I type a lot while looking away from the monitors, helps me think / avoid the stimulus of the text on the screen. I can tell when I fat finger. It also pissed off the boomers at the bar who thought I was showing off as I was a) typing faster then they could, and b) not looking at the screen, c) sometimes looking blankly past them (I'm really not looking when I do this sometimes).

also I typed this entire thing that way without looking at it other than for red squiggles.
