Not really so much a habit, but my typing has improved A LOT. I've also taken to proof reading a lot more.

Chatroom speak. I used to type to people in AIM with perfect spelling and punctuation, and I rarely used acronyms at all. When I started frequenting CBC, though, I had to keep up, so my AIM conversations turned into this mess:

- so there was this girl
- the other day
- who was really upset about something
- so I asked her what was wrong, and she was like
- "I dunno my head just hurts really bad for some reason"
- so I was like aww and found her some medicine.

That's not an actual story, just very much like some of the boring shit I talk about sometimes. But yeah, I'm trying to break myself of the habit. I've just gotten really enter happy. sad.gif

I've picked up the habit of being online too much.

I don't know if this counts but whenever I hear the word TACT now, I cringe a little.

^ I would probably have learned to actually write all my words out, because cBers get annoyed with annoying typers. And "imo" means "in my opinion". =]


As for me, I constantly check up on new posts now. Thanks cB, for making me an even bigger loser. =P

"In my opinion."

That's improvement? :| Maybe improved speed, but not improved grammatical correctness.

I've cleaned up my typing quite a bit since I first came here.

I used to never touch the shift key, or any punctuation, and unicode characters used to be scattered throughout my text.
