Is it easy for you to read this? De-focus a little.

It's how my posts look in their first draft.

I can read it just as fast as normal text. I've seen things like that before and just assumed that everyone could read it just fine. I thought the point was to make people amazed at the fact that they can actually read the text even when the middle letters are rearranged, as long as the first and last letter is right.

I can read it, but not quite as fast as normal and I noticed my eyes jump around each word, I guess because I read by word shape usually more than the letters in the word.

I could read it, but not as fast as my normal reading speed. Normally, I take in sentences at a glance. I had to pause a couple of times with the scrambled text.

anybody can do this quickly. nothing to do with being an "aspie".

I actually takes me a while to understand that it was scrambled. But I don't know if it's something to do with Aspie, is just that you actually don't read all the letter in a sentence as you don't listen to all sound in a conversation. Actually I usually scramble word when I wrote my self.

I can quite easily read it, although I couldn't decipher the word "scrwey" at all, and still can't. Occasionally I hit a wrong sound and I'll re-say the word but overall it's fairly readable. Being the Grammar Nazi I am, it does irritate me.

^ That's interesting. I, too, suffer from the Grammar Nazi Bug but I found this kind of writing to be liberating rather than irritating. It frees me from the "must check that every letter is in exactly the right place" syndrome that makes me grimace and twitch.

I think our Grammar Nazi-ism may be related to our strong sense of "social justice" and tendency to obey laws (even those that nobody else does (like traffic walk signals in major US cities)).

I think a good part of my Grammar Nazism is due to the superiority complex I've cultivated. I mean, there's a reason it's called "spelling something wrong" and if I start doing it too then I'll be like them.

Some rules I can be very vocal in defending, while others I don't care much for. For example, "No running in the hallway" isn't something I subscribe to.
