You know you're a spanko when you have trouble typing the following words correctly on the first try:
Spanish
Spanning
and Spanakopita?? Forget it.
My fingers automatically hit s-p-a-n-k unless I'm very careful and deliberate when I type these words. Spell check won't always save me, so if I'm writing a vanilla email about a foreign language, bridges, or Greek recipes, I have to remember to proofread before hitting send.
Try it out. Do you find yourself typing "spank" even when you don't intend to or am I the only one?

ha... can totally identify with this. And since every possible derivation of spanking... spanko, spankee, spanker, etc... they're easy to miss.

No, you are not the only one. I have typed spanking instead of speaking, on occasion, along with the others you mentioned. All part of our wiring, I guess! -- Erica
Hey Pixie-
I too have done the same thing from time to time and have also turned in some papers without doing a really good proof reading of them and left the words spanking in place of something else. Thankfully my proffesor only smiled at my missed typo and told me to proof read next time. I think we are just hardwired to think about spankings and getting spanked even in our subconcious minds.

I think most of us have this problem. We usually also get a charge out of just looking up the word "spank" in Webster's dictionary. You know you REALLY have it bad when you're doing a seek-a-word puzzle or similar game and just seeing those five letters (S,P,A,N,K) in close proximity on the board gets you going. (HUGS)
Pixie--you're definitely not alone in this one.
Heck, I have trouble typing, period. My mind always seems to be further ahead in the sentence than my typing fingers, and when I go back and re-read what I just typed, I find that I've left out a word or two entirely.....

I don't seem to have that problem, but then I don't do vast amounts of typing every day. However, I do have to be careful about typing anything beginning with S into my Google search box if anyone is looking over my shoulder!
(Guess I should delete my history more often.)
Are you kidding!
I can't even speak spankish.

i have this issue at work sometimes lol. im a receptionist in the dr's office. when we sched appts we have to put comments in of what the patient is coming in for. there have been a few times ive had to backspace lol.. i work with a good group of people and Dr's so even if i did accidentally let one slip they'd just tease me and think nothing of it.
When I pick up the phone I use to say "Funbun speaking".
And once I said "Funbun spanking.."
Really happened and the person at the other side of the line got a bit confused.. Asked if I could repeat my name. And than I was "Speaking" again.
XXX Funbun
Yes!!! I'm working on resumes and applications for vanilla jobs and I keep typing that I speak "spankish." Thank goodness spankish is not a real word and the spell check immediately picks it up. Hehe.
lol I loved Will's response: Spankish. We do speak/write/think our own language, that is for sure......
I loved Will's response: we do all speak "Spankish" at times, that's for sure.
i doubt if i had done that or not but i think most spanko like me and you do it cause we are into spanking and such have spanking on our mind or thinking about it so which why for typo
which is why i think you do it cause you have spanking on ya mind and thinking of spanking or realy wansted to be spank.
that my opinion if iam wrong heck spank me lol
mike
Oh, all the time. I dread to think how many vanilla emails I've managed to send this summer with a kinky typo in. I daren't really check. x
Yep, me too!
It doesn't happen to me that often, but perhaps it is more driven by how often you TYPE spanking rather than how often you think about it?

I have an uncle in Louisiana who owns half a brewery and sports bar. He's been trying out a new micro brew recipe based on an old Bavarian lager beer. He's been wanting me to fly in and spend a long & fun weekend while trying out his new recipes and to see family I've not seen since I was about 12 years old.
When I returned an E-mail to him over the holidays, I inadvertently typed the word "Flogger" instead of "Lager,"(Logger). I'm greatful that my spell and grammar check caught it before I sent it.
Pixie, Don't even think about reconsidering your grinning from the sidelines. You know how much I like it when you display a sassy brat attitude. I've seen you do that in plenty of your vids. You remember how much I love a willful and bratty personality in a woman who knows she's about to be spanked or strapped~wink.
Have a great week.
Razor
Definitely not alone on this one Pixie...
I swear my fingers have a mind of their own sometimes and I just know the one time i don't catch it will be when it goes out in the most vanilla email possible...
Ah yes, the pheomenon of not striking the proper key, especially when talking about spanking. Many times I've found myself talking about a "blostering" some young lady received (instead of blistering),
a good wakkoping (instead of walloping) across someone's knee,
and finally a proper trashing (rather than thrashing). In my case the combination of a retired, aging disciplinarian plus the unavoidable arthritis in my hands (especially in the fingers) often result in some silly typo or other.
Fortunately the folks I correspond with regularly are able to read typosese (whew) and so my intent remains intact, although some letters are wrong or missing altogether.
Actually I'd much rather be tanning more bottoms that writing about it, but as the wise man once said "whatchagonnado?"
Warm hugs Pixie! SS.
Todd & Suzy - the one good thing is that spellcheck at least picks up spanko and spankee. With spanker, you're sunk!
Erica - I just tested "speaking" out and yes, my fingers wanted to type spanking there too.
Alex - I think I'd blush a million times over if my professor ever found a spanking typo!!
007 - I'm the same way. All I have to see is S,P, and K together and my mind fills in the blanks. :)
Dr. Ken - your comments have always come out very clearly worded, but perhaps that's because we are discussing a very familiar topic? :)
Steve (uk) - Oooh! Definitely time to do a history delete and I'd shut that auto-fill feature off if you're using a shared computer!
Will - Hehehe. I think you speak spankish quite well.
Emily - I am envisioning the doctor pulling up the patient's chart and reading, "so, you're here for a spanking today ... Hmmm. Well this is going to sting a little ..."
Funbun - That is quite a slip! And there's no spellcheck or backspace when you're speaking.
Chloe - Hahaha! You never know. Being well versed in spankish could be a very valuable skill in the officeplace.
Dave - Definitely. We could write our own dictionary.
mike - I don't think it's necessarily a matter of spanking being on the mind as much as a case of how often we type the word spank and other related terms. It's like a case of muscle memory. The fingers just naturally fly to those keys after having done so a thousand times before.
Amy - Gah. That is nerve wracking. I probably wouldn't check either.
Anonymous - I was pretty sure I wasn't the only one!
Mark - Yep! And I know I for one tend to type it pretty often.
Razor - Maybe you could start a little family business and open a BDSM theme bar - Lagers & Floggers :)
Dixie - Of course. Isn't that always the way?
Serial Spanker - Your comments too have always come across clearly, but I'd probably giggle if you promised me a blostering. But then again my giggles would likely earn me a second blistering (or blostering as the case may be).
An S&M bar?...Yuck!...Lol.
Oh you're so getting your bratty bottom smacked the next time I see ya...Lol.
In my job as a school guidance counselor, I have SO many times caught myself inadvertently typing an email to a teacher, inquiring about a student's performance in "Spankish" class. To my knowledge, I've never done it and not caught it ... so far....
And yes, it's a school where the kids wear uniforms!
