I sometimes misread "Today" as "Toady". Is it a sign of something bad happening to me?

[King DZA]

Sounds like cancer.

[Angel Of Death]

Sounds like cancer.

Yeah. You probably have 3 months to live. Say goodbye to your loved ones while you still can.

[SirAaronIII]

I thought that was the thing where your ears turn blue and then your toes start to feel tingly.

No, he has about 4.

...

Its been nice knowing you for the last 30 or so Seconds.

[SHAD0Wdump]

What is amazing is this has come up in the past, probably with the same thread title.
 I honestly thought someone necroed this into existence.

[Shinotsa]

Happens to me all the time. Have a PM from someone who did the same.

...

Should I get myself checked?

[Flying Dice]

Not really that surprising, considering the only difference is the position of two letters.

[Muz]

People usually read the first and last lterrs of a word and then galnce through the ones in the midle to deretmine the word. In your mind, Toady probably has a higher rakning than Today so your brain auto-matches the T and Y as Toady, and you only realize it when you find that it doesn't fit in context. Sometimes when people say that a large proportion of the population are dyslexic, I wonder if people are dylexic by the nature of how they read.

It's Lupus.

I think you're vastly underestimating the seriousness of this situation.

[Twi]

No, muxecoid, you are not in any stage of cancer, you are simply developing superpowers. It's normal, and you'll get over it in a thousand years or so.

On a more serious note, I'd go with Muz's explanation. I'm not a pyschologist. I don't know if he (or she) is either, but that explanation makes sense.

[Ottofar]

Do the handstand test.

Prop yourself up on your hands.

Did everything go black, or did you have trouble breathing?

It's pretty much as Muz said; we notice the first and last letters of each word and fill in the rest, hence why sentences that make no sense if read carefully can still appear normal to a superficial glance, extremely if the wards ale compromised of stellar ladders.
