I've never done that either, however my wife is sometimes confused by my grocery list:

Code: Select all

$list = array(
                array('item' => 'razors', 'qty' => 12),
                array('item' => 'shaving cream', 'qty' => 2),
                array('item' => 'beer', 'qty' => 24),
);

Sometimes when someone asks me "are you coming with us today or tomorrow" I answer 'yes'.

Once I had a boss called Vlad, and I repeatedly found myself typing 'intvlad()' instead of 'intval()'

Sometimes when talking to people over IM I like to say:

It's either this || that.

Or you need to do this && that.

I don't do it unconsciously though.

I always use != when arguing with people over an online chat. Most people are like 'what the hell?'

Also I now use <geek></geek> tags when typing something overly geeky to my computer illiterate friends... strangely it helps :dubious:
