Personally I typically type like that (and like this) due to typing like I speak

Stilted with many gaps

Sometimes with a lot of parentheses due to the scatter shot nature of my brain

But that's a conversation for another time

Okay there, Kerouac.

Yeah, I see people use commas as pauses where commas definitely aren't supposed to go and that make no sense whatsoever (to me, anyway, but I know not everyone has the same education, resources, etc.) all the time. I think that's part of what's going on here.

It sounds like our brains work very similarly, fellow random-parentheses-using scatterbrain! I'm both glad I'm not alone and also sad that you experience this frustrating shit, too, haha. I feel for you.

I much prefer the way you break up your thoughts, by the way. It flows better, makes more sense, and reads in my head voice more like it would if you were speaking (to me, anyway!)

So your speaking voice is grating, and you type the same way on purpose? Why? Just to mentally exhaust everyone around you? Is this a BDSM thing?
