For me, I'm always typing "than" when I mean "that" and vice-versa. More of my typos seem to be brain farts than slips of the fingers. A lot of them involve N and T for some reason.

As for finger slips, my most common ones are u/i, i/o, and s/d. I've typed "ass" instead of "add" before. Also double capitals because the shift keys on this keyboard suck.

Things like that gradually convince me that I may be diagnosed with a mild case of dyslexia.

Last view: 6143 days 		I thought business was spelled "buisness" forever. I guess having "ui" represent a "short i" sound made more sense to me than the i being silent...

And I have trouble with -ant and -ent words and "separate". Damn English and its damn schwas...

"Organism" as "Orgasm", "Yes" as "Urd", "Thumb" as "thump".

There are probably some other weird ones, as well.

I get the same feeling about sentences I write, not about individual words. (In english.)

Though, I probably do make a lot of typos while writing, but it is most likely slips of the fingers, either because I try to type as fast as possible/because I'm tired/ or drunk. If some of them come through, it is most likely because I couldn't care less, which is most 'm likely to happen when I'm drunk. (Though, actually, I'm drunk right now, but looking at this post, you might not think so..)
