To save you time from reading, if you are lazy: they conclude that mousing is, with some facts that seem compelling.

I'm not sure that I buy it, though. But eh? It's interesting.

In my opinion, it's all situational.  Some programs flow very well with just the keyboard.  :P
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

Yeah.. I think it comes down to habits.

With a keyboard, I have perhaps 30 keys that I can hit without even moving my wrists. With my mouse, five. Not to mention, to get to my mouse, I probably have to move my wrists. Note, I haven't RTFA'd yet.

In looking at the first few lines, I remember Super+R was redo in MSPaint at some point (if not still). I liked that.

You might be right about that, Joe.

It depends on whether the subject is Korean or not.

I seen a mouse run REAL fast, I've never seen a keyboard move on its own accord.

BUT ... once my buddy stomped on poor little rattoulie, the mouse didn't move own its own either :(.  Poor mother fucking rattoulie.

One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.
