I got 75 on my first try and 62 on my second.

If you know a better test, feel free to post it.

I'll take this, but it's too late tonight. Plus I'm sure mistakes will cost me. I tend to type fast, but make a lot of mistakes...especially on this keyboard with the with flat laptop like keys.

I won't take this, only because I disagree with it philosophically.
I said its hot outside let me go swimming in your eyes;
We been running for awhile. Why don't you lay dow, I'll make you smile.
I could never ask for nothing better than this;
It's just tequila and the beach, it's quite salty when we kiss.

It doesn't seem to have a negative effect for errors, I had two and got 85 WPM, but at the beginning I looked down and it was at about 92.
Get a little closer let it fold
Cut open my sternum and pull
My little ribs around you

I'm too lazy to do this plus my hormones have relaxed all of my muscles so now I move like a 95 year old woman

Do you mean the second one?  I figured it was changing because I was actually going back and correcting errors, lowering my WPM since as a principle I don't allow errors to stay there.

Don't be such a curmudgeon.  Take it for kicks.

Here's mine:
Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

But that's what editors are for. '__' Why make it easier on them, if they could write they'd be doing it too, but they can't so they can just sit in a room and correct my grammar.

Well I took it a few times and if I didn't stop to correct I got between 62-67 WPM. The one time I fixed as I typed I got 42 WPM. 42 is probably closer to what I type when I work. I might break out my old keyboard and take it again with that one since like I said I make more mistakes on this keyboard then I do that one because of the feel. It's like fondling a gymnasts' breasts on this thing. I also would more then likely type faster if I wasn't copying and writing from my head, but then again I know that's not the point of the test.  :P

If you are correcting errors, then yes it counts against, but if you don't correct, it doesn't seem to care, which makes it a little bit inaccurate. And you don't have to do more than one.

Even some of the "of age" ones are skewing a little young for you there, gramps.

Gymnast women have the bodies of young boys. They are as flat as a table, all muscular and no nice curves whatsoever. Totally unappealing

Yeah...Keyboard Flat, Gymnast's breasts also flat. I think that's what I was going for.

Only the good gymnasts are flat. I'm interested in the bad gymnasts.

I am, too. Nothing beats getting a Serbian reach around with a Korean lobster.

Mine was a Jesus quote, and it just had to be from KJV. "All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets." Just doesn't have the same ring as "Do unto others as you would like them to do to you."
I like to go down to the playground and watch the kids run and jump and scream, because they don't know I'm only using blanks.

Modern anime is a stagnant cesspool of regurgitated ideas.

Also, I did about 71 the first time, 83 the second. 60, 89, 63, 71.
