On average, do you think you type more words than you actually say?

Like in real life speaking? For me I'd guess I type on the internet more than twice the amount of words I actually say. Just wondering.

I read the question wrong and put "It's about the same."

But I do way more talking face to face.

Yes. I frequently blog, spend time on GS, type stuff in google/wiki, and spend more time on the computer in general. i don't talk too much because my family is pretty boring. if I was still in school right now, then i'd talk a lot more than type.

It depends. If I have school, then yes. But I've finished for the year now, so if I just stay in for the day and go on in the internet, yes I probably do. There's only a couple of people at home to talk to.

Not at all. I talk way more, though it does depend on the person I'm talking to and the conversation we're having, but there's no way I type more than I speak.

Yep, pretty much. I am not antisocial or anything, I am just one of the guys that doesnt say anything if there is nothing to say. Plus, I absolutely hate small talk...I find it near-insulting to be quite honest. I will participate, of course, but I am not going to be "ooooh, lovely weather we be having, chums!".

And yes, I type a lot. Been doing dozens of cover letters and resumes each week, in addition to the few hours I type stuff on here. Some of my posts can get quite long and semi-lecture-ish so it can go on for like 500+ words.

Like today, I went to visit my grandpop with my dad I think I laughed five times, and said maybe eight sentences.

I talk way more than I type. Even if I typed an essay for every post I would still talk way more than I type. And I don't talk all the time. It's just that talking is a lot more frequent...

Nope. I talk more than I type. If I were speaking....the words would be way longer than I type.

About even. My posts and such are usually brief and to the point, but irl I barely talk unless I'm at work or talking to my brother.
