Annoying typists

[stek]

It sounds like you're referring to the way the people of Newcastle say "Newcastle". As it's their town, they get to decide how it's pronounced

Like Manchestoh!

Older folks pronounce my home town of Bolton as Bowton, 'Bow' to rhyme with 'Now'. Nearby Walkden is pronounced 'Wogg-din'.

They sort of "strike" the key too loudly like they want everyone to know that they are typing so therefore must be being productive.

Can you keep it down please, your typing is doing my head in!!!

Some clown who sits behind me in this place is typing far too aggressively and is absolutely tw@tting his space key, ******* dimwitted plum.

You seem stressed out, maybe a holiday is in order before you kill someone.

Fair point.

I'm wondering if I'm the only person who thinks this?

I hate the way some people type. They sort of "strike" the key too loudly like they want everyone to know that they are typing so therefore must be being productive.

Really effs me off. Also some people say Newcastle weird but I can't accurately describe what's wrong with how they say it, it is sort of said as all one word hurriedly and has their tone goes up ever so slightly when they speak the "castle" part....

I worked in the US on a software development team of 50/50 Brits and Americans. All the American programmers could touch type properly, and had been taught to do so at college etc, and not a single British coder could. The Brits sill produced more and better code though. Funny cultural difference. The Brits could all swim properly and most of the Americans couldn't swim a breadth, another remarkable difference. Funny old world.
