You are free to believe whatever you want. There are two comments posted back-to-back because I switched to a keyboard and decided to write them both while I was on the keyboard. Writing in Word, with its autocorrect features, makes producing relatively error-free prose fairly easy. Also, typing at 74 words per minute is not particularly fast—I typically type faster than that. There's no question that I type faster than average though; it's a hazard of writing being a central part of my job. I find it funny that four quickly written paragraphs seem so unbelievable to you that it makes you question reality.

Regardless, I have no intention of continuing to justify how quickly I write. This conversation is pointless.

You're doubling down on the most implausible details, even the ones I fudged in your favor (wpm), and that's just silly. If that's truly what a stream of consciousness looks like from you, and if microsoft word really is (despite all of human history serving as a counter example) helpful to you (I loathe that software more than words can convey), then you truly are the Michael Phelps of internet commenting, and I suppose I commend you for that.

Have a good day, and I mean that sincerely, because this is a really stupid hill for me to be trying this hard to die on, and you seem nice.

I appreciate you letting this go. It does seem pretty silly to be getting upset about, and I'm speaking for myself as well. I can understand why it seems unlikely. Don't worry, I don't usually bust out my Ghost in the Shell fingers for Lemmy posts.
