few people already...

I did the same thing in a really big tournament. Isn't that the worst?

happens sooooooo way too often. so awesome to have your own toss deathball oneshot one of your crucial colossi.

I do that too

Also sometimes I press S instead of A and my a-move turns into "stop->move behind that army without shooting" - it's incredible how fast that can cost you your army.
