After you repeat a word a certain amount of times , it just sounds wierd , like wtf.

Like I was looking at something green , and when I was going to write green im like green wtf what kinda word is that , then I had to check twice if thats how you spell it and if it existed..

It happens to me , alot.

Haha, sometimes it happens to me.
Even though I know the spelling of a certain word well, it just looks weird and I need to check up a dictionary.

oo I remember talking about this in another topic.. sometimes I forget how to spell the word "of"!! Because it just sounds weird, and then I'm not sure if I'm spelling it correctly!

goshh, happens to me so often that I can't think of an example. If I repeat the word in my head a lot or see it a lot, I just think of it as being not real or funny or something.

haha happens to me a lot. The word itself looks so strange even though it's normal but sometimes, I just think to myself, whoa, what's wrong with me today.

Yep, everyday there will be some sort of work that I think looks screwed up. Todays word was "phone", I mean, what's up with it? But also with letters, I look at them and just go, "what the hell, these are just a bunch of freakin' lines and curves."

It wasn't about the word puzzled, there was a double negative in there. "whether or not list is a word or not"

It happens all the time.. when I write a word too much. Like say I have a word, or a phrase, and I'm going to use it on a layout but I'm trying to find the right font. So I go up and down my font list looking for the perfect font, and sooner or later the word just doesn't look like itself anymore.
