Because I use computers for a good 8-9 hours a day, I often find myself ctrl-z'ing or Apple z'ing my actions in an attempt to correct what I've just done.
I mis-cut a carrot in the kitchen on Saturday and instantly did a mental ctrl-z.
Sometimes when I'm drawing, instead of reaching for the eraser, my left thumb and forefinger twitch.

Could be worse, I could be trying to cut and paste the hamster...

Anyone else experience this?

I used to hang out on IRC all the time, back in the days before instant messaging was super popular.

Anyway, so I'd hang out in various channels and hold various /msg conversations with people. On IRC, most text you enter appears like this to the channel or user:

<jonnythan> hello my name is jon

however, using /me at the beginning of your line makes it like this:

* jonnythan jumps for joy

So anyway, I used to IRC so much that I'd "/me" everything I did. When I opened a door, "me opens the door" popped into my head. If I hurt my toe, I would immedately think "me hurts his toe."

It was bizarre.

Yeah, after bouts of online 'Call Of Duty', I'd expect my housemates to jump out of rooms and blast me full of holes!

At work, my housemate, a big online gamer, pressed M to bring up a map. He didn't even know what the map was for!

Bad.
